- Iceberg breaking up in the Ilulissat icefjord, close to an archaeological site called Sermermiut.
*A quick note - some of the external links to this video have mixed information. To be more precise, this is a large iceberg breaking up, which had already calved from the icecap. The large ones often collect at the end of the fjord, where it is a bit shallower. The NASA image at the end of the video shows this a bit more clearly*

Thanks for turning around and showing us the hillside
When continent sized iceburg breaks and proceeds to roll, camera man takes video of mountain side. Beautiful!
His life is not worth appeasing cowards who feel they are entitled to free content.
A beautiful look of mountain side saving his own butt! I say it's a wonderful raw video!
Wow!! Great photography. Loved how you shook the ca.era & moved it away from every captivating event just as it began to happen.
Tsunamis were coming at the place where he was standing...but that said: NEVER go so close to the coast right there at the icefjord: sometimes the tsunamis actually kill tourists
@@kunstnersjael Sti no excuse to record for 3 more seconds when the iceberg turned upside down!
That’s funny as hell bro.
princess
I kept moving my phone hoping to catch the event but alas it doesn't seem to work that way.
The first time I watched this I was talking out loud, telling you to pan and zoom etc. Now I am just grateful to have seen this raw footage...thank-you. It was smart to get some good ground, that was a massive roll that berg did.
This is the type of person would film first contact with aliens, camera rock steady but when the UFO appears they decide to have an epileptic fit.
Hahahaha! So true!
"Should I film all of this epic once-in-a-lifetime event? Nah, I think I'll film myself walking up the hill."
I was screaming at the screen..... "Turn the camera back to the iceberg. Grass is not interesting"
He just realized that the wave would be big and decided to go higher. The right decision, but I would shoot and climb at the same time.

THANK YOU for not talking while filming!!!!!!
He laughed...why?? Nothing here is laughing matter...
U meen ..."OH My god" "Nooo Fuck"...
Too bad he didnt concentrate on shooting better
Please dont leave your daily job to became cameraman....
Great camera work. And oh yeah....the grassy hillside was *AMAZING!*
So, I wonder what happened with the iceberg?
It went to the bar to get a cold one.
Tsunami, I'd run to
@@cynthiaayers7696: 🤣🤣 Iceberg heads to the bar for a cold one! Love it.🍺
@@cynthiaayers7696 If two broke icebergs walk into a bar, somebody better buy them drinks 🍺
theres another video of this exact same iceberg flipping over, thank goodness, search Ilulissat Icefjord - Large iceberg breaking over
One of the most unsatisfying videos ever.
It was satisfiying to me.
@@elbagrau bitch continue doing stuff that can melt the iceberg
@@oddhooligans9848 wtf u talking about
@@nooyes3136 was probly a climate change attack. Jus some more bullshit, to go with this bullshit video
I totally agree
Wow. That must have really been sumthin. Wish I could have seen it
its not any fun thing
Don't worry, even the cameraman didn't see it properly. 😂
Wow, that's amazing. Thanks for recording and uploading.
Great video, one of the best I've ever watched. Kudos and thank you for letting only the sounds of Nature be heard. Also thanks for sharing. You've got my like!
Thanks so much for this footage, without any music or voices. Just incredible.
Yes! ! It's awesome to hear the rushing water while you can hear the ice loudly cracking as it's dragged across the bottom!
Extreme natural sudden hell
.. We WONT make it.. 3000..global warming.. This Aint incredible watch dear 2045..
Yes the footage of grass as a loud sound happens off camera surely is an amazing spectacle
@@fluffthecloudhi7729 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
missed the shot of a lifetime
@@ghostladydarkling3250 You know the glacier was giving signs that it will break for several minutes if not hours, he could have been standing on higher ground before he started recording it.
@@KateDenthimamai You could be paying him to stand around and get footage for you as well, but you weren't, so what the hell are you complaining about? The level of self-entitlement on the internet is ridiculous.
