It's not really unique, it's actually really common. No one really wants to just stand outside in -17 degree weather to watch ice floats 1 inch every month
Csn u imagine being there at NIGHT and just hearing that. WOW. Ty for posting this🌹💖🌍🌎🇺🇸
@@a1locc25 -17 farenheit? Or celsius? If celsius, thats not very cold
The blue hue of the water as the iceberg flipped was so satisfying.
Ikr that water looked so fresh
@@TheDragonLindy It is literally quite fresh
it comes from the iceberg when it melts I think
oh wait, someone said it's from the iceberg reflecting light or something
Idjits
It's so incredible how vividly blue that water is!
Its because of the low temperature, i visited Mt Cook in New Zealand and the river down the mountain made by the melted ice was so so blue and clean, the most cleanest water i have ever been, i jumped into that water but my head almost freezed in 5 seconds haha
@@sos.gamers why would you swim in that I can’t even swim in pools in the summer without getting cold😩
@@fart63 haha just for the experience 🤣
@@fart63 I don't imagine a fart could last very long in subarctic temperatures, lol ...
@AFTV AND SIDEMEN CLIPS didn't realize this was from global warming... just thought the water looked nice
Whoever recorded this: Thank you for not screaming, not shouting out 'Oh My God!' a hundred times whilst whooping & a hollering.
This is an awesome capture. A true once in a lifetime moment captured & forever.
Amen to that! Take note everyone, this is how it's done!
i wonder if this is once in a lifetime or if they see icebergs flip all the time
Yes thankfully they didn’t ruin you watching them experiencing something awesome by showing some emotion, everyone should just shut up and not show emotion in moments where it might annoy you. Sarcasm aside get some perspective and humble yourself.
You saw THAT video too huh?
@@jacobstrong5685Oh shut the hell up, kid. It's not that deep.
It's amazing how respectfully quiet the crowd is.
Not everyone is as loud as American white girl
It was danish people
"Shhhh.... Mother Nature is doing it's thing. Don't interrupt."
respectfully ? :D
@@dookiepost I'm from texas and I wouldn't deny this.
The sheer size and scale of it, this is spectacular!
indeed I hadn't realized how truly massive it was until the lower half actually started to rise out of the water

@@dadislikebutton708 LOL
If you were an insect you would say the same thing about about an ice cube.
I couldn't imagine what an iceberg flipping over would be like. It was a fantastic sight and sound!
Almost looks like an ice castle just growing out of the water so quickly that it flips over. At least until it does flip then its more iceberg. Nature is truly awesome and very, very scary.
To be respected. It's overwhelming at times.
Love this comment
Given that nature can be terrifying you would think that more would be done to protect the planet but no we ll carry on as if there is nothing to worry about
@Mike Jones sadly i agree.
@@juliet7703 if you understood that we live in a fallen, sin-cursed world that is running down then you would direct your fear toward the Creator of all things. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. This world is fading away along with everything it craves but if we do the will of God we will live forever.
Awesome...finally a berg vid where there's no people screaming like little children and you can actually hear it.
Oh my god! Oh my god!!!
Must be the lack of Americans
@@gameclips5734 p
@@gameclips5734 exactly what I thought
Totally agree. We could actually hear Mother Nature.
Video without having anyone scream in the back. Awesome!!!
American female: "Oh my god"
Agree. What a difference a video makes with no hiddious whooping.
People have become waxed cold and intolerant. So Sad !
THOSE were normal people behind the camera.
@@dwightmagnuson4298 yes like 300 times in one second.
I can't believe how strikingly blue that water is. All of the white makes it practically glow as it flipped. Just stunning.
That blue tells you just how large the volume of water is getting thrown into the air. It takes a LOT of water to get that shade of blue
@@nicholashodges201 not true it’s blue because of the white surface of the iceberg, like pool water against the white walls make the pool water look blue
It blends in with the surroundings you would never say it turned around. So amazing
You quite literally have to see it to believe it
It didn't turn around. It flipped over.
Thank you for this breathtaking spectacle. I do also appreciate not having to listen to a bunch of screaming cheering tourists carrying on and distracting the amazing force of nature.
Yes, if only no one was there, this amazing sight could have been left to nature. Not disturbed by man at all. Wait, what? What an asinine comment. Why would anyone cheer, and if they did, why is that a problem? Would the ice block be upset?
@@paulsmith7337 Thesw types of videos are always ruined by loud screaming and cheering otherwise, blocking out the sound of the actual thing happening.
@@paulsmith7337 I'm with Jill on this one, an asinine tourist clapping at nature would have ruined this video
Agreed Jill.
Haha, precisely! I hadn't thought about the nuisances just yet because this was quite phenomenal.
I love how at first he zoomed in at the small one expecting it to turn over, but then he realized something a lot more spectacular is about to happen.
Astonishing how calm the water was while something so momentous is going on. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing footage, truly a once in a lifetime event
No, I contacted the authorities on planet Jupiter and told them about all this.
They weren't impressed.
They're going to send over something to fix all this mess.
Just you wait.
They'll sort it all out.
They said they would keep on deflecting comets away from us so we could survive a bit longer.
I know, right? I thought they would be a mini tsunami but barely a ripple!
The water was chill
That's what I was watching for I wanted to see what kind of waves that would emerge from such displacement
It was not calm lol
the sound is insane. the way the water looks blue is so beautiful as well.
The amount of water it displaced is almost unimaginable. The cleanest water I've ever seen at that. Shits gorgeous 😍
@@jessegivens2167 C'mon, get over yourself.

