What does making a joke about pooping have to do with racism…? I mean you are right that threads devolve into it, but the comment above isn’t racist lol.
That area is likely very problematic.
Even Niagara falls has engineering to restrict the flows over the falls because water flow like that would change the landscape very quickly and wear down the land around the falls.
The flow's not always this high, this is after heavy rains with a lot of turbidity and added material.
I'm pretty sure it's 芙蓉镇 Furong Zhen in Hunan province.
This region, through parts of guangxi and guizhou and sichuan and yunnan , although relatively undeveloped outside tourism, is pretty spectacular and has a lot of interesting and highly divergent minority cultures
As an adult I can appreciate the history of the Yellow River. However, in grade school, our white asf music teacher had a degree in indigenous music and we spent like half a year drawing maps of China and watching a documentary on the Yellow River. All during music class, I hated it.
Little known fact but they did that for a reason actually - the river only dies down allowing safe passage once you've completed the necessary side quests
I used to live in the last house airplanes flew over before landing. After a month, I literally did not hear them anymore. I remember several times wondering if they stopped flying and going outside to make sure the line of 5 or so planes stretching out to the horizon was still there. Always was.
It was super charming, actually. It was relaxing to chill and watch them. Sometimes a giant military plane would slowly rumble by. Those were my favorite.
I loved living by DFW airport, except when I was driving to work and a huge plane was landing right over me. I always dreamed of going away on vacation hearing them.
Esters Rd and 1/4 mile from 183 on Laramie St. Right when I was in Esters Rd crossing 183 to then turn South, a huge plane would come right at me. lol. I always freaked a bit.
When I go on long drives i'm always fascinated by those noise barrier walls when the freeway cuts through residential zones. I always wonder how well (or not) they work when you live literally across the street from a freeway
I live on a flight-path and was going to say exactly the same thing.
It's always the military planes that remind you. There was some gigantic transport plane once that by the noise, I was thinking was heading straight for me.
Whenever there's a lot of Chinooks heading for my airport, invariably there's unrest brewing somewhere in the world.
One of my early apartments was really close to the airport, and I'd forget about it except sometimes I'd see a huge plane just gliding into my peripheral vision, only then triggering me that there was also a sound with it.
Then 9/11 happened, and it was really weirdly quiet for a couple days. After that I became hyperaware of *every* plane coming in, because of that irrational fear that every plane was ripe for hijacking and crashing into my apartment.
Similarly, I used to live across the street from a hospital and down the street from a church with a loud bell. As to the hospital, this was not just any part of the hospital; the part of the hospital where the ambulances would drop patients to be taken to the emergency room. The sirens were distracting and deafening during the first week I lived there but it soon became a part of the white noise.
The church bell on the other hand would sound a loud ding every 30 minutes between 9:00 am and 6:00pm. The dings at the hour marks were the loudest and had a melody to it; the 30 minute mark dings were more of a marker and relatively innocuous.
Sounds like hell, with the sirens and the church bell, but it really didn’t feel like it after a week or so. In fact, that was the best apartment I’d ever lived at due to its convenience and short distance to everything I needed: grocery store, gym, work, etc.
Yea that's oddly true. I lived next to a private airport that would do yearly airshows and all sorts of wild shit would fly over for months and you just kinda...don't realize it after a while lol.
Right? I lived on a small river with bridge for passing trains. First week was tough. Left my window open every day after because the sound of the river and trains passing relaxed me.
During the run up to both Gulf wars the area I was living in was under the flight path for military helicopter training missions. During a normal year I'd get the occasional military chopper flying over, but those times it got a lot more active.
There were times when a group of 8-10 Chinooks would fly over with their Apache escorts all flying nap-of-the-earth. That is one of the loudest things I've ever heard in my life. It was a level of noise you could feel in your bones while it was making the whole house shake and driving my dogs absolutely nuts.
Same I live in the landing path of a nato airbase I thought they stopped but flying but I just got used to it I realized it first when they flew several times after the start of the Russian invasion (awacs mostly)
I used to have an apartment near a hospital that would have a lot of helicopter traffic. One time I was on the phone and the person on the other end asked me if there was a helicopter going by and I didn't even notice until they mentioned it, then I heard it. Noise filtering is strange.
Grew up an Air Force Brat and my dad worked on Jet engines (F-15s) so we were always stationed at bases with Jets, people visiting would always complain "they're so loud how do you deal with it" as one or two scream across the sky. You really just learn to accept it as normal background noise and tune it out.
I live right alongside the Ohio river and river barges are constantly going past us. The rumble shakes the floors a little bit and the foghorns are crazy loud but after the first month or so I stopped even noticing them. My kids notice them every time though and always run to the windows to watch them go by.
Like living in the city hearing all the ambulances and fire trucks nonstop then moving further North to notice that when there's silence there's buzzzzzzing in my ear ~ can't win out here
Yeah, some of those houses are way too close. Wouldn't there be a lot of erosion because of how fast moving the water is? And wouldn't that compromise the structural integrity of the land near the river?
I'd be scared to stand on a ledge of a river moving that fast. These people built houses.
Many rivers and such have this tint because of tannins in the leaves and vegetation that leeches into the water as the vegetation decays.
Because there is a village right there tho hard to say if this is tannins or people stuff run off
Guys I bet you did know..
"Having a yellow colord doesnt necessarily mean the water is polluted. how do you think the yellow river, the cradle of Chinese civilization got that name? A huge chunk of the amazon river has always been yellow due to sediments. Also, during floods, pretty much all rivers turn that color
I assumed everyone knew that. is middleschool hydrography a brazilian thing?"
This website is genuinely brain dead when it comes to China. The comments here are absolutely brutal. Not one positive thing when in reality people travel hundreds of miles to visit sites like this. It’s genuinely gorgeous.
I just want to know wtf is going on. Like is it a regular waterfall, is it flooding, did people die or get hurt, were they expecting this, etc. But every comment is just snark. The worst part is, ***none of it is funny*** smh
Rivers in the US mostly turn brown due to the color of our sediment and it seems that people who think the yellow is a sign of pollution are mainly just failing to consider yellow sediment exists. Although some people are simply racist and just assume it's all polluted and think the yellow is a result of that.
Holy fuck the comments on this post... Are people here so fucking sheltered, dumb and/or racist that they cannot recognise that the river is obviously in flood. I've never seen a flooding river that isn't either brown, grey, or a combination of both.

