Very professional and very ethical something rare these days!.I have respect for your work I'm also a fan.
Another reason I like your videos, you explain what is happening, then reshow it again without having a laugh track or a baby making noises. Then after the event you give us a history. They are the perfect length. Thank you
Agree with you Shelley...
This is about the only page where I click the likes and follow...
Thank you for sharing.. blessings to all..
*"then reshow it again without having a laugh track or a baby making noises."*
I'm still laughing at the accuracy and hilarity of that statement. 😆
What BS.
Antarctica has grown over the last 20 years. The so called global warming crap stopped in 1998. We warm back up in 2030.
And one more thing... If we in Australia didn't have this climate, you wouldn't have much fruit...
Think about it.
@@readie10145
You and I know that much of this issue, has been politicized. Even though parts of the topic are real...
However, global warming and icing is very much part of the planet. It has been for at least few million years.
Just because we (current humans) can't show it or prove it... doesn't mean it hasn't taken place.
I know where I get my information... but do they ??

Well said👍
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.
冰山倒塌這不是好事！！天氣會越來越熱啊！
@@user-fh7fv3jo4q Some calving is natural, though.
@@4WingedAngels I recall hearing the ice from a glacier cracking clear up the valley from where I was. Sounded like a shotgun firing.
I pass but thank you 😊
..or the YUKON & CANADIAN ARCTIC THAT WE OWN!
Great video. Those icebergs coming out of the water are "straight out of a sci-fi movie". Incredible.
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!
it s Viedma Glaciar, and belong to the Southern Patagonian Ice field.
*_funny video, I LIKE YOU, I LOVE YOU_* 😍😆😀😘

Good job to the people in video 4 for recognizing the danger immediately and not just stopping to stare. Those seconds clearly counted there 😳
@Blind Freddy exactly
My heart began to beat faster. At first they were not moving fast enough for me. 21123
The whistling in the video is a guide
Dude this is some of the best storytelling on you tube! Usually people just show a short clip then talk nonsense. You actually let us experience the full clip then explain everything afterward. Sir you are good at what you do.
Lmao was about to say the same thing. Amazing voice transitions.
no idea what you guys are smoking, he explains the whole clip and even shows the end and then plays it
ps...what time will you be back tonite.? mum.
Yeah but its not good information.
#2 he says the Columbia Glacier in Alaska is part of the Columbia icefield in Alberta.
They're thousands of km away.
❤
You've got to love technology for some things. Its amazing to be able to watch this in such detail. Its really inspiring in a way and makes me want to see one at some point in my life. Just incredible
But how can it be growing? Shouldn't it be melting? Oh no!
Many years ago, a friend and I went in a kayak rather close (probably too close) to one of the tidewater glaciers in Glacier Bay Nat. Park in Alaska. Had I seen this video before that, we might stayed a bit farther away.
4:50 perfect visual for anyone who can't understand how tsunamis get bigger with each following wave
I never get tired of how beautifully blue glacier ice be...
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.
That was the best footage of calving glaciers I have ever seen.
Absolutely amazing, I hope I could visit Patagonia and Antarctica soon. At 0:10, I am pretty sure it is at Franz Joseph Glazier in amazing New Zealand, the home of 2 out of 3 glaciers in the world that you could climb and walk on it. I have been there twice, climbing ~10 years ago and last year with heli (now climbing is banned, only heli and then drop us off there and walking)
I went there 30 yrs ago, its getting smaller every year.
Thank you for this great video! I could never imagine such movement, so beautiful and impacting.
Professional voice over! The right tempo. Very well understandable. (also for non-native-speakers)
Excellent mix of commentary, info and the actual footage. Not for one second was I distracted by anything.
You were right about the glacier that’s located south for Ilulissat, Sermeq Kujalleq, but the video you were using is the one that is located 80km north for Ilulissat and it’s called Eqip Sermia (Eqi glacier). 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.