That is absolutely terrifying and incredible. I imagine if the ancient ancestors had watched that they might've wondered if some great mythical beast was awakening.
Fortunately for them, they did not emit enough CO2 to experience such an event.

It is an amazing video and I wish I was lucky enough to see something so awesome happen.

Lol it was not based off that silly! 😝
I love when these kinds of videos gets recommended to me. No muss and no fuss, just enjoy the video. The colour of the water is so strikingly blue and it’s so satisfying to see it roll over. Also cool with the cavelike openings and just how massive it is underneath the waterline. Thank you for this 😊
That iceberg looked like some kind of gothic cathedral!
That was one of the most dramatic displays of nature I've seen, or heard.
Yeah its a crystalised structure very suspicious that they caught this on film almost like they caused it by severing the left side of it with dynamite
The deafening sound of that berg flipping was incredible. I can’t imagine what it would’ve been like to be standing in front of it! What an historic moment you’ve captured and shared. Thank you so much!
++it’s a bit disturbing that the people present were so impressed by the event they likely forgot they were watching part of the current world beginning its end. 😩

Spectacular! 😲
No loud talking, no screaming ladies, no music. Old school UA-cam. Thank you!
🗯️🎹🎺🎶🔫📸Yeah! woohoo yeah! woohoo yeah!woohoo yeah!
@@swinnburn 😂🎉
My jaw was dropped the entire second half of this video. Watching the bottom flip up and all the loose pieces break away, ending in a formation that matches the rest of the area is so spectacular, so beautiful, and so satisfying to see. Seeing it blend with the landscape at the end is something else.
I know right? The next day different people could go to the same spot and think that berg hasn't moved any more than the others. It was like the ocean knew it wasn't matching perfectly so she flipped it lol. But I suppose nature doesn't care about beauty, it just is 😊
It makes you wonder what process culminated at that moment to cause it to roll. Truly an amazing sight. That magnificent blue water was gorgeous.
My first thought was that the cave at the bottom would be absolutely AMAZING to explore. Than I remembered the title of the video and thought "maybe not but it might be a fun ride." Now after watching the video I realize that going into a iceberg cave is not something I would attempt.
That's very wise.

If you want to see something majestic from nature go vacation up north to the Aurora
Do you have kids? They are amazing
It is pretty cool 🥶
This would be such an incredible overwhelming and humbling thing to experience. Gorgeous.
Yeah, climate change is gorgeous. We’re sooooo f++++d.

One of the craziest things I’ve ever seen! The sound it created for the length of time it created it was insane!!!
I'm not even exaggerating when I say that this is legitimately one of the coolest things I've ever seen on UA-cam.
I have been fortunate enough to watch some fantastic calving in Alaska, but that is on a whole different scale. How lucky those onlookers were to be there right at that moment. Nature is really the best show on earth! Thank you all for sharing.
Glaciers also have that “azure” color. My son and I visited Alaska and chartered a helicopter to land directly onto a glacier. There were azure pools everywhere. The water was so clean and clear you could see down 50-100 ft. We dipped our water bottles into one and refreshed ourselves with some of the cleanest water we ever had.
The irony of your dumb ass getting a helicopter so you can experience pristine nature is likely lost on ya, huh?
@@aaqilian5.085 A one-hour helicopter ride emits 90 kg of CO2, which costs a total of 5$ to offset. Instead of calling Dave a dumbass, how about you just pitch in?