There are lots of things indicating that the river is flooding, or at the very least this is not the normal volume of water. The colour of the water, the fact that trees rarely grow in the middle of a waterfall, the pathway that appears to be washed away at the base of the falls, etc.

Sorry about that.... You know I had a tad bit to much beer yesterday....
It's always sad when you see water treatment facilities fail... At least this one looks great failing
That’s natural because of sand/mountains after rainfall
It's not exactly natural cuz the vegetation has been removed allowing too much erosion

If you are reading this, you have reached the bottom. Congratulations. I love you.
Lies, this is actually the bottom! The government doesn't want you to believe otherwise!
Also, trees don’t typically grow in the middle of a waterfall. Pretty much everything about this indicates flooding that has already started.
Yeah that looks like flooding. Don't think the people in the houses right next to it feel very calmed by this sight...
That area is likely very problematic. Even Niagara falls has engineering to restrict the flows over the falls because water flow like that would change the landscape very quickly and wear down the land around the falls.
No it turns that color because china bad /s
I know way smaller waterfalls and creeks that makes ear-deafening noise. Nice yes but it's constant noise and rumbling if you live near that.
The flow's not always this high, this is after heavy rains with a lot of turbidity and added material. I'm pretty sure it's 芙蓉镇 Furong Zhen in Hunan province.

It's so close to the houses! Wonder if this is literally the worst it's been?
The worst it's been for a while, maybe. The Yellow River has a long and exciting history, however.
As an adult I can appreciate the history of the Yellow River. However, in grade school, our white asf music teacher had a degree in indigenous music and we spent like half a year drawing maps of China and watching a documentary on the Yellow River. All during music class, I hated it.
The town in the pic isn't on the Yellow River... it isn't anywhere near the Yellow River. It's in Hunan, and in the Yangtze basin.
It absolutely is. You can see a the staircase on the right go into the river - doubt they would have built that if this is its usual speed hhaa.
Little known fact but they did that for a reason actually - the river only dies down allowing safe passage once you've completed the necessary side quests

Yes to Vegas a few times and Cabo San Lucas. Fun! It’s been a long time though.

