地球的力量 第3集 冰川(18):洪水肆虐
一開始你會看到揚塵和大風
and you'd feel rumbling.
周圍隆隆巨響
An enormous flood quickly followed.
緊接而來的就是湍急的洪水
Lake Missoula s water had begun a fast and furious journey across the American continent.
密蘇拉湖水滾滾而來 以及快的速度肆虐過美國的陸地
It would be moving very fast.
速度一定非?？?/p>
We're driving at just about the same speed as the water.
我們現在的車速和洪水速度差不多
It would have torn through the landscape
洪水肆虐過陸地
with the energy equivalent of 60 Amazon Rivers.
那能量相當于六十條亞馬遜河的能量
It would have ripped up everything in its path.
洪水將沖走面前的一切
You can imagine water a hundred metres above your head,
你可以想象下高你百米的洪水
all dark, filled with sediment and all kinds of debris, large rocks,
天昏地暗，帶著沉淀物，各種碎片，大石塊
trees, woolly mammoths, anything.
樹木，猛犸象般的巨物，等等
I think it would be absolutely terrifying.
那絕對太可怕了
The water cut into the land up to 650 feet deep,
洪水沖過陸地，沖刷出二百米深的大溝
excavating billions of tons of solid rock.
挖出了幾十億噸的巖石
It would probably be described as a kind of giant monster.
說是巨大的怪獸也毫不過分