@@deanroddey2881 But at least the internet isn't polluted by self righteousness and faux outrage 😂
@@oceanecastelnau9821 If anyone saw my original reply to this, I thought this was another thread I was replying to... ignore.
But, anyhoo, yeh, that's basically it. I swear you can post a video of a kitten playing with a ball of yarn and someone will find some reason to be outraged about it.
@@deanroddey2881 *You think he just got there accidentally? Do you know where the Arctic is? He was already there for hours and should've gotten into position.*
Wait until the best part and then point the camera at the sky, brilliant move. Let’s go Brandon!!
Tsunami
I know right worst camera work ever lol
What an awesome display of nature than decided to miss most what would hav been spectacular event caught on camera, blew it man!
if not left the position he might be washed away by the tsunamiwave…
Exactly.
Well..uh...he lived to show us ....thank goodness
Where is common sense now days?? He should've started out on top of the hill!! That would've actually been a better view. 🤦
@@KeyAppyMeganpr1
Are you saying he should have KNOWN the iceberg would break at that moment?
Do you think it has a clock?
Thank you for capturing and sharing this . But missed the closest part .
Coulda walked uphill backwards, just sayin.
Thank you so much for this wonderful video!❤💙🩵
Nice video, we're lucky that you were there to capture this.
Such a massive dynamic event. The breaking and rotating. Truly awesome.
Thank you
When it started flipping because of the new center of mass, the actual size hit me right on the forehead.
Incredible - thank you!! The sound made it so loud, just like I was there (almost).
That must of been frightening. Great video. You caught the moment.
Definitely love the erratic slow mo that made everything better
These are some of the most awesome events on the planet.
The shear massive scale of it and the spectacular display is breathtaking.
It was oddly peaceful to watch 🤷♂️
Massive huh? Yah, towers a Volcano... and a hurricane that spreads through multiple states... and don't get me started about those weak 8.0 earthquakes... and has anybody really been killed from the direct effect of a Tsunami?... and if you won't stand in the path of a tornado, then I just can't trust you... LMFFFAAAOOO definitely nothing close to how massively devastating pretty much anything else besides an iceberg is 😂
Apart from actually missing the break, this is pretty good proof of the 10% ice floating above water and 90% below
5:05
I can see atleast 3 different glacial climate changes here.
Does this mean BigT-Rex was warned about Co2 Emissions aswell??
So sorry you miss the best part! Rule no1: STAY PUT and keep filming when something big is happening.
I do hope you are being sarcastic. Rule nr. 1 should be "do your best not to kill yourself over a video". The wave didn't get to where he was standing before, but it almost did, and he didn't know how far it would go. Better safe than sorry.
The footage is incredible! The amazing power of nature!
I can't even imagine witnessing an event of this magnitude. Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime blessing!
He can't imagine it either.
Thats definitely not a blessing
Perdeu de gravar bem na hora mais legal!!!🤔
So while getting footage of the coolest thing, let's pan the camera away. Good job.
Dude why would you blame him? you would also try to get a little far away from a breaking ICEBERG A BREAKING ICEBERG
Needed to get to higher ground or would of gotten wet
Then keep the camera on the shot and walk backwards
So it completely turn upside down, cool to witness. What an awesome moment for you, thanks for sharing 👍
Truly magical. Thank you so much.
Had a real award winner there, too bad you didn't film the best part!!
He is the guy that also messes up on a porn shoot!
When the new Titanic ran into it?
Ok, You have some of your own Alaska videos, you are not just a troll. I think they were smart moving when they saw the size of that berg. Tripod would have been good yes, but I know what it feels like to want to capture the action and getting out of it.
Absolutely amazing. I actually held my breath at several points while watching this. I assume this must truly be the catch of a lifetime. Thank you for sharing such a breathtaking moment.
Thanks for not playing music background, I was able to hear the powerful sound of water
Fantastic Video! Good job, thanks, amazing. Greetings from Germany!
