[ToraToraTora]

In episode 1 he refers to these rock formations.

Anyone any idea where they are?

[Old_Geezer]

As I see it, what they are is stretched in a vertical plane beyond belief.

[Khandro]

Amazing formation, but whatever they are, they are now even older that when the photo was taken, 'cos Brian is quite a young man there.

[ToraToraTora]

no that's just distortion, it was his latest TV show and I took the picture off the TV.

[Bazile]

Any chance of doing the link using another host apart from ibb ?

He was in Iceland and judging by the way the columns are bent, it might be here,

 That looks like Fingals cave in Scotland.

Dave 10:01 yes the show was in Iceland and I suspected that may be the case for these rocks but it also had a very British weather feeling so I wondered if they were in UK somewhere.

Thanks all

CBL - studlathic cnyone - must be iceland the d is a wyn ( th) and not a thorn ( th )

vertical strata shows volcanic activity - the strata should be flat

did he cover that ?

All the geologists of the 1830s were priests and schooled in " God created the world and left it at that" - and here was direct evidence that the world had changed after creation

confused curates in cognitive dissonance

Easy for Darwin to say - occurs in Biology as well you know
