Ilulissat Icefjord - Large iceberg breaking over

[@chris784100]

That was BAAAD ASSSS! Excellently shot too! Watching this shows you how awful even the best CGI effects are. It was almost too much to take in all at once. Again you did a great job Mr. Stephano Sphielborgen!

[@markhilken7026]

Awesome video, I find that the iceberg trying to find it's center of gravity is more interesting than the actual calving process itself

Incredible footage. Been on an iceberg/glacier rabbit-hole and went my whole life living near these things, but never fully appreciated how amazing they are.

[@updownstate]

Can you imagine having to call in to work bc you're surrounded by icebergs? That could use up your vacation days.

That is probably the most impressive video I have ever seen, you must feel privileged to have witnessed it. I'm glad the other guy filming was OK. Many thanks for uploading.

Amazing. Thank you for posting this. I followed the link from the other fellow who recorded it lower down. The sheer mass of that iceblock is truly amazing, that it's been frozen for hundreds of thousands of years, and now is under the sun light. It really boggles the mind. Awesome.

[@Dani-it5sy]

This ice doesn't need to be so old. Did you know that only 6.000 years ago there were no glaciers on the main land of Norway? While only 18.000 years ago there was so much ice on the poles that the north sea didn't even existed? The water level was 122m lower than it is now. Sea levels rise and fall rapidly all the time. It's a big misconception that all the glaciers are still from the last ice age hundreds of thousands of years ago. . But sssttt... Don't mention it. People might take the global warming story less serious if the knew 😉

[@HighlanderNorth1]

😂 Yeah, there's another of these calving videos from another source, who exaggerated and overreacted to the nonexistent danger they apparently assumed they were in! The funny thing is that they were darn near twice as high above the water line as ^they were, and further from the edge too. Also they were watching a smaller, less significant calving event. But yet they kinda freaked out and forgot all about capturing the video! Instead, the guy starts running uphill as if his life depended on it, while flailing the camera around. They looked to be at least 100-150 feet(30-45m) above the water line, and at least 300-400 feet(100-125m) from the edge of the water, and the highest waves wouldnt have exceeded 15-20 feet(4.5 - 6m) in height! 😁

So they speak fluently in a foreign language and when they curse they speak fluently in English? What Gives?

They are cursing in their native language too, English just stole those words back in the times of Danelaw.

there is a guy somewhere down the hill from you who was filming at the time however, about at the middle point or right when it was starting to get good he turns around and runs for higher ground and completely misses the entire thing. it was the most frusrtating videos ive ever seen lol thank you for recording this and letting me see it in its length

This is great. I'm so happy you got the whole thing, as I had seen the other guy's video and it was interrupted at the crucial moment, as he ran for his life! It was difficult to judge the scale until I saw the man at 3:16. I thought maybe the wave was a metre or so, but now I realise that it was three or four metres. Well done for being in the right place at the right time! I hope you don't mind, but I left a comment on the other man's video with a link to this one, as quite a few people were frustrated at him missing the best bits and there wasn't a link to this video. OK?

[@ahstrewth]

Ok...you are there on the spot. You have probably spent many many days hoping for that magical shot. And then it happens...and you pan the camera all over the place totally destroying context. Why...if you spend so much time and effort do you not have a fixed camera recording the whole scene and individual cameras to zoom in on some aspects you judge exceptional...which could be edited in to a montage later without losing overall context. This Ilulissat breakup is the most spectacular I have ever seen. I envy you....and others ...that may have witnessed it firsthand. I really do hate to criticise....the sidewalk superintendent I never want to be. But....

[@Pauly421]