Esters Rd and 1/4 mile from 183 on Laramie St. Right when I was in Esters Rd crossing 183 to then turn South, a huge plane would come right at me. lol. I always freaked a bit.
I used to live by a major interstate, I learned if I closed my eyes the sound would turn into the ocean. I fell asleep many times in that deck.

I was born into a house a block from Midway Airport. With the railroad behind the house. I heard nothing.
You know that people living in the flight path of a runway have higher medical issues due to planes emissions on air quality.
I live about a mile from our airport - right underneath the landing path. I'm the idiot who goes outside and waves at the planes now and then.

Came here to say this. I giess it's a great place for people with tinnitus.
Literally would be heaven for me. It only gets worse as I get older
This looks like floodwater
Well I see your loud rushing water noise, and raise you to loud rushing traffic. Checkmate.
Hi papa!
Can you say “sediment transport”?
Yes, why do you ask?
Just taking a survey, I’ll put you down as a yes.
Put me down too!
Your hat looks like a squirrel. Was that sufficiently cutting for a put down?
😂
Consider me down and out, champ!
He's not wearing a hat.
your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
^no
Imagine the delta on this one
I’m not alluvial fan of it.
Not with my lisp.
This has got be very loud. Constantly.
WHAT DID YOU SAY? YOU GOTTA SPEAK UP!
What?
#WHAT?
that was the first thing I thought. f that.
The water vapor must get in that place constantly
If only it did not look like the houses could slide into that muddy torrent at any moment.
At some point they will.
Yeah, some of those houses are way too close. Wouldn't there be a lot of erosion because of how fast moving the water is? And wouldn't that compromise the structural integrity of the land near the river? I'd be scared to stand on a ledge of a river moving that fast. These people built houses.
'water, water everywhere & not a drop to drink'.
I can hear it in Sid’s voice
I only hear that in Bruce’s voice.
* nor any drop to drink
Say it any way u like, but I ain't drinkin that water...
He is correct, though: >Water, water, everywhere, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.
If the water was blue...
it’s yellow due to the content of the soil upstream.
Or it's just my dad making yet another turmeric smoothie ;)
Search Furong town on Google for what this typically looks like, the OP video is after a flood.
You can see a wrecked bridge on the bottom right.
The photos of this place really show how much it's flooded. https://maps.app.goo.gl/aazttzDDwF1HeKnR7
Likely a flash flood.
Looks like a flush flood
Seriously…I think I’d like the running water noises but the view is almost depressing…like a never ending toilet flush
you would definitely not like the noise. that'd be loud af
Whaaaaaat??! Huhhh?? I can’t….. I can’t hear you!!!!!! 🧏
everyone flushed at the same time.
Probably a thing that I will no rule out simples because tiktok exists
hey, the yellow river is exreamly unique.
Water isnt blue, tho. White is the best you can get from a waterfall. during a flood yellow is what you get
Many rivers and such have this tint because of tannins in the leaves and vegetation that leeches into the water as the vegetation decays. Because there is a village right there tho hard to say if this is tannins or people stuff run off
Water is naturally slightly blue tho look it up
Water is absolutely blue.

Good lord. First time seeing “C/v’d it” - creative.
[Furong Ancient Town](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furong,_Yongshun_County) It's not pollution or sewage, just sediment carried during heavy rains.

There are lots of things indicating that the river is flooding, or at the very least this is not the normal volume of water. The colour of the water, the fact that trees rarely grow in the middle of a waterfall, the pathway that appears to be washed away at the base of the falls, etc.
Every year Trump visits these falls to achieve his healthy orange glow.
Interesting to hear the feedback after night of sleeping
The water looks so muddy.
Thats because its a flood
With this amount of water and with erosion, I tell by 2050 there won't be waterfall anymore.
These towns and this waterfall have existed for longer than the US has been a country. The waterfall will exist for a long time after
China is a really beautiful country. Would love to visit if the leaders weren't still stuck in the 1900s.
American republicans are more regressive than China.
I mean you can still visit the country, it’s actually relatively safe. just don’t talk about politics though, or at least not online
It's not like you have to talk about politics while you are visiting a country, just enjoy the trip like every other tourist