I was waiting for the squirrel from Ice Age to come running out screaming across the iceburg while holding his acorn
th-cam.com/video/qXyL4vM8iLo/w-d-xo.html
I came to see an iceberg breaking, but ended up with this
Spectacular event! Lucky to catch it, and the sound added so much.
Nice view of the hills! Thanx
Cannot believe he turned the camera right at the most epic moment (as it was flipping)?…That iceberg is touching bottom.
Glad someone was there to capture this amazing event.
A few people were. Hard to tell how massive it was until I watched someone else's that showed the whole thing from a different angle. So crazy.
What a fantastic opportunity and even more amazingly, your goat managed to record pats of it.
I love these videos thanks man
Thank you for sharing this.
Mother nature at her best. Thank you for sharing this amazing footage with the world. In awe of her beauty. 🙏
@@etiennenel4494 I agree 100%. But, at the end we will be the losers in the process the innocent and beautiful animals will be affected. Greed is the basic cause. 🙏
Incredible footage and incredible timing being there to witness that and get it on camera.
Hoffmeester
LOLOLOL
Absolutely breathtaking!
wow great filming just at the most interesting part you pull away and show a shot of dead grass on the hillside. congrats!!
I just cant get enough of the cracking and the sound of thunder as it moves!
If you have ever been on a frozen lake, when the ice cracks it bounces of the sides of the mountains and all around and it sounds very similar. Obviously this would make a lot more, but yes, very cool sounds.
Absolutely stunning footage!
That was absolutely amazing I can not thank you enough
Guts to you for filming this. I would be scared because that iceberg is huge
Second biggest one I ever saw on video! The booms and the sheer scope of it must be scary in person. You don't realize how insignificant you are until you see 50 million tons of ice flip over in front of you! :)
How did you actually manage to miss the break!?
I imagine he had to get the hell outta there
fuck off. my guy wanted to live. you're probably on a couch and he's out there getting the footage of a lifetime.
@@Peter-zg3em u r so right
I would better ask how did the camera person was able to suck at recording
Great question. What a fool whomever was filming.
I love the 'oh I gotta fuck off out of here' vibe. And the footage of course. Thanks.
Holly cow that's loud. Always wondered what it would sound like. Great video. My ex old lady fell in a public pool once and sent a wave that big. Took the local fire department all day to rescue the victims out of the trees.
The camera man: *Misses the large iceberg breaking*
Everyone: So you have chosen death
@@DefundTheFringes its an ip tracker
How are you literally everywhere
🤣
Bro your literally everywhere
Excellent footage of walking uphill. Action packed.
Best footage Ive ever seen. Looking forward to the 8K drone shot next! xD
Iceberg breaking sound scary & terrifying. its like a big land is moving.
One of the best vids I've seen of such events. AWESOME!
TH-cam new guidelines:
Shake camera when the audience is excited
Uploader: yes
We love to watch ice melt too! Great video!! ❤❤
Amazing! Great job on the video and smart move ascending to higher ground. Don't want those ice cold waves pull you in the punishing sea.
Yeah that meter and a half walk saved his life
You blew it!!!!!!!
Just sit and watch. You move at the most exciting point.
That's not something you see everyday!! Beautiful to watch. You were very lucky to witness that. Thanks.☺
I've seen videos of people hiking in tall grass many times... .
If this video was shot in a better way then it would be more satisfying and terrifying than any other videos👍😌
Btw you tried your level best🤩
The nature and the people of Greenland are amazing ....greetings from Norway
Right place at the right time very nice capture of nature. Amazing surge of water it caused go thing you had safer ground to retreat to. Nice video.
Great Shot. Thank You for letting us see what's been going on for thousands of years. And to imagine that is Fresh Water!! I didn't even imagine it can travel so far as well. Great Video, good work.
OMG the power of nature is endless ! Scary and beautiful at the same time.
Oh! And thank you for your
video. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!! Thanks for sharing this video. For me, what I live in the tropics, this is fabuluos, only in the tells or fantastic stories of travelers. The magnitude of the ice mountains, moving, turning are stunning. Very good.
