Interesting topic. Thanks! One note: Hawaii is not formed by forces at a plate boundary. It's islands are a result of a stationary hot spot under the moving Pacific plate above.

The chockstone at Kjeragbolten is not sandstone but granite as is the massive Pulpit Rock, which is on the other side of Lysefjord.

Ok, but how did my local mechanic's crack not make it on the list? It's worth adding.

Thanks, Top Fives.

Beautiful. Thank you.

Anyone else old enough to remember the 1965 Sci-Fi movie "The Crack In The World"?

Hi morning my favorite weatherman. San Fernando Trinidad here. We have thunder and rain here this morning.

I live in Northen Europe's Scandinavian cold Pohjola, here is beautiful nature with forests, thousands of lakes and high hills in Lapland. I've visited in Lapland and Norway on this year's july, Norway is our beautiful country with an arctic sea and high AMAZING snowy mountains with cool waterfalls. When I was in Norway there I have feel I am really small human in this BIG world. Next time when I'll visit in Norway I will visit to see that crack rock between mountains it looks awesome place with beautiful view of mountains. By the way I believe there is most wided cracks in Africa the center of Earth. I really love living here in Scandinavian Finland where's no much of earthquakes and cracks. 🌍🏞🌊🏔🇧🇻🇫🇮

Interesting topic, Love it!

I snorkeled that crack in Iceland. So clear it feels like you are flying.

TY very interesting 🧐 📚📚📚

Didn't know bout these thanks!interesting

Amazing

Thanks sir

"Crack in the Ground" is really cool. It's apart of the Newberry Caldera. From a distance, you can't really see it. Most of the area is open and flat. A formation I was told called Fort Rock is about the only natural feature that can be seen from many miles off. Christmas Valley is a really pretty area, to me.

"Le Puits d'Enfer" in France does NOT mean "The Pit of Hell". It means "The Well of Hell". (as in, a "well" that you drop a bucket into to get water).

Correction… the Hawaiian islands are the product of a stable “hot spot” which the pacific plate is moving over, not a juncture off tectonic plates.

This is so cool 😎

This is really great -- thank you. But please note, 'fissure' is logically pronounced like 'fisher', rhyming with 'disher' or 'wisher'.

Videos like this always leave me wishing they'd finish with a troll, like, "Number 1: Your mom's."

The Rio Grande river valley running through New Mexico is a large rift valley as well.

I'm always impressed with your facile pronunciation of other languages: you evidently research and practice!

amazing how you ramble off the foreign names with ease- that i would never attept🤔🙂👍

Just to keep things straight in the media, "Mono" as in Mono Lake, is pronounced "moan-o".

Fizzures?

Wow...🥰🥰🥰

What do I have to show you up and tell you what the biggest crack on earth is ? How about the Atlantic and Pacific ocean ! Once upon a time long long long long long long time ago all land mass was all together then eons later it began to break up thus developing cracks ........... Need I go on ....... Thank you all for your attention ! 😁

"..visitors should avoid standing directly above the well..." LOL

Well written narration!

The “Puits d’Enfer” is located in the Vendèe Region - not Aveyron ! 7:16 This is a crack in the Rift Valley which is about 10 km wide - it is not THE rift valley… 16:15 Just a crack in the rift , not the plate boundary’s…

Am I the only one who saw the title and seriously hoped he'd randomly throw in a pic of some randos plumber's butt? Just for laughs

Those are some big cracks. It looks like Iceland is the clear winner in regards to cracks! I wonder if Greenland has any?

Hey! I think you sold the African Rift short in that the rift continues through the Red Sea into Gulf of Aqaba. From here it enters the Dead Sea valley then the Jordan River up to Anatolia. So, flip #1 to #2 and vice versa and you should be good. 😊

The place name pronunciations are excellent. Well done.

Why didn't you include Ouimet Canyon in northwestern Ontario, Canada?

So…”popular local bathing spot” edges out “African continent splitting apart” for #1. Got it.

I was expecting to see my plumber in this list.

Totally expected someone's mom to make this list

What about the Mariana Trench?

Heard my x was starring in this.

Why is the Fish River canyon not featured? The blow hole makes no sense

What could possibly go wrong when you walk in the bottom of a crack in the ground?

I need a new bum for Christmas, mine has a crack in 😅

It be gonna into separation to forme new Island like Australia ?

Rate of just about everything I recommend consultation with native inhabitants if you take something off the plate you would have to put something back

The big boulder in the Crack 3200 feet above the bottom of the chasm floor is scary.

Wow...all these large cracks, and my first wife isn't even on this list....🤪

Hey! Sto walking in Earth Mother's cracks and stretch me marks! 😳 😁

They might be coming right on back pretty soon.

Ireland’s limestone western coast is replete with erosional features including large cracks, fissures, “show-caves”, bridges, caverns, grottoes and even miles wide fissured pavements. Do a video on THEM.