There are not enough words to describe the epic events I just watched!!! TH-cam rules! I can pretty much go anywhere on the planet and look around. Thanx for posting!!!
I've been to Southern Patagonia and it is hard to appreciate the scale from videos, these blocks of ice aren't the size of houses, they're the size of 15 storey apartment buildings, the sound, like artillery, is also amazing.
At 3:25, 5,000 square miles is actually almost 13,000 square kilometers since squaring the 1.609 conversion is about 2.59, and 2.59 time 5,000 is 12,950.
Wow! The first collapse shown in this video was spectacular, frightening in person, I would imagine! But that beautiful blue ice, incredible?
John Henni
I believe the blue in the glaciers means the thousands if not millions of years that the ice has been accumulating to include oxygen, debris and dust trapped into the ice...
Incredible sights indeed
That first one was beautiful, looked like big blue whales surfacing.
So what?
My mind is always blown when you see the underneath come to the surface, so huge and monumentally impressive!🤯👌
Life is pretty cool between ice ages! Glad we are still coming out of one instead of going into one! Awesome video! Not going to lie, I am so jealous of the people who were there when this happened.
Dangerously mesmerizing! WoW the power of nature
Great vid, top level production with amazing footage
Great video, thanks. Someone else might have commented that in the Antarctica carving, the male voice was probably not telling the tourist to sit down for security reasons, but rather because the tourist was blocking the view of other tourists!
Thank you for your intelligent, thoughtful and interesting video of glaciers and their calving. (You managed to avoid, what some video-makers resort to which includes, stupid screen shots of unrelated people, making shocked and surprised facial expressions, an exaggerated tone of voice which is distracting, annoying and unnecessary, and irrelevant comments that add nothing to the viewers' knowledge or information.) You also managed to be both informative and entertaining! Well done!
But he lied about calving being the result of warming.
I just love it when the almost jade like colours come rising out of the ocean 🌊
watching this video I not only got to learn about some incredible Glaciers, but I also learned a new word. I didn't know that "calving" was the word for when the glacier breaks apart like they did in the video. thank you for the new knowledge
Calving is what happens when a growing glacier flows far enough for the unsupported end to be unable to support its own weight. It breaks off. This happens over and over as the glacier advances.
And it's not caused by carbon dioxide or human activity. It's how ice flows from higher up as a river, only much slower
Amazing how mother nature acts and reacts. Impressive videos.
I watch many videos like this, you are the only one who has mentioned the Columbia icefield and how far it has retreated. I saw it in 1979 on Hwy 11 in western Alberta, it was only a mile away from the Hwy. I didn't see it again till the late 90's and you could hardly see the Glacier from the same spot! As much as watching icefields calving is awesome to watch, we need to realize it is changing our world at the same time!
You mean highway 93. Hwy 11 is a long ways from the Columbia Icefield.
The context note is bullshit… Man isn’t the main reason. One volcano can do more than we’ve done in 100 years. And it happens every day. If we didn’t have global warming, we would be in an Ice Age from 14,000 years ago.
Climate is global, not local. Don't get fooled by local events.
I have the same concerns as you. The calving is extraordinary and beautiful but also sad because our ice fields (I think that's what they're called) are shrinking. God Bless you and have a beautiful evening.
So majestic and scary at the same time. Gives me great anxiety when a huge one rolls over
Echos of Submechanophobia with a dash of Megalophobia for me😬
This is amazing. We saw some small ones on our trip to Alaska. Breathtaking video
That was brilliant. What a document. Thank you for your excellence.
The destructive forces of nature are both beautiful, captivating but could also be devastating.
The blue ice is so beautiful
Never too many words from Adele, cause every word is a character of herself and a state of wisdom! She is the role model of the new generation and every woman! Bravo 🎉🎉🎉🙏🙏🙏
i loved this video! i had the opportunity to see the gaciers collaps in argentina, one of the most incredible moments of my entire life. I definitely i want to see more and more...
At 2:30...
That wind though....🥶
8:36 just gives me chills at how FAST nature moves sometimes 😰
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.
