The Sandfalls of Saudi Arabia...

in nature •  7 years ago  (edited)

I did not know such things even existed but sandfalls are actually real.
It seems that this is a relatively new phenomena and is caused by flooding or strong winds which causes sand to behave like a liquid, below is footage of this rare phenomena.

Below is another clip that seems to be the result of strong winds but still quite the spectacle.

Fun Fact

Saudi Arabia has no permanent lakes or rivers but instead there are "Wadis" which are river beds that are completely dry or begin to flow after heavy rains.
