Watching glaciers calving while we lived in Alaska was such an intense experience. If you ever travel there, I highly recommend it. First the cracking of the ice breaking away sounds so unique, and then watching as the dirty ice changes into that deep ice blue is just breathtaking. It was quite the tourist attraction, with boat tours taking people to areas of the state not normally inhabited by people, and the ability to go whale watching on the boat ride out and back.

I spent a few weeks around the Southern Patagonian Ice field. I saw something similar to the Viedma glacier on the Chilean side. The sight of a glacier front collapsing and the huge blue 'shards' rising out of the water as the ice re-balances was one of the most awesome things I've seen. I recognise the icy winds that were blowing in that first video - the winds coming off the Andes are fierce and sometimes blow you off your feet!

When it comes to "Columbia", you have your geography completely muddled up. The Columbia glacier in Alaska is NOT part of the Columbia ice field; in fact, it is nowhere near it. The Columbia ice field is in Alberta and British Columbia in Canada - it does not extend into Alaska, and none of its glaciers reach sea level, so obviously there will be no major calvings from them. How could you get things so wrong?

Even in the video, when they show the Columbia Ice Field from space-view, it is very apparent that it does not reach the ocean anywhere. As an European I am not particularly familiar with the geography of the region, but this contradiction caught my eye. And ironically this does not work as a simple mix-up of the glacier with the ice field either, because the ice field that supports the Columbia Glacier is not on the border of the two countries either, it is fully in Alaska.

Sermeq Kujalleq is very difficult to get close to, so if you want to see it, the closest thing you can get to it is by helicopter.

Amazing video. 15:00 It is not just that the boat was far away enough. But the thing is that it's clearly on significantly deep water. Waves - especially the tsunami-kind ones (which is what they are) - tend to have a much smaller amplitude (hight) in deeper water, while having a much longer wavelength. If you look closely, you can actually see the waves coming, but it goes much more gradually. If there exists any other coast line behind the boat, the waves can still build up when approaching that coast while shortening in length (when the water depth decreases closer to that coast), and still cause a significant impact. In other words: it's completely possible that boats on the middle of deep water hardly notice anything while somewhere else effects are clearly noticable.

There is the Columbia Glacier where this caving event took place in Alaska and the Columbia Icefield in Banff National Park in Alberta Canada which is 1269 miles or 2042 km away to the southeast. Though this error does not take away from the importance of highlighting the dangers of our crumbling glaciers are having on our planet.

Ice calving at a sea terminus is something glaciers have been doing for millennia. I think if you actually look at the extent of the ice sheets and mass of glaciers is defying experts' predictions and holding up in spite of our fears. The North Pole was supposed to be ice-free by now. There's a lot of climate revisionism being pushed by the establishment, right now. I'm old enough to remember the '70s, when the same people were warning about catastrophic cooling and a new ice age just around the corner. While I'll agree with you that pollution is bad, I'm not sure this whole CO2 thing is driving climate change significantly, and a lot of the people who're pushing the doom and gloom want to sell you electric cars that require a lot of filthy lithium and cobalt mining that may be worse for humanity and the planet than too much plant food in the atmosphere. There've been a lot colder and a lot warmer times in Earth's geological past, and CO2 levels seem to have very little to do with it. We may even be helping green up the planet by releasing CO2 natural processes would otherwise lock away from plants in the Earth's crust.

Don't worry there's more snow falling up on high ground replacing what breaks of annually. No one talks about that though.

5:23 Yeah no... That's not how area works. 5000 miles being around 8000 km doesn't make 5000 square miles about 8000 square km. It's actually more like 13000 square km...

I was lucky enough to visit Patagonia a few years ago, including the Argentinian side of the glacier park. We walked across part of the Viedma glacier using crampons, and from the lake we saw some minor icebergs breaking away, but nothing like what you show here. I’d be interested to know what the rate of increase is.

I'm 25 years old. I just travelled to Chamonix in December 2021 and saw the glacier there dropped 50 metres in a few years. In 2018, I went to Venice and saw floodings becoming more common. I really wonder how the world will look like when I'm 65. Will these glaciers still exist? Will Venice still exist?

Basically no, neither of those will exist, and that is probably a foregone conclusion at this point. It's happening so fast the question is will WE exist? Will our generation get to die in a bed of old age? I honestly think the odds are highly against it right now. Our later years might be travelling in caravans to pockets where wet bulb conditions won't kill you and live in squalor if you're "lucky" enough to survive at the rate things are moving. It sounds like doomday and end of the world stuff I know, but it's actually science. They cover how fast these are melting and how much of the world's fresh water is stored in these (especially Antarctica). Don't want to accept the science? No shortage of people who don't want to do that. I'm not sure how these older people that are very well aware of what the glaciers looked like in the 70s and what they look like (you all visited them didn't you, we know what life was like for your generation vs ours and that you got to travel) now continue to deny it other than guilt and shame and a cowardice to face themselves that defines that generation. At least in America they have to be the most worthless loser generation we've EVER had. Remember what you've seen. We will have a very narrow window when these boomers finally die (COVID is helping, maybe it's that generations judgement day as it largely kills seniors) and we have precious little time left to do anything to even mitigate some damage and maybe avoid the whole caravan thing. If we're being honest here they are such an obstacle that every one of them that dies actually helps both reduce the energy overconsumption and removing political obstacles.

these glacier collapses aren't "spectacular" and they aren't entertainment. nature is demonstrating to ALL OF US that corporate corruption and industrialization is DESTROYING our planet's ability to maintain life as we know it. these glaciers are ESSENTIAL to our ecosystem. they help regulate global temperatures and saline balance in the world's oceans! yet we sit here and DO NOTHING to protect our only home. we allow the profit motive of billionairs to determine our planet's future.

Your description of the Columbia Ice Fields has them being shared between Alaska and the Banff and Jasper National Parks in Canada. Check your geography and you will see that neither Banff nor Jasper are anywhere near Alaska, and neither is the continental divide - it runs down the Rockies in line with the Alberta-British Columbia border. The ice fields can be seen while driving the Jasper-Banff Parkway.