Thank you for taking such a valuable video to places we would never be able to see 😘
Wow, what a great reply yes yes the video put me there I even became cold
I greatly enjoyed and found this video very informative. Though there was one error while talking about the Columbia Glacier. There are two Columbia Glaciers that the narration indicated were the same one. 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.
Thank you! I came here to say this. I live in Alberta, not that far from the Columbia Icefield, but very, VERY far away from Alaska and the ocean where the Columbia Glacier was filmed. 😉
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.
@@harrymills2770 This global warming scam is just perfect for them...to just the normal person this seems so scary. We seem to know how things work, when we have only been on this planet for a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of it's total age.
P
Wow! Massive damage!!! Beautiful!!!
Not damage, natural, it's a slow river of ice that will always end in calving. Unless the planet gets colder, and it is.
Absolutely amazing ! Thank you for sharing!
The voice of the narrator is beautiful, such a relief from the ones that try to be overly dramatic.
I know I can't quite wrap my head around how massive these events are. I've been to some glaciers and hiked some, but many are on an incomprehensible scale. Fascinating shit
Imagine you’re flying a helicopter over a glacier and a town sized glacier shoots out of the water and takes you out
its common seeing these sort of videos be saturated with nonsense and then they never get to the real juice, thank you for giving us facts and showing the full clip unedited.
I was surprised at how dirty and ragged the surface of a glacier was when we landed on one from a helicopter in Alaska, yet how beautifully clear & blue the ice was below the surface. Watching the Columbia Glacier calve was something I will always remember, including the loud thunder-like sound as it happened.

For once a narrator that knows how to do it. No corny humor that inevitably falls flat, no patting on the back, no "I've got so many questions about...." as if they are soooo important. No, you just tell the tale and then get out of the way. This is narration as it should be done. An accompaniment to the video, a support structure. Thank you for doing it right.
When the ice comes up out of the water it's like a giant monster coming up.
Like being in a giant glass of water with ice cubes.
Beautiful and amazing planet, and every time I see that great Antarctic ice wall @13:36 I can't help myself not thinking about Admiral Richard E. Byrd
💯 and the land beyond "Antartica" they may be possible hiding...
The flipping of the first one was spectacular!
It's extremely hard to get any scale in these videos. Not in underworld's video but the videos that the people take while they are there. I appreciate you making the videos underworld
you should go stand next to the glacier so we can understand the scale
The active glacier in Greenland is also the source of the iceberg that sank the Titanic.
You missed the single largest calving that was caught on camera, it made the iceberg that was named Godzilla and was larger than the State of Rhode Island.
Mighty impressive stuff.
WOW! Beautiful when they roll over and the blue ice becomes visible.
GREAT video. Stunning visuals, interesting facts, and thoughtful narration without unnecessary drama.
Edit: Where is that place at 15:55 timestamp?
The guy in the boat was VERY LUCKY that his boat didn’t get destroyed!😮
you mean hes lucky he didnt die? who cares about a boat!
I was caught in one of those waves when doing field work in Svalbard. We nearly lost one of our boats. It was scary.
EXCELLENT VIDEO ...really good camera work and presentation, not too much talking and not much screaming lol
I love the two or three people in the first clip that aren't recording and just living in the moment
I consider myself lucky to even get onto the Columbian Icefield. It was a lifetime memory of walking on it and even seeing people go inside it. It was also a crazy experience drinking the pure glacial water. God knows how long that sight is going to exist.
the Columbian Icefield in Alberta and the Columbian Glacier in Alaska are two different places...he made a mistake
I wonder how many dinosaur bones are under water.
All the ones that are dead
@@mercurysimple3850some died on land so no
They'd erode away quickly before showing.
……never seen ice go that shade of blue before……. Beautiful
Your presentation was awesome thanks for sharing, enjoyed it very much.
Sup ur channel is so good
It cracks me up, people spend all their time recording and taking pictures instead of actually marveling at the moment.
