Well, it's, I mean, you can see some pieces of it left there. But yes, it's basically all downstream. Well, That transect through the Clark Fork where that red dash line is, that was this. Now, this shows the water level up to 4,200 feet above sea level. And the floor of the valley at that point is 2,100 feet above sea level. So that means the water depth right there was 2,100 feet.
So I've taken a, at scale, the cross section of downtown Atlanta and put this in here. So you can, if you go to the next slide, Ryan, there you can see. That is the skyline of Atlanta to scale. The tallest building in Atlanta is the Bank of America building, which is kind of in the middle. And it's just right around 11, just a little less than 1,100 feet in height.

So it would take two of those stacked on top of each other to equal the depth of that flood. That's crazy. Now the next one, you don't see the full width of it, but that would show the depth over Atlanta.

Now, I think one of the takeaways here, again, is that once you begin to realize the scale of these hydraulic events that are associated with the end of the last ice age, I mean, what would you see of Atlanta in the aftermath of a flow like this? Nothing, nothing, nothing at all. It'd be completely pulverized. The wreckage of those buildings would be indistinguishable from a natural outcrop.

You'd be down to the bedrock underneath.

Yeah. Let's keep going here. All right, so this is Milk River Current Ripple Field, southern Saskatchewan, product of the Livingstone Lake event. White bar is one mile long. So this is water flowing that became the headwaters of the Missouri River. So, I mean, we're just, you know, the stuff we've seen here today is really only a sample of the totality of evidence.

What I'm doing now is I'm collecting evidence from Europe and Asia where you see the same kinds of stuff. And again, confirming this idea of planetary scale movement of water and We need to know about this. We need to know that this is part of recent history and this, you know, certainly as interesting as like the dinosaur extinction event was 66 million. Yeah.

It doesn't really have the relevance to our own story on the planet as these events do. Right. Because our ancestors were here during all of this. Um, was that the end or was there more?
