#SolarEclipse #Eclipse #Travel
why do people call it once in a lifetime when we saw it in 2017??
Because in 2017 it wasn’t a total eclipse
cause 2024 solar eclipse will be the last one for another 20 years.
@@altarique123 yeah, but this one is in America mainly.
@@altarique1231979 was the only one in the 20th century in the USA.
Stupidity.
A bunch of propaganda, solar eclipse will never happen not in this lifetime
That irish accent made me go “that eclipse sounds bollocks innit? “
I think that was a Scottish accent mate.
Tis make it sound British mate
What time can I see it in Buffalo New York ?
Around 3:25 PM
@@EllieOscar thanks .. I shall be driving and delivering medication during that time . I guess I shall watch it from my car 🚘
They’re calling for rain in Buffalo.
Wait a min the path of totality changed on that map hahaha , supposed to be cloudy ey
Just look away from the sun and gaza
Yes dont pay attention America. Go look at the eclipse and eat your hot dogs
@@IDFpartyboi972 Have a few brews and forget the children. the thousands of children
Just look away from the sun and the gaza strip
Turn your head from the sun and the mass durder
@@WhataMensch Its not like its our money here in ISRAEL. We get to use American toys to Slaoghter
Everybody Flocking to an eclipse instead of Getting their life right with TMH GOD of the universe smh if ppl read the Bible then they would know what this really is about 4.8 earthquake and 4/8 Solar Eclipse 🤔
Must be nice to have extra money to travel just to see an ECLIPSE!
Eclipse debt.
There’s always someone better off than you and someone worse off than you. Just be happy.
People are just that stupid
@@CT-vm4gf I needed that, thank you!
Many people rack up credit cards and go in debt.
What they fail to mention is that its only fully visible if its clear sky’s. If its cloudy you wont see anything
Eclipse insurance?
Everyone knows this, there’s clear spots not far from the cloudy spots. Im in the path of totality myself🙂
Bring your flashlight 😘
Saw totality at home in 1979.
Very cool, but dumb day to get married.
It was so dope here in Ohio!!

What you want is a tornado and the Eclipse in one shot
Then it might be the end of your life time!
Now you’re getting idea how florida feels,😂
I wish more people understood what eclipses are spiritually. As an astrologer, you are not supposed to be under or watch the eclipses. They were historically considered omens that brought upon the death of the king. I.e. watch this week. Somebody is going to die that is a king of industry.
I don’t understand what the fuss is all about..it’s just the moon blocking the sun for a few mins..
People really have nothing better to do..🤦🏽
“The sun shall become black as sackcloth, and the moon to blood before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day.”
Just because you don’t understand things doesn’t mean they shouldn’t happen or exist. Worry about yourself.
I guess you haven’t got a glimpse of the US Navy map for 2030

Is it blank?
It’s just an eclipse….it’s not changing lives or anything….theses are the same morons that post pictures of sunsets like nobody has ever seen one before….I have way more important things to give my attention to
I tend to move away from crowds
Smart…
Right especially nowadays.
come stay with me I live alone
Does anybody work?
Nobody cares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stupid is as stupid does
All those clouds, nobody bothered to check, will be eclipsing the eclipse. Have fun anyway, use your phone!
You don’t have nothing to do don’t look on it demand you butt becakiful Jamaica Jamaica
I Swear Y’all Love Me. ❤️
It not a good thing to look at it this one is not good to look at Jamaica Jamaica
A assistência para o Elipse Solar é uma oportunidade única para muitos que veram.
Doesn’t anybody have a job or go to school anymore?
I’m off tomorrow 😂but I can see what you mean.
I have school, But I took the day off 😂 I ain’t missing this once in a lifetime experience
@@FastGuy1
It’s not once in a lifetime. I seen about 4 of them.
Lol right
YES!! Good call let me go back to my desk and look at another screen

