YouTube Earthquake Forecaster Predicting With Shocking Accuracy
An online independent forecaster continues to make prescient predictions of future earthquakes using seismic data, Google Earth, and imaging from the recently launched GOES weather satellite.
His predictions have consistently fallen within a 70 to 80 percent accuracy range, correctly predicting the recent spate of earthquakes on the Pacific, from southern Peru to Alaska. His predictions over the next week portend earthquakes shaking locations in the Midwest and northern New York.
Using the pseudonym Dutchsinse, the forecaster’s YouTube videos provide fast-paced walkthroughs of global seismic events with uncanny accuracy. Over the past week he has correctly predicted a multitude of quakes throughout the west coast of North and South America, picking up on evidence from geophysical and tectonic activity to eruptions from volcanoes and fracking operations.
His latest video, in the wake of predicting a 7.9 magnitude in Alaska, as well as a 5.8 magnitude quake in northern California, shows two plumes of steam erupting from locations in Death Valley and the Grand Canyon. Dutchsinse points to these two spots as being isolated, arid, and desolate localities to dispel comments from detractors saying he’s just seeing weather phenomena or controlled burns from farmers.
He also notices that at one point in the day, there appears to be small eruptions of steam across the Midwest. Upon further inspection, he discovers that all of those spots were fracking and oil drilling locations, from which tectonic activity is emitting steam.
Within the next week he expects an earthquake to hit the east coast, an area that rarely sees significant seismic activity. But not to fear (hopefully), Dutchsinse thinks this quake will only be within the 3.0 magnitude range, striking near the border between Canada and northern New York. A quake of this magnitude could be felt within a roughly 100-mile radius from its epicenter.
To add to the intrigue, some have commented that his predictions, which have often trumped those of “professional” seismologists, are being suppressed on YouTube’s view counter. This, he tends to agree with, as well as an occasional off-handed, conspiratorial comment here and there.
We’ll see if his predictions continue to hold up. In the meantime, his channel is updated several times a week with more groundbreaking foresight.

Inside DARPA's Brain Initiative; 5 Programs Expose Military's Transhumanist Agenda
It’s becoming increasingly inevitable – the singularity, our post-human, cyborg destiny. And the next jump may be a neural interface interacting with brain networks to manipulate how the body feels, react and even heals, both voluntarily and involuntarily. If this sounds reminiscent of any number of sci-fi films, that’s because it is, and it’s being spearheaded by DARPA, the military’s experimental, tech-research branch.
The DARPA Brain Initiative is ostensibly benevolent and meant to have wide-reaching applications in the medical world, helping civilians and veterans recover from traumatic mental health issues and physical injuries. These neural interfaces could allow prosthetics to have as much feeling as an actual limb, or tell your body when to release antibodies to fight infection faster than it normally would.
Though with DARPA, it’s also possible that the more enticing goal would be to create the ultimate warrior, an advanced superhuman cyborg, both physically and mentally superior to the unadulterated human. And some of these initiatives seem to hint at just that. The following five programs will give you an idea of what DARPA aims to achieve and the potential for a positive application. Could these transhumanist advancements unlock our superhuman potential?
