I watched Melancholia last night. I don't like the title of this upload.

Clickbait is why we hit ignore.

Don’t worry it’s just some dork on photoshop like all the other ‘close ups’ we see

If you a 😺

Fr. I thought some cosmic ray or somethign will hit us HAHAHAHA

I'll be stuck here in Florida but still looking forward to the partial knock on wood it's a clear day. Have a good trip. I am jealous.

Have fun, Im stuck in NW FL. I might as well not even bother.

Right in my backyard here in Southern Ontario, booked the day off and day tripin to get a better view. Just hoping for clear skies 🙏

Be careful. Stay safe.

Nah you’ll make it to 86. Then try to see it a second time

Even with the glasses on?

Well yeah, if you don’t use the proper glasses that’s gonna cause issues lol.

Thanks for the warning.

Bro I have seen full fledged shining sun many times 😅

How can your eyes burn your ass?

Yeah. All our societal structures, habits, pastimes distract us from reality.

Most likely not a plasma. 😊

@@gianni_schicchi a quick google search says otherwise... literally no reason to comment this

@@gianni_schicchi You think it's cheese? 🤪

It was awe inspiring indeed. Did you get to see the heat shadows across the ground when it began? Beautiful and slightly creepy.

I grew up with a dad who was obsessed and he passed that on to me. I've seen.. 4 total eclipses, and several partials. They are magical and serene every single time.

Same!!!!

Are you going to pay for my travels and accommodation?

@@SwordQuake2sell your ebt card

the 2017 eclipse in Oregon was magnificent, we got to see all the phenomena

I was going through an interesting/difficult period of my life at that time, and it’s permanently linked in my memory with that eclipse.

I had the same thing happen 2019 just before all the “covid” madness started. Still trying to make sense of it Cosmic experience

Sameeee, I was working in Wood Village (Portland outskirts near Gresham) at the time

This one's going to be different more powerful than the one in 2017

I know that I'm not the only one for whom your comment here has rocketed back to the 'giving back to humanity' act by the ISS controllers every Christmas. Even though the youngest children in my family are far beyond fairytale truths and being older now, are of a different opinion, we all still rejoice in seeing Santa's sleigh coursing across the night sky on Christmas Eve. For a magical moment, we let go and marvel in the memories. The most powerful experience was about a decade ago when we all skipped down to the lower field at home which was dusted with fresh snow a~sparkling in the moonlight to boot. "Look, look you two, up there, d'you see the shiny thing moving towards us?" "Where? Wh... Oh yes. Wow! Yes. Is it Father Christmas and Rudolph daddy? Is it?" What do you think? Yeeaaahhhh! I can see Father Christmas, I can see Father Christmas. If I only remember one moment in the supposed life flashing before you film just before you pass away experience, I shall be overjoyed if I am blessed with a replay of this one.

​@@JP_TaVeryMuchThis is written in a way that's impossible for someone other than you to fully comprehend.

​@@JP_TaVeryMuchI fully understand and get it.....what wonderful magic to give to my little one someday, thanks for your story.

@@jasonrackawack9369 I did go on a bit but that's just because I was trying to get across the awe and seasonal wonder of the moonlight glinting on the snow 'reflected' in the sunlight sparkling off the ISS's wings / solar panels. I'm so pleased that it reached you and I am smiling at the thought of you doing the little research needed which will result in boundless joy that lives with you and your little 'uns!

@@AtechG35 I feel sorry that my story hasn't ignited even the weakest flicker of a smile, it seems. I have re-read it a couple of times and I'm the one who's failing now. If ever there were the genuine occasion to use the word awesome, this was it. If you have little people in your family, force yourself to look up on the internet which way to look up in the Christmas Eve night sky to spot Father Christmas speeding towards you from which horizon. Invite them outside and let their little rosey cheeks turn to you in awe with _that_ question on their beaming lips. Do you and the other unfortunately benighted "likers" have sufficiently melted hearts yet? I do so hope that you have.