Hail to the no, no, no to that Norwegian couple standing on that rock between the cliffs. Looks like a potential 127 Hours situation...expect whole bodies are about to get crushed, or trampled...or just straight up flattened by gravity. 👎

I was hoping to see the Continental Divide that is between BC and Alberta, Canada. Radium, BC is a good place to see the crack.

So, there's no undersea crack worth mentioning?

"15 Widest Cracks in the Earth" brought to you by Golden Corral

LOF earthquake we had a 7.1 Alaska

Map: "a symbolic representation of selected characteristics of a place, usually drawn on a flat surface" . . . Maps are kind of nice to have in these kinds of videos. Otherwise, Good Job 🙂

Faults are not formed by erosion.

I think Valley De Molina was used in one of those "Life After Humans" videos

At 3:08 a "face" appeared in the rocks as they talked about the Iceland myth of the young boy. (Center, about half way down the clift.) Does anyone else see it?

The cracks eventually will meet . What is the shifted trajectory of displacement? In order for that to go on, other situations also shifted

"Mono" is pronounced like "moe-noe," not "maw-noe."

Instead of being stuck in Iceland, how about naming the Big Ones. The Anatolian Fault, The Great Glen Fault, the one running through the front range of Colorado (and passes through the Dike to the Horsetooth Reservoir). OH! and the San Andreas Fault. Some in this video aren't cracks at all. A hole on the Coast? Hawaii?

This was all described in the movie 2012 with John Cusack and Amanda Peet !!!

The Shkozyan cave in Slovenia is pronounced that way, where tz is just like in the word pizza.

08:23 Hard to believe this is on our planet, it looks like the surface of some far away alien world.

Every morning Dave wakes up at the crack of Dawn.

Oregonians: what should we name this crack in the ground?? Um, how about “Crack-in-the-Ground”? Done.

Can the government please stop all this irrigating for livestock feed, subsidized crops and exported crops? Also put a distance tax on items and solve a lot of problems.

I blame the Saudis for pumping Arizona dry for their alfalfa for their horses that they're going to ship to Saudi Arabia and they got that water super cheap.

The entire African rift valley is a continent long, hundreds of miles wide at points, crack in the earth. That is by far number 1 in my book.

What? No lake Baikal?

Your AI narrator really choked on those nordic place names LMAO! 😂

Marianas Trench?

You can imagine the Earth without water, as water balances the shape of the Earth, its rotation around itself, and around the sun. Tides are considered a safety valve for the Earth and its rotation. As the water melts, the Earth slows down its rotation. Water has increased due to the melting of the ice caps in the poles and the Himalayas, and thus, the rotational force also increases...

i was wondering if anyone thinks the voice of the narrator is a bit strange is that a real person or a computer ???

Do you even watch these videos before you upload them anymore? Like for real get it together top five

Widest crack in the world? Kim K?

Kjersgsbolten boulder obviously does NOT weight several hundred tons.

Abstract : The energy that dominates the earth is very great, some of it is natural, like the heat of the sun and volcanoes, and some of it is human action, by cutting down trees, without replacing them and cultivating in their place... There are five forces that control or dominate the planet... 1- The first theory (horizontal dynamic movement) and its end... The occurrence of storms, rain, floods and snow, at unexpected times and places, is because of the expiration of this theory, which needs to be balanced... 2- The second theory (vertical dynamic movement) and its end... This movement or force controls or dominates the earthquakes, earth cracks, drying up of rivers and lakes, earth openings, mountain collapses, and the emergence of drinking water springs on the ground... It becomes out of control... These phenomena increased due to the end of this theory... The third theory: it is water that rotates the earth... The fourth theory: the Earth's axis of rotation has tilted 2° degrees... The fifth theory: The Earth has a new orbit... These studies had completed and sent on July 26th 2000 YOUSIF A TOBIYA

I love how all of the people commenting are "such genius minded" people everyone thinks they are so damn smart tell you what if yall so damn smart how bout yell start your own KZfaq channels since you all have such accurate knowledge gafl

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Does that mean the residents of tator hills are known as taters?

So many faces made of stone in Silfrà

The 15 largest cracks in the earths suface dont you mean?.😮

Once again Western Canada 🇨🇦 was not included in this video. There is the Tintina Trench, 3 continental divids on the drive up the Dempster Highway in the Yukon. The Columbia Icefields in British Columbia.

Atlantic ocean?

I knew before you said it. “Tater Hill” had to be in America. 😂

Yo

Hey mr narrator, i hear ther bigger crack on uranus huh ! 🙄

Those fissures can become dangerous quickly from flash floods.

Gods creation never fails to be mind boggling. Humans never fails to be somewhat insane when approach challenging places that is life threatening. But i still wonder why the crack of the Victoria Falls in the Zambezi River hasn't got a place in this channel.

สวัสดี👍🇱🇦

The Arizona crack, how many kilometers is 2miles

Which doesn't mean the PLANET is going to SPLIT in HALF it just means these cracks a going to cave in filling the holes over thousands if not millions of years meanwhile leaving or creating more holes like sinkholes where ever these cracks are

Evidence of Earth's expansion.

They missed one. Karrie Carmichael.
