glacier: i'm gonna do something interesting
cameraman: lemme point the camera at everything except the glacier
Too busy crapping his pants.
He is thinking about you.
LOL. good one.
Put some ice on it.
That is literally the funniest comment I've seen on youtube in 5 years
Robert Bacjand I agree, this comment is under appreciated.
You're The Man
Sometimes you say something so funny you cant believe it came out of your own mouth......... for me ... it would have kinda been like that.....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Never use zoom when you are filming a glacier!
THANK YOU
Never use it period
@@nooki1102 Exactly
This man gets a D- just for being there.
Should stick to audio only...now that would be sensational.
I was looking forward to the massive wave. A true videographer would have taken an ice shard to the eye, an arrow to the knee and kept the cam on the action.
Yeah, an arrow to the knee. From a glacier. Probably ice indians.
Alaska. Ice Eskimo.
Yup,, when I shoot lightening photography,, the storm may be approaching but as long as I get those lightening shots I keep shooting. My famous last words.. I like to shoot the storms but they still scare me... I now have remote control so I can shoot from my car.. but you still have to get out every once in a while to check focus..
lmbo👍
Damn straight.
It's all fun & games until someone has projectile ice shards sticking outta their head & chest from a calving glacier 🤷🏾♂️🙆🏽♂️😂🤣
Well...they shouldn't have gotten so close! Remember the old saying:"Stupid is as stupid does"? That saying applies here!
But what souvenir.
Always that one lady screaming like it's the end of the world, then afterwords keeps repeating "we're ok, we're ok, it's ok-we're ok"
Glad you were there to witness that exact lady screaming then saying OK. And also if her half- second scream is an reaction to the End of the world, then she's about the bravest soul to have ever lived. putz.
michael romine Lol, she was the only one freaking out, couldn't you hear it? Are you deaf? She screamed all she could, doesn't matter how long it lasted.
CmpMean the reason the lady was screaming is because one of the flying pieces of ice hit her, it completely shattered her right femur, you'd be screaming too big guy
CmpMean Yeah, but have you ever had one of your femurs digging into your femoral artery and saphenous nerve? ...Not to mention the rest of the muscles in your thigh that could potentially be receiving one helluva jab from the many shattered fragments of your hypothetically destroyed femur.. like the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, sartorius and adductor longus.
***** All I know is that this situation was nothing at all lol. No injuries from that.
Breathtaking camerawork! The shot of those sneakers, especially, nearly knocked me out of my chair.
Too much for me, I had to avert my eyes.
@@phapnui ROFL!
wish they had put an age limit on the video because i had kids in the room and i really dident want them to see those sneakers
@@chriss619 LOL!
The zooming in on the winter coats was a nice touch also.😏
Humans: We want to see something 8(
Glacier: hold my Ice woman
does anyone on youtube know how to hold a camera?
Apparently not
billfromwi yes, indeed!!!😬
fresky74 .
billfromwi I’m just glad people share their awesome, amazing and sometimes horrifying and scary life experiences. I enjoy watching a lot of it.
Funny!!! Fakeass people get hurt easy.....
Great video of the backs of parkas and everyone's feet.
🤣😂
Damn, I wanted to see the wave!
Why the People cant record i hate this so much! -.- zoom out dude ZOOM OUT!!!
In every video, everyone films the floor once the action gets good.
Doesn’t that just floor you when they do that? Lol!
Yah hoho, wooot, wow, omgosh, oooooh, SCREAMS of terror.
The skipper of the vessel is totally irresponsible for taking people in so close, very lucky it wasn't worse for the passengers.
Woulda been awesome if someone had caught this on camera.
That was cold.
Thank you to the Caucasian race for making this video possible. Glad no one was hurt
I was waiting for the tsunami to hit
I want to make a song about UA-cam comments. It has to capture the essence of the vile cesspool of scum and hatred that is the UA-cam comments. The blatant ignorance, the intentional aggravation, the naive assumptions and blind arrogance. Man would that be a song. I dont want you guys to change, I dont want you to get a life. I just want to bank off the utter idiocy that I get entertained by on a daily basis.
I agree my friend...it would be an epic song...start composing it
reddit.com/r/youtubecomments is the place you're looking for
@Bear7 Bear7 Umm, I'm pretty sure OP was joking...
They retaliated by blasting the glacier with a massive plume of black smoke.
TAKE THAT NATURE!!
*****
Don't blame poor DullardGuy. He's probably one of those Americans that still think the word 'gay' is an insult.
*****
You're totally right. Not seeing the word 'gay' as an insult is a very big issue. I'll have to work on that. I fail to understand how it makes me racist though.
phaelin
Well just look closer "He's probably one of those Americans..."
iSkyShotz
True, but unfortunately that's true. So far almost everyone I've seen scream 'gay' when they disagree with someone is from the US. I have no clue why. But you do have a point. I should've said 'people'.
