No sleeping. Totally facinated. No matter how many videos or online courses i do about volcanoes and igneous rocks i always find something new. I guess it facinates me cos i live in reykjanes peninsula which is basically volcano heaven mainly basaltic fissure eruptions, but we have composite volcanoes in iceland. Having said that in spring we had a very friendly non explosive volcano erupt and we got to go and explore that often. It was so amazing Its got me into this side of things. Love your videos thank you so much :)

I am a biology teacher here in the philippines and I am starting to learn geology on my own. Your videos greatly help my self-study.

I'm in the process of studying for my PG exam and your video series have seriously been a vital tool. As a hydrologist I didn't get much of a geology background which makes trying to jump in confusing. The way you lay out and explain all of the concepts and link them together through these videos has been fantastic. Thank you for all of your effort putting these together they are definitely appreciated ⛏️👏 Geo legend!

I'm really liking this course. I took hydrogeology years ago and I'm taking geology 101 on YouTube with nick Zentner right now. I'm 58 and can't figure out why I waited so long.

I'm an avid hiker in Northern California and I am amazed by the beauty and grandeur of the amazing rock formations in the Sierra Nevada. I come across huge volcanic boulders on my hikes... I always thought these were blown from a volcanic eruption, but now I'm thinking they came up from below?

I've decided to go back to "school" via youtube and books to study Geology. Thank you for these wonderful lessons!

I studied geology as a minor subject in university 20 years ago, but didn’t understand a lot. Now I see why, because I didn’t understand the basics, because they haven’t been taught to me in the right way. Thank you for these lectures!

[Krrispy]

You are an excellent teacher and presenter. Thank you for helping teach this material in such a clear way!

[gauravchandak]

I am an MBA student, not in any remote subjects. i have anything related to geology, yet I am here binge watching every part of this series, hoping to retain at least 50% of this so that some day I could help my kids for thsi subject.

Very, very interesting and clear explanation of the three groups of granitic, andesitic and gabbroic rocks, which has given me knew understanding