I live in Atlanta.. I remember that day.

I was on a road trip in Texas and we pulled over and could only see it partially through a motorcycle helmet lol. I live in Georgia now and it’s hitting Texas in totality 😅

make sure the weather is clear!

@@mrbyzantine0528with an early Spring date, that's pretty much my only worry.

Cleveland here. Right in the middle of the path. Will be watching the weather closely and hitting a road trip if needed.

Here in Florida we are only going to get around 57% coverage but still it should be quite the sight. Fingers crossed it's a clear day.

It was amazing!!

I'm just about to look up on how animals react to eclipses. this gives some insight. thanks!

@@gititgiitit5450 you will not be disappointed it was 25 years ago I still have the gosse pu p when I think of it its was just unic

@@gititgiitit5450 are you in US ? I would give so much to see it again with my better half

@@johnminet9067 where I live sucks. Not only in general but for every astrological event it rains or is cloudy. For this event there's a 86 percent chance of rain. So our soroundings will only look more depressing than normal.

@gititgiitit5450 Jo what a shame we'll let hope that for once that day it will be better

That's terrible! What's the story? Where did you go wrong?

Mine too

Aye I was in Germany I remember that one too!

Error Prone Alex

I was there too next to the sea

I went to Cornwall. Didn't see it due to cloud cover. Yet the day before and the day after the eclipse was perfect blue sky. Typical British weather!

@@equitime77 I was in north London

I want to see it on a pub roof.

@@M-e-t-a-l-l-i-c-a_fan Did you go Fistral by chance?

Why not

@@MikhaelYacobMalechNisan5742 because it's going to burn your eyeballs out of does eclipse is going to be more stronger than they ever there is more to it than you think I live in an RV and I'm not going to be even be on the road or even outside I'm staying in all day that day I have silver covers all over my windows it's going to be a very bright flash

It's so annoying to hear people remind each other of the obvious. Glancing at the sun won't blind you. Much more will. We've all known that since childhood. If we end up with a bunch of Stevy Wonders afterwards, it's their own darned fault. Remind your children, not grown adults.

@@pksteichen2315 then why don't you go look at the sun without the glasses if it's so annoying to you to hear that adult should not look at it stupid

@@pksteichen2315 I don't think he means not looking to protect your eyes from the sun. He's saying it's a curse to look at it In some way shape or form.

Videos like this really trigger the flerfs. You can almost hear the tears falling.

Have a whole vacation centered around it....sorry Arkansas, but other than maybe storm chasing, I have no desire to visit you other than April 8th

@@armynurse1510 My thoughts exactly regarding Ohio 😂

I'm going

@@phaedrus000me for Missouri! LOL I’m in central FL, I know we got a total scheduled in about 2045 🥶💀

Planning to go to Farmington, Missouri to see the spectacle. Let’s just hope it’s not cloudy 😂

So cool. I've seen something like that and I expect we'll see a bunch on social media after the 8th

hah, stellar

When he said those eruptions from the suns surface extend out hundreds of thousands of miles yet to us it looks like inches. Mind boggling.

same here. i’m so excited for it!

Same !

Same

Same, in Arkansas.😊

The only good thing about living in Texas.

I'm in Dallas and already you can feel the excitement!

Einstein had to chase eclipses all over the world trying to prove his theory. I wish I had the ability to do that but I do hope to be around to see the next one here in the 2040's. I got to see a total when I was a kid. Too young for it to be very transformative but it getting dark in the middle of a sunny day is quite memorable.

Accidental Korn reference spotted

Agreed. So many people traveling here to see the eclipse……do they know how cloudy it usually is here? I am looking forward to it but knowing it may not be a clear view.

They happen every 6 months, but I think this one is highly anticipated bc of its passing through the states in totality and for a longer time than usual, last time it happened in 2017 i believe

@@octoberstorm3333 no one cares when they pass through NZ in totality ;-;

How is it misleading? It will effect millions of us.

Happy early and enjoy

Was there too!
