MONSTER GLACIER COLLAPSE Caught on Camera 

Many non English speaking cultures don't like swearing too. Whenever I, a German, swear in the English tongue, it feels less strong & less wrong somehow.

It's very common for Danes. Which is bullshit because we have some excellent curses in Danish.

@@fritz3388 indeed i love saying schiesse because it feels less strong & less wrong somehow.

I assume you've seen the one titles "chasing ice".. biggest one ever recorded.. it so big you will have trouble understanding how big, we're talking Manhattan side pieces. enjoy.

@@ohlookitsasquirrel Yes! Mind blowing! Almost too big to fathom, even with the visual overlay of Manhattan. Have to remember to check it out again, but next time on our 65” smartTV!

There's always one 'door handle' isn't there, who insists on sharing his voice with something rare like this. Come on people, learn to shut up, noone wants to be impressed by how impressed you are.

Yeah I find all of the cursing to be so off-puting

There is a button to turn down the sound.. They recorded it and put it on for you to see, but you still find something to gripe about. If I record something like this, I will be talking in the background.

@@lesleyhenry5031 basically you're one of those who like to talk during recording video

By rating that one at #6, the makers of this video reveal a lack of appreciation for scale. Also, in the original -- which I cannot locate -- the on-site videographer scrambles to higher ground in response to the incoming wave.

A good word might be "epic!" The recording is fabulous: you know something big is about to happen as you see the gap widen between the ice cliffs so fast as the process begins. There's a saying: "glacial time." Not this time.

They are speaking Danish, not Icelandic..

As beautiful as they are, appreciate seeing. 👍 Personally, no. 🤢

i would much rather watch on TV then live because i value my life and safety

Its normal, its been gone like that since ever, but nowadays brainwashed people think its new and they believe the global warming lies.

I agree with you, I’m from Oklahoma & it’s cold enough here, I don’t have to go look for it. Where there’s ice it’s cold.

Billions of years.

​@@PruneHub Nope, thousands of years. The scientific evidence, when looked at objectively, supports young earth. If you go into with the belief that nothing created everything, it will support whatever you want it to.

@@fdavidharrisson5023 I'm a Christian and I know that God created everything. As for how long ago He did it, I don't know. I've read the complete Bible twice, and numerous parts many times but that doesn't mean I understand it all.

@PruneHub I get it. I'll tell you how to guage the age of the earth. YHWH made the earth in 6 days. In the Hebrew, it means a literal 6 days. On the 6th day, He made Adam. So you have your starting point. Read Genesis 5 and 11. That will give you the number of years from Adam to Abraham. Then read Matthew 1. That will give you the years from Abraham to Messiah. It's about 4000 years. Then, add 2000 years from Messiah to the present. The earth is approximately 6,000 years old.

@@fdavidharrisson5023 There's a lot that's not clear to fallible humans, and we won't understand until we're perfected. Do we go straight to heaven when we die? Some verses (like "Today you will be with me in Paradise") seem to say so. Other verses (like "the dead in Christ will rise first" and "the dead know nothing") seem to say otherwise.

We're from Canada as well : ) We got some crazy Weather Disasters coming from Canada. Stay Tuned !

It's not a new thing, but the rate is increasing. And yes, AGW is the prevailing scientific consensus.

@@bluto212 I grew up in Germany and even worked for a local environmental group in the early 90’s. I take climate change seriously. I just want to be certain that the remedies we are being presented are the best band for the buck instead of influenced by economic interests, whereby we may not be getting the returns that are promised. However, the related discussions seem to be one sided to the point where one feels they are almost guided. I am sure you don’t want your children or grandchildren some-day to ask you, how could be so trusting, how could you have burdened them with so much extra debt that ended up making little return. We have to keep the discussions fair and open. Also let’s not forget that science is evolving. There are many things we thought we knew that have been revised later.

It's amazing that you don't know warming is a thing .

Correct, calving is caused by an increase in snowfall inland making the glacier thicker and therefore forcing it into the sea. Increases in temperature would cause the glacier to retreat and not advance like in this video !

@@bluto212 And "bat soup" was the prevailing consensus on the origin of covid. "Science" and "consensus" have nothing to do with each other.

Most people know exactly what is happening here. A glacier is a slow moving river of ice. Eventually the leading edge of the ice reaches deeper water and it inevitably breaks off. This is the event called calving. It’s not a matter of believing anything. The process is well documented and easily measurable.

But glaciers are mostly on land. The massive weight of all the ice pushes the ice down its path. But what you say is true ice that’s already in water won’t raise the water level significantly. What actually causes the most amount of sea level rise is the water temperature that’s rising. Because water expands when temperature rises. When I found this out not long ago I was shocked how big that influence is 🤯

You're right, but your condescending self-righteousness makes you silly. Like Sheldon Cooper.

@@jameshenry9873 odd response to facts but then again when you don’t have the facts attack the person right?

@@roysnider3456 misses the point but almost certainly not for the first time.

@@jameshenry9873 I think you missed the point, purposely. Troll

Your comment shows your intelligence level.1 go back to school please don't have any children😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Harumph!

or arms.

No, the bottom gets erosion from the salt water making it float above the bottom. It gets fractures and eventually breaks off, which is what you are seeing in the video.

I went all the way to a geophysics doctorate.

😢

I had read years ago that the blue color is a result of higher levels of oxygen in the ice due to compression over time.

@@jonkaminsky8382 It's the opposite, actually. Higher levels of compression drive out all the air bubbles.

But South-America is not 80% covered with ice...

No. You're right, but you don't understand why.

The chair is against the wall.

That’s what the tictok gen does. Also they laugh like hyenas.

@@iteerrex8166 every gen* This isn't new.

@@gardenofsn5955 True that the a good portion of teens of any gen is a little off, shall we say. But unfortunately this one is big time off, thanks to what they are exposed to these days.

That is trippy. However, I think it probably is the same piece, with nearly the entire above-water part crumbling apart. That caused the rest to suddenly lose a ton of weight, which is what caused it to shoot up so spectacularly.

Um,, yeah yeah sure sure. 😂

Who?

Makes me wonder what is the farthest south or conversely that an icebergs ever traveled from the poles or any iceberg?

God I would like to introduce you or youses to a random RU-vid viewer.

@@almightyyt2101 ohh your fictional angry sky fairy lol

Actually, as we are still technically coming out of the last glacial maximum and lower latitude glaciers have a high probability of continuing to lose mass overall. There may have been multiple periods in Earth's history when there was practically no ice outside of the polar regions. Perhaps even atop high mountain ranges. It seems the Earth doesn't need glaciers.

Why is it sad? It's just the Earth au naturel.
