VIDEO: "Where The Boys Are" Movie Proves NO Sea Level Rise in Florida

VIDEO

The opening credits of the 1960 film "Where The Boys Are," filmed in 1959, inadvertently proves that despite the hype to the contrary, there has been NO noticeable sea level rise in South Florida. This observation of the aerial shot of the Ft. Lauderdale beaches in that movie as a way to compare to the width of today's beaches was first made several years ago by Brian Craig, co-host of the Steve Kane show on WWNN radio.

This video takes that film clip and compares it with recent aerial photos of the beaches in the Ft. Lauderdale area. Also revealed in this video is the shocking identity of the global warming promoter making the the most absurd claims of them all about supposedly rising sea levels.

A movie about girls who hope to meet boys at the beach? What about lesbian or trans whatever females, what about their hopes to meet someone?

The joke's on us... they actually have taken over the beaches surrounding where the movie was set.

Yes - most beaches are either always gaining sand, or losing sand due to the currents. Although the jetties do help. In Naples, FL they dredge the sand from a few thousand feet offshore and put it back on the beach every so often.

They have a big barge/dredge offshore and run a huge hose up to the beach.

Miami Beach was basically created by dredging sand from the bottom of Biscayne Bay and pouring it onto Miami Beach. Before Carl Fisher did this, Miami Beach was basically a watery mangrove barrier island. Oh, and they used the dredging equipment from the Panama Canal to achieve this task.

Better yet, there are plenty of old coastal sites that are now well inland due to silting and river delta growth. Troy, at the time of its famous war, was on the coast, but is now 3 miles inland.

The amazing thing is the huge variety of music. Soul, rock psychedelic, country rock. Endless, amazing innovation.

Just imagine a song like “Ode to Billy Joe” or “Polk Salad Annie” or “Sunday Will Never Be the Same” or “California Dreaming” or “Monday, Monday” or “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy” or “The Twist” or “Hot Fun In The Summertime” or “Do You Believe in Magic” or “I Want to Hold Your Hand” getting written and performed today!

Wasn’t that a great time to be young? Netflix had a wonderful documentary about the Wrecking Crew. Not sure if it’s still there, but if you haven’t seen it, I suggest finding it. Fantastic group of musicians whose catalogue of music is amazing.

There is a book, too, and they go into even more great stories. Highly recommended.

Do those efforts adjust the boulders back to 1959, as well?

I don’t know, but for some reason cities in Broward County in county are spending millions to replenish beaches washed away in recent storms.

The land in La Jolla hasn’t moved up or down in the last 130 years. Neither has the ocean. Where is this sea level catastrophe happening? On a sandbar? At current melt rates, it will take 300,000 years for Antarctica to melt.

A lot of erosion has occurred over the last 140+ years. In the blink animation above (click on the image to see animation) note that the rock under the three people standing on the right in the 1871 image is gone, and has formed a small island of boulders with three people sitting on it in the recent image. There is no evidence that sea level has risen.

A few Palm Trees have been planted, but the sea appears to be in exactly the same place it was 130 years ago. In fact the rocks on the upper right are higher above the water now than in the earlier picture (high tide.) There is no glacial rebound in San Diego, and the faults in the region are strike-slip (horizontal) faults. They don’t cause vertical movement. Prior to the March quake this year, the last large quake to hit the region was in 1862.

Beach erosion has nothing to do with sea levels. Erosion is a function of current flow.

I never said that eriaion and sea levels are related. I simply noted that because erosion takes place, these beaches have been renourished multiple times since the movie was made. Thus, you can’t really make a true comparison. If you made a comparison several years after the renourishment, you would come to the exact opposite conclusion presented here.