An eclipse to study animals? Put them in a dark room with a night vision camera and close the F@#kin door!
I assume your comment was satire, but also animals have a deep connection to nature that us humans fall leagues short of. It will make a difference for them to be out in nature when the darkness falls at an unusual time, so there is the pontential for decent research.
You can do it every night. No need to wait for years! 🤣🤣
It will not be completely dark! And there will not be chaos! Stop with this.
Who said there will be chaos?
Theyre calling states of emergency prior to the eclipse @@enadegheeghaghe6369
How romantic to get married during tomorrow’s eclipse. I guess I’ll have to wait to get married during the next eclipse when I’m 96yo. No biggie. No rush
Who said you were living that long
Lame.. eclipse wedding.
Kids will mock parents.
I am calling in sick to work this is the biggest thing ever and it could be the end of the world. i am going to go on a vodka drunk and watch this once in a lifetime eclipse and hope I live to see another day.
It’s just an eclipse dude….it’s not gonna change your life or anything…..
@@JJUnohu the last one in 2011 gave trump super powers.
Chill, go read the Bible.
OK. If you want to get drunk, then do it. No excuse needed.
TOTALLY appreciate your sarcasm! The media hype is so annoying!
Spectacular better be looking for The coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Get some where and turn from your wicked ways and Humble yourselves and Pray.🙌🏾🙏🏻❤️
No thanks.
Eclipses happen all the time around the world….this is nothing special…..just visible in America this time
I filled up with gas on Friday. I work right under where the total eclipse will happen. I hope it rains.🤣
🌑😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
STUPID
Where all gonna die..aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
I love the lady who called it a once-in-a-lifetime event for her family. Like she expects most of them to be dead before the next one in 20 years.
They might not all be able to travel for a similar event in 20 years. So yes it could be a once in a lifetime event for them
Wow! Getting married during an eclipse! So sweet and romantic!
I’m not economically viable
Clowns!
this reminds me of “Feivel goes west”
We are so insane.
I’m testing plants with my PlantWave to see if they sing differently in the darkness. Only like 10k of us have one so im sure im not the only one in the path of totality doing this 🌴 🎵 🌞 🌚
sick sick kids
(Allah)-KNOWS Everything on this Eclipse, Muslim is Soo Happy of this Eclipse ‘ why? Becouse’ the Eclipse is the Day when PROPHET Ibrahim Alahissalam Died, For the Muslim believes’ Eclipse-is Miracle Of True-GOD-(Allah),
Repent and give your life to Jesus the risen Messiah. Jesus is Alive. Mohammed and all the prophets are DEAD! Wake up!!!!
Is it the end of the world ?
Unfortunately no
When an eclipse is accepted as a form of payment to pay bills 😳 then I’ll gaf
So lame
Hopefully this will be a sign to save democracy, thanks people, stay real
“Saving democracy” is a scam!
The Rapture is coming
It is. Honestly very soon.
Wish people got this excited about God, like they would the things He created. People make idols of things that don’t fulfill the way God does. Astronomy is cool, but people over hype things way too much. And I don’t do traffic and big crowds. Especially nowadays with big crowds.
What time this happens in California
The totality of sensational news.🐞
It’s got to be a sign of the apocalypse that people are this stupid.

The fear agenda doing the rounds 😊😅😅😅
Get ready to turn into zombies!!!
1:50 no we’ll have another here in Ohio in 20 years. Also idk where she was back in the 80s or 90s(can’t remember which one) when we had one before. I was in elementary school.
I seriously don’t get why people are making such a huge deal about this.
Have you ever heard of fun?
@@thefox6568 Yes. Have you?
Weirdoes playing this up strikes me as disconcerting.
Why is nothing being said for the devil comet same day?
개기월식 皆旣月蝕 우와..차 막히는거 봐봐…
wow traffic…for eclipse
Does anybody work??
Many people are self employed or they work in places where they are allowed to take time off. No need to be bitter about it
What is the big deal about the solar eclipse? Every Illinois winter, the sun disappears for weeks on end.
Idiots?😂😂😂
Good bye I’m staying home it’s my birthday tomorrow 🎉😂!
Living in the path of totality is really cool! Less expense to see this once in a lifetime event. I believe it is the path of totality that makes this a once in a lifetime event. Happy Solar Eclipse Day everybody! Make this a day we can set aside the worries of life and enjoy an event that is bigger than all of us.
sheeps
OMG I am sooooooooooooo ready for this over-hype to be OVER!
Usa has no problems if they can run around to watch eclipse
Never miss a good bukkake party 😊
Will it put some money in my pocket or take money out of my pocket?
Haha if you have that much money to spend ,ok ,have fun then
2017’s eclipse wasnt even this hyped i watched it through Welding mask then went back to work
Honestly I thyt it stopped…Food 4 thought….
The animals will be getting ready to sleep. I quite remember 2006 eclipse i witnessed. It was spectacular. Enjoy the event all these in the path.
Your map at the start of this video is wrong! Path of totality is higher to the north
There was one visible in here the Uk in 1999. And I remember one when I was in school as well so I’ve seen two. People really do get carried away.
What kind of people are they?? Don’t they have any fear that what is happening after this event???
😂😅😂😅😂
Getting married during an eclipse… bad luck ahead…
Sun and moon aren’t coming from different galaxy chill. They’re behaving like they’ve never witnessed solar and lunar eclipse huh. What so special about it?
Captain Kirk needs to get a
hair cut, and get a real job!
Awesome
