Comments by "Hugh Jorgan" (@HughJorgan1) on "Part-Frozen Niagara Falls Wows Visitors" video.
Always a great sight. It happens every year to some extent. And it completely stopped flowing in 1848 due to a massive ice jam upstream from the Falls. The whole freeze spectacle has been occurring for over 5,000 years in the current formation of the Falls. And prior to that, the area saw some interesting geological events as the ice-sheet covering this part of North America started receding around 14,000 years ago. Why do I provide so much superfluous information? Because comment sections for any natural weather event inevitably become infected with climate change alarmists, those who attribute everything to a 2,000 year-old God story, or those who think everything is a sign of the apocalypse. smh

@juanjosetalerogarcia902 …Nope, it’s about 4.5 billion years old. This has been proven using multiple scientific methods including the dating of rocks using the radioactive decay of elements such as rubidium and strontium.