+phaelin Flinging insult with insult. Great.
amazing video of shoes, backs of heads and the deck of the boat.
I was just watching another glacier calving clip and I was imagining how amazing it would be to experience something like that firsthand. The feel of the brisk, cold air. Staring in wonderment at nature's might and majesty. Then I started thinking about how large some of those calvings could be and that the water is basically death if you have to go in it. "Nahhh, I'll just watch youtube videos of other people going there instead." *clicks on this clip* "Good idea."
lol same
I just love when mother nature takes her revenge on the masses.
mhmm
fuck yes
mrPauljacob hahaha! I just watched it again. That blood curdling scream of sheer terror was awesome as shit! Oh so happy and within mere seconds it becomes a question of survival. Cheers homie!
+Brad Beasley lol hell yeah bud.. cheers indeed I'm about to get drunk
+Brad Beasley you're a freak
Here's a bunch of people paying for a trip into an environment they only know from Disney Channel or maybe Discovery Channel. When they see the massive ice-chunk fall into the water they still think it's TV, "We're good" :))...until they realize it's no longer TV.
Death is not far and waiting anxiously,,on those trips. All laughing and cheering, till mother nature shows you who is in charge. Lucky boat.
@TheLuigifan8881
I don't think that's what they meant.
Just simply that we must always be aware of our surroundings while visiting and viewing the more dangerous events she has to offer.
That's the beauty of it!
Our little blue rock. Our home.
It supports us as we hurtle through space at 67,000 mph around our very own star. We get everything we need from it. And in seconds it can turn from routine to life and death to take everything away.
Never take nature for granted and never take life for granted. Always be prepared.
I just love flatlanders in the wild! And what happened to the tour boats captains thought process Um, let me see, did being there turn dangerous? Or, um, WAS IT ALLREADY DANGEROUS and you entered the danger zone.While we are on this subject, did you hear about the tourist at Yosemite, suggested that the park should train the (wild) bears to 'perform' for the tourists!!!
You like to have some ice in your drinks? ... One moment please!
I wonder if at some point someone doesn't say to themselves, "Maybe all these smaller slides are indicative of a larger event..." Not judging just saying.
They don't! They are just dumb tourists. 🤷♂️🤣🤦♂️
Why the fuck are you recording them jackets worn by them people on the boat?!!
That was way too close, chunks way larger than that commonly fall Oo These tour operator are irresponsible. Like the ones who sailed just next to the lava entering the ocean at Hawaii.
Lol, that shriek at 0:49 is so stereotypical horror movies.
Hahahahahaha😂
Don't you love it when you get 5 seconds of action and 1 minute and 20 seconds of dizziness.
Like most modern western action movies with too much shaky cam
I love how they went from "Ahh, Ohhhh!" to "Ouch, ohhh..." in only a few seconds and a damn lot of ice.
Hahahaha some people are so stupid!!! Shouldn't have been there if you were worried about getting hurt! Just like sky diving, don't jump if your not willing to die!
Go Mother Nature!
🌬💨🌬💨🌬💨🌬💨🌬💨🌬💨
Look at that beautiful blue ice!
Well, it's nice until it hits you in the face...
Как страшно и красиво одновременно . Дух захватывает . Жаль только что ледники тают и ето очень плохо для всей земли .
I hope that boat wasn't spewing that black smoke (0:58) all the time.
People rave on about conservation and protecting the planet and how man just exhaling is causing global warming and then burn how much diesel fuel to move a large ship how many miles into 'pristine' waters chugging black smoke into the air so they can look at nature. That doesn't even mention the anti-fouling painted on the hull of the boat that is leaching into the water, nor the noise pollution that the engine generates directly into the water which impacts all marine life, especially whales.
Darwinism at its finest.
The ice caps are melting and these people are cheering. Glacier's way of saying fuck off.
Love the huge cloud of engine smoke that's helps global warming to melt the icebergs even faster ....
Parabéns muito bom mesmo Deus abecoi asu vida amei todos escritos amei 🤔😲😃🙏🙏👏👏👍👍
Should be renamed "Ameriican Whales get hit by flying ice"
Says the guy named after an American made character
Dumb twat... tiamat is from Mesopotamian Religion... lmao... dumb yank
tiamat2009yt
I'm sure that is what you are named after as well.
@TheLuigifan8881 awesome. I love how idiots like him half a decade ago can make fun of americans but if we make fun of his people were racist
The only thing that hit the captain harder than the ice was the litigation.
Just put some ice.
Sad that people are laughing and almost applauding our Glaciers melting... This is NOT a good thing!
Its an art form to recording nature like this. You HAVE to keep focus on the event in front of you when you're freaking out. Not your feet. Once the ice fell, we saw nothing. It was over at that point.
