Thank all of you for watching! I really enjoyed making this video, and it seems a lot of you really like Professor Davis, which makes me really happy! She and I have talked and we are planning to record a video of her reacting to Tears of the Kingdom! Professor Davis is also currently taking a sabbatical for a couple semesters so write a book about the geology and culture of the national parks. If you are interested, she has a newsletter where you can sign up to stay updated as she travels to the national parks, as well as a Patreon to directly support her financially on her travels.

First off, this woman is a hero for taking this guy seriously when he asks her to look at a game's geology. Then she completely pinpoints the hot springs on Death Mtn. in a few seconds from miles away, making it even funnier when he can't find it on the map. She's obviously as passionate as she is knowledgeable, and I imagine many of her students have gone on to careers or at least further study after taking her class.

Couple of things to add 1. The dueling peaks were split by farosh, so they do have a mystic origin (the ash swamp in front of fort hateno was an extension of Lake Siela before this). 2. The rock salt is from a great sea from eons past (presumably Wind Waker's sea that covered the whole world) so that is why it's everywhere. 3. Id like to see her react to the fault lines of Botw and the position of the desert, forest, and great plateau.

Just a cool addition that you may not have realized you touched on.

I'm no geologist in the slightest, but I've always been interested in how the land in botw appears to have its own geological history. Like death mountain having a large ring around the volcano like it had an older active hole that grew and dwindled out into a surrounding lava pool, or the surrounding landscape such as the akkala region being composed of the same volcanic rock as the mountain, or the "cheese rocks" appearing around calamity infested areas or past points of evil (such as the supposed breach of evil from skyward sword). If you plan on doing another one of these videos, I feel like the wasteland/gerudo region would be fun to explore due to the canyons/plateaus and quarries, as well as the dug out areas possibly showing geological history.

It's been a while since I took a science class, but I was glad I remembered a strata volcano versus a composite volcano. I was excited when she mentioned Mt. St. Helens, she is one of our favorite volcanos and has interesting mythology. My sister was quite the fanatic about that volcano and told me that she'd read a native American myth about a forest that eats people at St. Helens (prior to the 1980 eruption) and the stories were true. I believe that my sister said (it has been over ten years since she told me it) that an old forest had been buried under ash fall. The soil hardened and new trees grew over top of the old forest. The buried wood rotted away in time leaving the tree wells in the earth. At times (when there had been wet weather or strong vibrations) people walked over the ground and it would "swallow people up". Gotta love how mythology and science can go hand in hand. Edited comment to update the carnivorous forest information after speaking with my sister.

This is such a fantastic idea, I've been waiting ages for someone who actually knows geology to look at this game!!

If your professor would ever consider doing a part 2 of this and you want ideas, let me know, because I have TONS of questions and hypotheses about Hyrule's geology! I would also really love to see Professor Davis's thoughts on Death Mountain as portrayed in Twilight Princess, because uh... that is one very strange volcano lol. (If you haven't played it or haven't looked closely at the volcano when you did, it looks like a massive lava cabbage is perched at an angle on the top of the cone. My theory is that it's supposed to be a lava dome, but it's REAL weird looking.)

Our English teacher in year 9 and 10 would swear and we loved it because we could identify with this teacher. I still remember most things he taught me. And i was absolutely terrible at the subject. Yet I was consistently awarded top percentage in math and science (general science, physic, biology, chemistry) for my year level but I remember having math and science teachers who were so bad that even I wasn't succeeding at my usual level. They were mean-spirited, bland, unmotivated. They felt as if we owe them for taking time out of their day to come and teach us when the reality is the teenagers probably wanted to be there less than the adults. The way you capture an audience of teenagers isn't by being petulant towards them. Teenagers can out petty most people on the earth, even Karen's 😂 Amazing teacher, right there.

I really appreciate this my guy! Keep up the good work as everything "Mythical" in games were grounded and inspired by something in reality. You should make this a series! I subbed to keep up!

A note about the Rock Salt and it's placement. It actually does make sense when you consider the Zelda Timeline and Hyrule having been flooded at some point by the Great Sea, leaving only a few mountain tips above water. In that context, finding salt literally everywhere isn't that crazy.

13:10 the description of rock salt in botw says "crystallized salt from the ancient sea commonly used to season meals", so the team clearly thought about its relevance! it's most likely a link to the great sea in wind waker, unless nintendo decides to confirm the botw timeline

What a great professor. I have little interest in geology but seeing her passion for this and genuine interest in the game made this interesting. We're fortunate to have teachers like her. As for the game, well these were only two locations in the world… I think comparing it to real life, the funniest thing is that the entire map squeezes all these biomes and landmasses into a 8km by 10km world. The borders between the land types are also kind of weird. I'd be curious to see her takes on other places like the Gerudo Highlands, Faron jungle, or Tanagar Canyon, as well as Hyrule in general. Some of it, like that canyon or the hole in Hebra Peak, is implied to have been caused by supernatural events though like Dinraal's daily path and Vah Medoh's laser.

One thing to keep in mind about the rock salt, is that it has been mentioned somewhere in botw that "the land was once covered by a great sea" (potentially in reference to the Legend of Zelda game Wind Waker) and I think it might even say in-game that this is why you'll find rock salt in so many different places. I could be misremembering that last part, though.

I think that the in-game lore suggests that the Dueling Peaks formation was created by one of the supernatural beings that exist in Hyrule. A dragon, I think. The legend is that the dragon carved a new path for mortals, and fans believe it to be the dragon Farosh who did this But I imagine that it was actually inspired by the real-life mountain range you guys looked at. By the way, you can also destroy rocks with the Drill Shaft. It's much easier and the drill shaft takes less damage than other weapons when used for this purpose.

The bit about the salt might actually make sense because Hyrule was flooded with an ocean before.

The rock salt is because Breath Of The Wild/Tears Of The Kingdom take place thousands of years after The Wind Waker, where the entire kingdom of Hyrule (and possibly the entire world) were flooded and sank below the sea, aside from a few islands/peaks. The in-game description of the rock salt directly confirms this, saying the rock salt "Crystallized salt from the ancient sea commonly used to season meals. Cannot be eaten in this form."" The "founding of Hyrule" mentioned in BOTW/TOTK is actually a RE-founding of Hyrule after the original Hyrule was wiped out by the flood.

If I remember correctly, In breath of the wild you can talk to some lady on the way to the stable in the rain forest, she says that there’s a story that a dragon split the mountain in half, so there actually is a mythology behind why the mountain is split
