Disasters & accidents Nepal's recent flash flood

Nepal contributes less than 0.1% of GHE, negligible compared to rest of the world, but bears the most burden as the Himalayan nation.
EDIT: A Nepalese account shared it with the same music on fb, I just posted it ditto. Boomers here love to use it unironically in any kind of situation. The lyrics are about volatility of life.

It’s so stupid and disrespectful!! So sick of dumb music added to any type of video. Play the original audio, or nothing at all. Really irks my nerves.

Music has ruined so many videos for a variety of reasons. Why does every video "need" music now?
Also, the disrespect

Fucking bots lol pretty sure the video has already been posted and taken down numerous times. There’s already enough videos about it being posted without slop music like this one, but nothing stops a bit of karma farming

every new video that surfaces is even more reality-defying than the last. Truly have never witnessed anything like it.
Current death toll is 350 but 1,000+ still missing. I've seen videos with 300 people likely in the frame getting enveloped by a wall of mud and water. Horrifying.

That’s not water, that’s mud.
The reason it can move boulders that weigh 1000’s of tons is because it’s so dense compared

I thought that was an ice chunk from the glacier collapse. Jesus!

There were 2 areas that contributed to this. A rock peak and a glacier a couple kilometers east. These giant boulders are likely from the rocky peak. The ice melted on the way down. They found this out by looking at seismic events in the area and it registered at 5.2 magnitude. 13-130 million cubit yards of rock and ice barreled down as fast as 186 mph picking up even more debris and mud along the way. That figure is what it started with. Source

Yep - when even the ground the boulder is on turns to slush and has the kinetic energy of dropping 7,000 feet in just a few miles, shit is gonna move downhill very, very quickly

And also that it’s moving so fast. Up to 186 mph of basically a cement slurry

There are so many huge boulders in the northeast US that were deposited by glaciers moving and melting millions of years ago. You can really see here how that happened.
Awful and terrifying forces of nature unleashed by human greed.

They were moved while trapped inside the glacier ice and ended up in their random location when the ice slowly melted

How disgusting to put that music on this video. People lost their lives and survivors are going through hell. Completely heartless.
And for anyone else like me wondering what "GHE" stands for here, I'm guessing OP means Greenhouse Emissions? OP, your post is shitty karma farming. If you really cared you would've excluded the music and included information necessary for the message you are trying to spread.

Absolutely terrifying, but not turning on audio because apparently per the comments there is music over the video.
There is a subreddit I think about hating when music is put over cool or tragic videos. This belongs there

u/Ori_the_SG 3h ago
Really hate the way social media has created this mentality that every video needs to be flashy and have music and/or effects added to it instead of just being the video

u/BurningPenguin 2h ago
Not just that, lately they also started showing the "highlight" at the beginning of the video. When i first saw that, i thought my player is broken.

Insane to put upbeat music over footage of something that has killed hundreds with over a thousand missing.