I wish people would remember to always keep their eminent demise in focus while they run for their lives.
I know right?? People these days, lol!!!
Bwah-hahaha!!
Hardly looked like they were in danger. Did we watch the same video? The person filming proceeds to film the boring iceberg that's doing nothing when they returned focus. Pretty disappointing.
ArtofAngels. Past your bedtime there sport? Gettin' a little cranky?Awww Precious, did you miss your nap today?....UH OH! What's that smell? Does somebody have a poopy diaper??? Better go find mommy.......HONEY!!!!
The eminent demise has already occurred in public education. Hail the Church of Global Warming!
Great footage!
Awesome recording! The breaking point and the tipping point! I thought that up before my coffee is even done perking,are you proud of me?
Incredible footage. Thank you for the post.
I love the birds flying around it so completely oblivious .
Wow. That was impressive!
Cool video, thanks :)
That was epic.
Thank you
Umazeging
how on motherfucking earth this can be epic? its scary, this is climate change in work, how can you say that the result of human race destroying the planet is epic? how inbred are you?

if you've never experienced something like that it's difficult to judge how big that wave is going to be or how far it will travel. turning in and running up the hill was the prudent thing to do. many people have perished due to tsunamis caused by things like land slides
Because their too stupid to think ahead thats why. Theres a saying in mountaineering, "Beware of the person that is an expert at getting out of trouble". Just assess the situation ahead of time, take the requisite precautions, then take action. Its a simple concept.
This is a perfect example of effects of global warming. It is hard to picture raising sea levels till you see this. All that ice towering above the ice melting and surging inland in wave after wave.
He could have left the camera where it was so at least we could see it happen, or at least go up gill while pointing the camera at the action.
@@BarnMouse LOL!
WOW!
You really drink the Kool-aid!
@@TheDVDwr
When is your iceberg mountain crashing video getting released you entitled prick?
Fascinating! I would like to have had an explanation of the picture at the end. Thank you
That is the biggest iceberg roll I have ever seen on film. That is like a mountain rolling over.
The noise it makes , it's like the end of the word 😱😱😬😬😬😬
gerard akoun what word?
gerard akoun word
che2016 a free America for all . WORLD.
gerard akoun That is indeed the end of the human race you hear.
You mean, end of your sentence?
I appreciate that the person recording did not talk over the event!
PS: I had no idea icebergs could move that fast. You always imagine them being really slow 🤔
nor did he record it.
You have to have Morgan Freeman for the voice for something this epic
And I appreciate, that there is no silly "music" in the background.
Spectacular ! Video does not do it justice.
Pretty cool to watch! Mother nature is awesome.
How the fuck do you turn the camera away from that!??!?!
HA! When you know that thing out there is COMING FOR YOU NEXT! THAT'S HOW!
nice comment bro,
you know he turned it away because he had to run to higher ground since the iceberg sent a wave of water his way right?
he was too late to move to higher ground! he should've moved while the breakup moved not during the rolled up...and we missed the wave that happened during the rolled up.
Safety first.
Damn, imagine the weight of that chunk of ice!!! Nature is truly spectacular.
That was awesome to witness. Love to see powerful natural forces at work. Thanks for the video. Wonder why/how someone happened to be there at the very moment this event took place?
Great ice rock vid.
Absolutely amazing.
Patrick B Das Video ist atemberaubend, aber für die Umwelt traurig.
camera person-“you had 1 job”!!!!
🤣
It’s amazing,spectacular
I've seen several of these iceberg videos and I'm amazed how many birds show up after the collapse. It's like the iceberg is stirring up the fish or food in the water.
Great footage mate. One of the best Glazier break off I've ever seen.
FuckGodism err, that's "glacier". A glazier installs windows😊
There's nothing great about this event
Anwar Robertson yeah there is
Waa
I imagine this type of event in such close proximity makes one feel very small and fragile !
Oh my good... amazing
Never thought it would be as big and as fast