Watching the waves coming to shore really forces the distance and scale on you. Amazing sight.
I expected the wave to be bigger, like a mini-tsunami.
Right? It almost felt like it was in slow motion. Incredible.
Omg thats some stunning footage. Was in a shop the other day and they were selling 50 million year old salt. And it had an exp date of July 2022. So glad they dug it up in time🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Yeah? I saw some pink Himalayan salt advertized as GMO free. Minerals have genes? Didn't know that. But was it organic?
@@hotsauce7709 most don't even know what GMO stands for either lol
@@hotsauce7709 I mean, it _is_ gmo-free. They're just being scummy and capitalizing on keywords.
Hahaha🤦🏼♀️
@@hotsauce7709 Pink Himalayan salt - the same thing you get in a Morton's box for 10X the price. But it is also gluten-free!
Didn't that piece of ice look like a cathedral though? Complete with arched windows and pillars. It was bigger and more awe-inspiring though....
Took the words right out of my mouth...........i wonder the mass in tonnes.....it was like watching Saint Pauls rolling over.
Must be gigantic took forever for the waves to get to the shore yet it looks so small on the video
Very weird how we all had the same thought pattern when it was going over . A sign from the gods ( or it just looked like a cathedral lol ) .
@@richardgraham2303 Well, since cathedrals were built to echo the glorious and awe-inspiring grandiosity of God's creation, this would be just the original version.

Incredible, once the water settles it like nothing ever happened.
Do our lives ever happen?
Water and the ice are always active. Just because you don't see it or hear it doesn't mean it is not constantly transitioning, balancing and reacting.
And once we die it’s like we were never here.
Wow. Never in my whole life have I even heard that icebergs can turn over. This is wild. Can't even imagine what it's like to see in person.
they do ... check for a a footage on youtube of two guys climbing an iceberg, and all o a sudden it rolled over ! scary stuff!
@@youtubekilledtrustedflaggi9274 Not what happens. If they melted they'd be bottom heavy not top. A geologist explained why they flip over in the comment section
I saw it happen in Alaska.... Magnificent example of nature in action.
I don t get this ? How can you not know ? ?
@@Mega-P71 because seawater is warmer than air in iceberg areas, and water conducts heat much better than air, icebergs lose much more mass from their submerged surfaces than the part above water. Note also that icebergs float with most of their mass underwater, and the above surface areas may be insulated by snow, two factors which to contribute to more mass lost underwater than above.
Incredible. I love that there are birds flying in the foreground for constant reference.
WOW! I'm sitting here this morning and UA-cam suggested this video and I couldn't be happier. I don't get to see anything like this in my lifetime and here it is for my pleasure and enjoyment. I was especially blown away by the intense blue as the berg tipped over. And when it rose from the icy waters, it appeared that it had always been upright and like it had fresh fallen snow on it that was falling in a cascading avalanche. Definitely something I treasure and can watch multiple times. Thank you! Thank you!
Amazing. Before I saw this, I never would have even thought how beautiful something that probably happens all the time could be. What a rare treat for the people there to witness. It makes you wonder what all kinds of simple things in nature would be so amazing to see.
Well, the irony is that gobal warming is one of the main cause of this occasion, and imo there's nothing beautiful about it (the global warming).
@@hadifelani Climate hoax nonsense.
@@hadifelani get over it
@@DarthVader1977 elaborate how's that hoax 🤷♂️
Global warming is 100% real and those who say otherwise are pretty dumb imo
WOW! Gorgeous and amazing! Landscape just changes within minutes. Enormous ice castles complete with caverns rising, makes an appearance and then POOF back to something else. How amazing you caught that on film! I would have been over the moon on that one alone. Nature is magnificent! Sometimes, we get to watch.
One of the BEST VIDEOS of Glacier Calving I've ever seen by Far.!!!!
Imagining witnessing this sort of thing 1000 years ago, wondering which gods and beasts are fighting and why. Incredible sight.
That's what came to mind! 100% if I was a few centuries older I'd see this and think it was like some supernatural phenomenon!
I think they would have thought, "it was amazing to see a giant chunk of ice flip over". They weren't stupid, they had the same brains as we do. The Greeks, and the Hindus before them, figured out that the atom existed, even if they couldn't prove it yet.
Arctic seacoast people are familiar with the behaviour of floating ice over a wide range of size. They'd probably be impressed by a big berg roll like this, but wouldn't need a supernatural explanation. Somebody visiting from inland might come up with a supernatural theory, though, and wonder at the locals routinely going out among the bergs in skin boats. They must have powerful magical protection!
Really? Have you ever studied ancient history? Have you ever read any writings from 1,000 years ago? 1,500 years ago? 2,000 years ago?
I don't know where the notion that people 1,000 years ago and more were stupid, dumb, naive, ignorant.
WOW! I know icebergs are prone to calving, but that is just astonishing to see that monster berg topple! The cobalt blue water pushed up was incredibly beautiful -- something I've never seen before.
That absolutely gives me the chills! Just think, that happens all the time when no one is even seeing it.
.. Just amazing to watch!
Agreed. Thanks for a classy capture. What a privilege to see this first hand! And thanks for sharing.
I was leading a tour in Greenland and we were on a boat going back to our ship in the harbour. There was a very small iceberg in the harbour and all the passengers asked to sail close to it. Luckily the person steering the boat said no because just then the berg flipped and if we had been any closer we would have been in the water with casualties. It was very, very scary.
So thrilled that these people are there to witness these amazing occurrences.
I'm guessing they are more thrilled
Thank you for posting this Peter, absolutely awe inspiring. One of the most amazing things i have ever seen.
That's what she said.
We used to sometimes stop at the Portage Glacier on the way down to the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska, and the blue color of the icebergs is truly amazing. You can see a little bit of it in this video. The pure blue comes from all the red color being absorbed, leaving the shorter wavelengths of the blue spectrum to scatter and reflect around inside and around the ice.
I didnt even begin to think this could even happen. Thats absolutely insane.
It's top heavy with snow but the bottom isn't as deep as the above ground section so like a ship it sinks because of its imbalance.
Happens often just not often seen on video.
It will grow again.
@@johnmcleod7347 no it won’t actually. Waters are getting warmer.
@@aaqilian5.085 on short term it will. but climate change is real.
We always had climate change.
This is so basic it melts at the bottom the the heavy top flips lol
That’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.
Pun intended? 😉
It was justing chilling out... :-)
It's one of the coldest things you'll ever see.
I was in Ilulissat in November 2023 and this video is the closest i've seen yet to justifying how incredible that place really is.