You know you can do both right? Go touch grass.
#1 was great but #2 absolutely amazing like watching a mountain being formed in seconds spectacular
The Portage Glacier, East of Anchorage, Alaska, will leave large chunks of ice at the elbow of Turn Again Arm. We used one 1 cubic chunk that we found on the shore in our ice box to set our fish on. It did not melt for over 2 weeks.
Awesome stuff ! Amazing to think this planet has gone through this a few times before humans were ever a thing .
Absolutely! Many think the earth is failing because rising CO2 is causing a warm spell in earth's history and melting the glaciers. The ice has serious amounts of stored oxygen that the atmosphere needs to rebalance. This cycle may not happen in our average 80 year life span, but the earth survived its own birth. Nothing we humans can do to destroy it. The use of fossil fuels has lasted long enough for us to develop affordable and viable solar power that does not produce CO2. And since the sun's energy comes to us free of charge, it's right up there with wind and hydro power.
@@willrobb5577 - humans don't care that they are harming mother earth/nature, themselves, and each other.
@@tanyalake9152 Mother nature doesn't care either. Mother nature has totally destroyed this planet several times over, hundreds and millions of years before humans ever existed. Imagine that! A cycle that has existed since the dawn of time and no human ever had a hand in that happening. Seems no one wants to acknowledge that and take the short bus route to it's all humans fault. Sounds like a way to get billions of dollars for green initiatives that will have absolutely zero impact n the outcome of what mother nature will decide!
@@willrobb5577 it just happened. You saw the videos.
Are you cancer?
And how do you know that?
That ice looks like a huge popsicle
Its like watching a mythical behemoth rising from the depths ... Truly breathtaking
I love the history portion of your videos
Man i miss Alaska!!! I was stationed in Anchorage for three years and loved ever bit of it!!!
That was truly awesome
The climate Still isn’t as warm as it was before the Little Ice Age. In Greenland, Viking settlements are still being uncovered as the ice melts and retreats. I enjoyed your video.
I dig the narration and voice over. Very professional.
0.09: crevasses are cracks in a glacier not valleys carved by glaciers. Great footage of calvings.
Definition 1: a deep open crack, especially one in a glacier.
Definition 2: a breach in the embankment of a river or canal
Maybe he meant definition 2?
Beautiful yet so very sad at the same time. I am amazed at how far they come back up out of the water.
Why is so "so very sad"?
@@jimmayors2315 The glacier outbreaks are caused by the increasing global warming. And as majectic it looks in the video, this is something very scary and a major concern for climate change
@@shalinisingh4250 you are aware that all of Norway's landscape, fjords upon majestic fjords, was carved out by glaciers long before your young self was born, right?
@@shalinisingh4250 th-cam.com/video/EGVlMN4plT0/w-d-xo.html&t
Sad…. I’m thankful that the glacier stops shy of putting Miami under 200 feet of ice. That makes me happy.
wow, that was a huge one in the beginning !!!
I've never seen a thing like this in person. But I have had the experience of looking at a thing and not being able to imagine I'm really seeing it. It's gotta be like that. Wow.
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.
The problem is he started talking about the Columbia glacier in Alaska (which is correct), then somehow finished by talking about the Icefields in Alberta……
Apparently there are TWO glaciers named Columbia - this one, part of the Columbia Ice Field in Alaska, and another one which is indeed part of both Banff and Jasper National Parks in Canada.
I admit I was taken aback as well when he started talking about Banff .... lol ...
Hopefully he will pull it and make a change.
I noticed it to. I watch these types of videos regularly and it seems like a lot of these TH-cam video guys that put together these educational videos are filled with a lot of incorrect information.
@@spenceisthebest1 Truer words have never been spoken! These guys are falling into the trap of getting their hypothesis' and facts mixed up. There's a lot of that going on nowadays.
Utterly amazing! And terrifying
That's the best way to watch calving with the sound and no oohs and ahhs from big mouth tourists
How Awesome it would be to see underwater footage depending visibility. Underwater drone to record.
