Hiker freaks out over double rainbow. This is good..

I for one, listened and enjoyed his innocent expression of human emotion!

The vast majority of testicle carrying ATS'ers have probably shed more tears over sports scores through the years than anything of actual real world importance so people here that suggest this guy chill out, get a grip or check that he's not using his gf's birth control pills are partly why we're in this mess.

The guy had one of those special moments where this reality hit him full force, head on and he cried. He overflowed because his system, his meat suit, his earth experience decoder was subjected to a sudden sense of awe related to him experiencing what he believed was something spectacular.

There are secrets in our secretions. If you want to look into a conspiracy wonder why THEY told you REAL men DON"T cry.

Tears come in three types. Of the three, the deep hearty cry tears, like those we suspect were streaming down this guys cheeks while having this experience, aside from being emotionally uplifting and invigorating, are the most beneficial to men as they help rid the body of the heavy metals we acquired.

Crying is as necessary and beneficial for the earth, in the form of rain as it is in humans in the form of tears. As above, so below, we are a microcosmic version of our host.

TPTB want men to be limited in their ability to handle emotion because it keeps up locked in the lower chakras, hence all the social ques that poke fun at or emasculate the emotional man.

Remember the little boy who pulls the girls hair or punches. It's love that he's trying to express, he's just going about it with fewer tools than the older boy who approaches the girl, says hello and gives her a flower.

So I guess I'm saying grow up to those who think crying is for sissy's.

Thank god it didn't form into a triple rainbow.

That would have been entirely to much for him and I don't think a person can stand that much wonderment.

I could be very, very wrong, but as far as I knew, rainbows take place in the atmosphere as complete circles. Thus, it would be impossible to drive through one as the circular rainbows don't actually intersect the earth at any point in time, but, rather, exist in the atmosphere only.

Am I mistaken?


I don't know if you're mistaken or not but your explanation is the first that actually makes sense to me as to why you couldn't drive through one. That makes perfect sense to me.

In a way I kind of envy this guy. He is so happy and intrigued by that rainbow that he bursts into laughter and tears. I wish their were something that would make me feel that kind of emotion. Maybe if an alien spaceship were to land in my yard and escort me to the constellation sagittarius to listen to the radio I might get near that level of emotion. But most likely not.

Indeed!

Sadly for us tho, to get that sort of ecstasy, we either lose out minds or lose our liberty.

Sad that being so happy means - in our society - one or the other...

I know I couldn't get that emotional at a church, leaves me in a leaking boat really...

I think it's more of a style thing...those who are into the viral stuff have a disliking of that very term, I guess. There are 'viral' sites all around which, to those who know, tune in for the earliest possible releases, and they probably eschew the viral monniker. It just 'is', to them, cute, funny, deserving attention.

Yeah, once it's known to the masses it's probably passe', sort of like 'buy on the rumor, sell on the news', a form of hippness, which, paradoxically, can slay a truly cool release.

The double wide rainbow is a classic, instantly. There's no possible passe' for the net effect of it...it cannot be denied. Many of us will die with this embedded on our laptops.


all you need is a double complete rainbow across the sky.

Had to laugh, this is from Wikipedia's rainbow entry, looking for a quote for this lady:

According to the laws of physics, if you see a "Double Rainbow", and if it goes "All the Way" then you may start to cry and wonder what a double rainow really means.

haha that has to be an addition by someone who saw this clip previously. Simply for 2 reasons; firstly The laws of physics only ever, ever ever EVER calls for someone to cry when cutting onions, and secondly if you cut and pasted it, they left off the b in rainbow.

I smell a meme on the interweb.... I wonder watson, what is afoot, besides that smelly thing that runs in my family.

I think this guy is recovering from a serious emotional trauma and managed to release some of the pain by experiencing this double rainbow.

I'm being entirely serious.

i saw this the other day , my sister posted a link to her fb account , i thought the same exact thing as you did.

We drove right through the end of a rainbow too. On a two lane highway in Mississippi. It was awsome. The kids were freaking out. Sadly no gold just black top.

The only way that, that would be possible in my mind is if you drove out of the rainfall area (light, fine, heavy) just at the right place with the Sun behind you. ie the rain stopped/faded right after you passed through/under the rainbows base. That is in itself is a fun experience where you have rain literally dropping like a wall... one side wet the other side dry (lasts only seconds however as it passes over you).

If it was still raining well after you went through the rainbow (ie you hadnt left the rainfall area) then no, you couldn't have passed through the base of a rainbow, its optically impossible as it would continue to stay in a relative location to you.

A way you could replicate this (and its what might have happened like I mention in the first paragraph) is if you get a hose, turn it on to fine spray on a sunny day and you can then pass your hand through the rainbow it creates... but thats because the rainbow is confined to the area of the water droplets, which is easily within your reach.

Still no gold though ...

Ya ahl thinks ya can ootsmart an ole leprechan? I buried me pot before they put in thee road! Fooled ya!

This is absolutely hilarious. Tee rainbow itself did look quite awesome. I've seen a partial double before...but I certainly didn't break down like this dude did.

Anyway....great stuff.

HAHAHAHA.

The people I work with quote this all the time. All. The. Time. There is like, a music video people made with this too it's pretty good... They sing it often... and I listen, laughing hahaha

sounds like someones been eating some of the mushrooms along the hiking path if you ask me.

I just heard about that which is how I first came across the video. Was going to post it on ATS if it wasn't up already.

If we all enjoyed things as much as this guy the world would be a better place.

FOr the love of god...I can't stop laughing at this. Next time I have a S'y day I'll have to watch this. IF this doesn't make someone at least crack a grin then they probably don't have a soul.
