how to disprove magnetic pole shift.

Please note, this is not about the magnetic poles just moving around a little or them gradually flipping in a regular fashion. This video is meant to related to the dramatic magnetic pole shift theories that are rampant on youtube, based on geological evidence which may be misinterpreted.

Of course the poles can move around. The magnetic poles can flip. I'm talking about them flipping over a matter of years, not centuries.

  • This is very ingenius, but to disprove past flipping, you need to show that the solidified particles of an existing rock layer can influence the particles of each new layer of magma as it cools on top. If this were the case, each subsequent deposited layer would be flipped. Actually, the flipping is evident in rocks throughout the world associated by time, not depositional event. In another words, rocks in India agree with South America through time and relative to global magnetic orientation.

  • There are a few things you've said which I am unsure about and I'm not in any position to check. I mean, geez, I do experiments in my kitchen.

    Firstly, wouldn't magma demagnetise anything it's laid over with it's intense heat? I was mainly thinking about sedimentary with this.

    Secondly, if the flipping was based on time, wouldn't it be more irregular as deposition isn't always regular. Maybe I've just seen very regular samples. I could buy that

  • Hi Peter, I gave your video a 5 stars Honest I did,

    Dont know why it did'nt change the rating average

  • the rating might take time to appear. I wouldn't worry about it too much. :)

  • hmm. You're saying the magnetic field of the earth flips with every new layer of magnetic material?

    ....

    well, the only way I can see that working is if the material that made up the magnetic field was found mostly on the surface of the earth.

    Though, you might actually be right. I, personally, haven't heard of anyone testing the strength of magnetic fields deep underground.

    I know it's highly likely that someone has but I don't think I should presume too much.

  • @ScienceIsStupid You are right. The shifting isn't seen very often. Several layers thick with thousands continue to point same direction, so his magnet experiment is not correct for how the layers interact.

    First off, the lava is not magnetized, they haven't been turned into magnets themselves, they carry negligible magnitized field to invoke any attraction to other free flowing metals. His experiment would only be relevant if lava rocks wre magnitized, and its not.

  • Magnet pole shift occurs. even a little. I'm a pilot. You can see it on a sectional chart. The isogenic lines are used to correct this so we use our magnetic compass in airplanes and we can correct it to true north (the actual geographical north pole) when plotting flights. And it keeps changing. Right now magnetic north is in Siberia. Geographical north is set literally at the top of the north pole. As for your compass test, the iron in the harden lava layers not magnets (magnetized).

  • Hey genius Magnetic poles have shifted 10 degrees already. Airports have had to rename and reline for the shifting. Magnetic pole shift is a fact. It is gradual now and continuing. To debate it is not real makes one a moron. Call your airport they will confirm if you need the help understanding.

  • The magnetic field is fliping the pole is racng towards siberia at 69km a year!!why people dont know about this???

  • According to computer models it can happen over 1000years, according to lava flows on an average of 300 000yr. The last one was 700 000yr ago. If your experiment was true for lava flows it would have showed a revisal ever time lava flowed, which is not the case. There has been thousands of flows over the last 700 000yrs. Lava does not equal water. But thier is alot of bogus information on these flip videos, atleast you get poeple to think.