Been under water for thousands of years, but when it calves over it turns into powder!

Shout out to the uploader for not throwing trashy music over it
Now that was amazing . I can't stop watching it. Whoever took the video did a great job.
One of the most wonderous scenes in nature I've ever seen! To have been there in person to hear and feel all that, sensory overload!!! And pure joy!
Thank heavens they are quiet. It was amazing to just watch and listen without loud music or people exclaiming constantly.
That was truly astonishing. I have never seen something like this before. 😳
The quality of this video is exceptional 👍👍
I am speechless in wonder that this happened and it was caught on camera. Breathtaking!!!
Makes me wonder, why today? What changed in the iceberg's make-up that made it less buoyant on top? Its very cool, but I just am super curious as to the physics of it happening on a particular day and time.
I thought the ice was supposed to be totally melted 20 years ago.
This was absolutely amazing to see. Thank you, Peter for sharing this with us.
Man, the photos people take here will forever look different from before. What a fascinating record.
I'd never be able to film that, I would just sit down and watch in awe
So beautiful. The blue that comes up is breathtaking.
Yea it looked nice. The color palette has grown bigger n better in softwares these days. If that was natural then O some. Otherwise 🤷🏼♀️
Watching the huge calving on the documentary Chasing Ice literally changed my entire mindset. The awesome force of nature is incredible
Must be terrifying to witness and awe inspiring imagine what the old Norse colonizers would of made of icebergs and the otherworldly beauty of these places
It's would have or would've, not would of, for the love of God.

The utterly unfathomable mass of that thing… sends chills down my spine. Literally nuclear levels of energy from that thing moving.
@@nax4448
If we were to measure the kinetic energy of an iceberg capsizing, specifically that of an iceberg about 1km long (this one looks to be, if I had to make an absolute guess, maybe 0.6 km at its longest point given the distance from the cameras and the height of the vista from the water, as well as the speed of the waves), the energy measured could equal as much as 10 kilotons of TNT, or equivalent to the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima. So not Figuratively, actually. I very much meant Literally here.
I understand the desire to respond to someone with a snarky comment, but perhaps it would be best to be certain you fully understand the comment you're snarking at first.
So big the water level dropped like someone getting out of a bath when its weight came out.... Absolutely breathtaking!
That is the coolest act of nature I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing!
This looks like how the cool side of the pillow feels. So good 😊
Sembrava tutto così tranquillo,invece...questa è la bellezza della natura e di questi posti fantastici 👌👏💯
No matter how many millinea this has occured throughout history it is still amazing to me.
How many times have you seen it ?
This was absolutely worth the four minutes of my life I can never get back. Thanks! (No snark)
That was breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you.
Really does show you how incredibly powerful even the simplest thing in nature can be. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yep, though I feel like too often people exclude everything outside of Earth when they talk about nature, but that is also nature (as long as it wasn't man made). Like how whole solar systems can be destroyed by a supernova, which is also nice to look at from a distance.
At the start of the video, the Ice Mage's staff is already broken. You can see by the fragment of his castle sinking away. I think it's around 1:38 where he is finally defeated.
I was expecting more of a tsunami affect along the shoreline from such a big event!
Water is very deep and reduces the wave.