How deep is the water from surface and also the space between bottom of ice shelf and floor?
Thank you in advance.
Just a reminder to some of the people leaving comments here: The Glaciers have been melting and receding since the last ice age ended 11,500 years ago.
The glaciers did advance world wide during the little ice age.
Jack Pontiac, try not to reason with stupidity. They have been brainwashed a long time ago.
Not at the rate of the last 60 years. Look at the actual data, its happening too fast now, but until it catches up to you, its just fake news.
@@MagikFingers420 OH, so your telling me someone was out there measuring the melting/receding rate for the last 11,000+ years. I guess I will have to look for that "actual data".
@@jackpontiac9409 seriously do some research before sounding so incompetent, there is countless data, numerous aerial photos dating back to the late 30s and 40s showing the receeding decline in the ice caps during that duration. Wtf are u even talking about measuring water or something, lol. There are countless mountains that acquire snow caps in the winter and then during the other 3 seasons the snow melts and travels downward to thousands upon thousands of villages bc this is the only source of drinking water available, and over the last few decades alone the snow is receeding and receeding every year, 1 example is the Andes Mountains. Wiping out all kinds of species of fish, mammals, animals, insects, etc... in Alaska the glaciers are melting so fast that polar bears are about to become extinct due to lack of hunting ground bc they hunt on ice sheets and they are disappearing, actually nature is trying to force them to mate with North American bears aka black bears just to survive which has never been seen before(nature is resilient). They have islands that are disappearing bc the water has risen so much that the island is going under water, 1 example is the Maldives. Bro stop acting like bc u heard somewhere caps have been melting & u think everything about global warming is now a scam or something. Yes a shit load melts every year, duh! Difference is it freezes right back in the winter months, but every year they get less and less freezing back. Do u not know once this fully happens the magnetic poles could reverse and shift causing nothing but natural disasters around the globe, also the sea level would rise so much we would lose half the land under water. Im not sure if ur one of those extremely close minded far right wing Trump supporters that you believe shit he spats out or if you incompetent or just trying to sound smart and failed. I could keep giving example after example of effects caused by the planet warming, but ive done enough to point out the truth. Just go online and google aerial photos of practically anywhere on earth where they have pictures dating back over 50+ years and see the difference weve caused. The earth is always changing but not normally this fast without natural disasters or natural phenomenons causing rapid change or obviously human manipulation, other than that it takes thousands of years to change.
Imagine the things that will wash ashore when the ice continues to melt and mix with oceans. That ice holds actual treasures from thousands of years ago....
It is not melting it is breaking off because it grows out too far to support its own weight. The bergs will melt as they move around the oceans. This is normal.
Lolllllls. Maybe.
Ut is correct, and there's also viruses that died off long ago but will thaw and return. It's cyclical and has zero to do with humans.
The content in this video is absolutely breathtakingly amazing for sure. Could you please explain your reasoning to name your channel the way you did ???
Thank you
Nice video 👍
I never realized that ice could look like the same color as the sky.
I've never had a video make me feel sea sick, but the weird warble in the last video definitely had me
And these glaciers were formed how and when? I know but I think its best for people to do their own research on this subject. A totally amazing video.
people should do their own research, and i dont mean reading books or going to college. they should be drilling their own core samples and testing them in their own laboratories
A lot of these remind me of giant whales breaching.
I wonder how much gold is under water where those ice sheets break off? I imagine all kinds of bones and old hunting tools
There's something kind of eerie about large glaciers falling lol
Impresionante ! Espectacular! Único!
El impacto es asombroso ! Excelente, gracias !!!
The earth goes through cycles... warm weather... ice age, etc. great video!
Exactly!
Yup this is the 6th cycle… the 6th mass extinction that is
I don't think anyone has ever disputed that, it's been common knowledge for at least a century or two.
Kudos for making a creditable attempt at the place names. Were that all content makers here so scrupulous.