Calving events can easily get to be ten times that size. Meaning, the skipper of that boat could easily have lost the boat and all souls on board, getting that close. Meaning, there's one born every minute.
Which makes the skipper an idiot, not a sucker. The quote is, "There's a sucker born every minute".
This video had such huge potential but when the good stuff was happening he just got all over the place. Everything was ok, he should have kept filming.
I don't think they expected the impact that they got
Poor lady probably screams everytime she sees a glass of ice water, now! Just damaged...
Shad Jennings dont pop a paper bag behind her
That was good up until he/she started filming peoples coats. What about the wave?
I would love to have seen that wave! That is so immense that it's hard to put into perspective but it must have been a rush. Just think of the energy involved, a piece/pieces of that glacier hit the boat... and fast.
The moment is well captured, but the camera work ....
super sad... water levels gently rising,soon we'll see how many will be celebrating the results
As the floating ice melts,air escapes and water levels FALL.
party pooper
It’s called calving
Holy F*CK That was amazing and scary if I get smashed by one of the glaciers!!
Thankfully, the glacier survived without injury
It's all fun and games until a chunk of ice hits you on the fucking head!
Boooring.... Needs more vampires.
And dragons
or cowbell
why don't you give the camera to someone useful instead of filming down
Its all fun and games until someone's chest is caved in by a large boulder of ice :D
I wonder how fast those chunks of ice were moving. It’s like nature heaping a bunch of iced shrapnel at you.
Well done captain! You went from hero to zero in a split second 🤙🏼 top job.
Il ne faut pas s approcher si près! Surtout lorsqu on transporte des touristes. Que ça lui serve de leçon au pilote inconscient de mettre en danger la vie d autrui.
when did things like this become a Vacation or Get Away? I mean its super cool but dangerous:3
The companies that run these little boat excursions should know better than to get too close.
That boats engine smokes WAYYYYYYY too much. Time to care and change it
The Earth clap back.
1:21
*Thank me later ;)*
Mother Nature won't be fucked with.
Not when bloody great piece of ice heads you in the head :)
Crude comments are not warranted here. This seems to be a cruise ship excursion, and some of the passenger on the boat are seniors out for a day trip. Why didn't the captain move the boat as the sheets of ice began to get larger and larger?
You would think he would have the sense to do that!
Ice cold baby
Get a blanket lol 😝 need some help over here 👈 lol 😝
Why did they stop laughing when ice hit the boat? It's when I started laughing...
Well, you didn't get a shard of ice jammed in your eyeball....
That was really smart. Your lucky
wow that ice was really moving when it hit the boat
They stopped laughing pretty quick.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg...
Its all fun and games until its not.
"It slit the guy's calf, get a blanket"...! Holy shit, ICE MISSILS!
That wasnt dangerous...
Lmao who tf screamed at 0:48
what was that black smoke?
STOP GLOBEL WERMIN DARMIT!
There’s always one...
I only wish this video wasn`t zoomed. so you could acually see distance from which ice cubes are flying
1:01 Global warming in one shot lol
I assure you, it's a real video. I live here and it happens on a daily basis.
Its ok. Its only americans
Now THAT was cool!!!
1:01 the reason why we won't see this show again 30 or 40 years from now...
🧊 fell like Shaq🚶
0:53 '....OH FUCK!'
Bullcrap gonzo tourism.....first screaming your lungs out , like you're on the fun fair ....then moaning about a little ice.
Anyway ....who allowed the ship to get so close under this towering collapse ? ..Got their just deserve maybe ?
Spoiling an interesting glacier calving capture.........
@MrBacco17 Right the Train Professionals are watching ice break off. Makes sense
Year after year people put themselves in harms way for cheap thrills. Hmm, let's sit on the edge of a volcanic crater too and watch the lava spew to skyscraper heights... :/
That's not the only thing that makes it dangerous. Falling in that water would be certain death, instant hypothermia
And second by second, zombies turn their backs to traffic while walking and texting....... Glaciers are much safer.
I frickin CANT STAND SOMEONE WHO IS DEDICATED TO CAPTURING VIDEO AND FILMS THE FREAKING FLOOR!!!. Such a pet peeve!. Don't look around with the camera or anything, dont worry, we'll use our imagination of who needed a blanket and why they needed a blanket. Or why the girl said " dont freak out or anything".. Why did she say this?... I'm asking because... WE DONT FRICKIN KNOW BECAUSE YOU RECORDED THE FLOOR OF THE DAMN BOAT!!!🤦
It's all very impressive until you realise you are in harms way!
Damn, that wall fell outward and didn't slide down, that's insane. Those smaller ice chunks were flying fast!!!
The guy's creepy laugh cracks me up. "Huh, huh, huh, OH MY GOD!!!"
Oh shit, how did my Uncle Gary get there?
