Huge Calving!!! The video was taken at Kenai Fjord, Aialik Glacier. It was taken with an iPhone.
Thank you for giving us 500,000 + views! You guys are awesome!

"Best ever" definitely an overstatement, but is still fascinating to view this process.
I love how we're GOAT-debating glacier calvings here
I don't know how old the glacier is. It's one of the wonders of the world. One of the signs of God's power. It's amazing, Masha Allah.
@@YeeSoest What debate? The biggest one wins. This one is not a winner.
maybe not to us, those sitting at home watching on YT, but to those that spent the time and money to go see this in person, it will always be their ''best ever''
Pretty sure it's a figure of speech lmfao
Reminds me, to never be part of a tour group when exploring something cool.
IGAZA VAN, RÉMES EZ A TÖMEG-TURIZMUS....🥶
Cool calving... but "best ever" is definitely clickbait.
I wish I could find the footage of Garret Macnamarra, and Kealli Mamala surfing the waves from a much larger calving. Ppl forget to title videos as, "best IVE ever seen". Instead of flat out best ever. They don't realize that just because it happened while they were there, and they've never seen it before, that the one they saw was the best ever. Lol
@@redeyestones3738 , It was filmed at child’s glacier outside of Cordova Alaska on the copper river.
100%
@@troyottosen8722 which? This one? Or the good one?
I have been out to that spot many times, that’s one of the best tidewater glacier calving you will ever see. Only place close to this much calving is Columbia glacier outside of Valdez, and South Sawyer just south of Juneau.👍
2:47 Almost looks like a perfect circle. Amazing.
My first thought was "tunnel".
……ice cave……
I was on that boat. Tried to show this guy how to hold a camera, but he wouldn't listen. All good.
Thanks for trying . Some people won’t be told .Not the best calving ever actually , but always interesting
@@lindacarruthers3423, so you just take it upon yourself to try and correct people because they're not doing it your way.
@@okiesailor5417 No. not generally.These days I have realized the need to manage my remarks more kindly .No excuses here for rudeness.But at that time being new to the internet ,being a late starter with this form of communication,I was certainly heavy handed and am sorry for it.There is so much meanness possible with being invisible allowing the comments to be unfiltered by the usual social constraints.Having become very aware of this ,I try to temper my remarks with kindness,or at least refrain from rudeness.
"Nah, we'll be fine, this boats huge." - spoken by at least one person on the Titanic
why did titanic have to be brought into this ffs
@@graememcfee23 I know. It's not like anyone would think of that while watching icebergs and hearing someone say, "Nah. We'll be fine. This boat's huge." Totally off-base.
@@azimuth361 🤣🤣🤣
Graeme McFee ….cuz it hit an iceberg….and sank. There’s a movie about it too. Check it out….ffs.
@@metricdeep8856 😂🤣😂🤣
Takes my breath away 😲😲 beautiful in its own right!! 🤯💖👍 WOW!!
"It's because the sun is hittin that one spot". Lmao. Ok, keep telling yourself that.
yeah it is exactly because of that
*"The Sun's Doing It!! We can't do anything."* Ultimate Idiocy.
Best clickbait title ever!
3:21 “it’s because the sun is hitting that 1 spot”. 😂 heard it all now 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Not too educated evidently.
We need more uploads of recent ones. I think I've watched them all. I love watching iceberg calving! Absolutely fabulous! So wish I could have seen it in person before I got old and sick.
Better late than never!!!
They are fascinating to watch but the amount of calving that is occurring is not a good thing. The rate at which ice is being lost is terrifying
A glacier calving tour is definitely on my bucket list.
Yeah -Truly Something to cheer Dick’s. Too bad your boat wasn’t swamped out
Great footage! We were there two weeks ago at Kenai Fjords and didn’t see as much activity but was still amazing!
I could watch videos like this for hours...oh wait, I have been! Lol
I was in Alaska and watched a similar display of nature. Ours calved one gigantic spear like section (Naturalist said it was equal to a building with many stories), and she kept yelling “keep watching” until the thing came shooting back up above the water and bobbed around, sending a good sized wave to seriously rock our boat! One of the most thrilling experiences of my life. Thanks for sharing yours.
After I read your comment, YT auto populated a video, 5 monster glacier calving and so I clicked because of your comment, and wow, it was amazing, exactly as you described. Thanks for sharing that. kzhead.info/sun/q7B_h7pom2Vjl2g/bejne.html
I waited...and waited and waited...then the clip ended. Where was the best glacier calving ever?
Indeed - all very tame. Vinn&Tiff Szym - a couple of hints. Don't zoom in. Viewers miss what else is going on, how the bit of calving you're showing close-up fits in to the pattern. Next, viewers are not all that interested in calm water taking up all the foreground. If there's a decent size wave, show that, but not what takes up much of the frame here.
The shame is the Earth's warming is now entertainment. I was fortunate to drink from a glacier. Something my grandchildren will never do. If you want entertainment go watch the fires in California
@@brianbarefoot6574 This glacier is calving. Calving is what _advancing_ glaciers do. Not that you would know that.
@@ut000bs Calving is simply the term for a glacier losing ice. It's not necessary that the glacier is advancing. The base of the glacier either needs to be renewed or fractured. The main cause is due to the weight of all the ice behind the terminal end applying pressure to try and push it forward (not that it's necessarily _moving_ forward). In the case of this video, as the sea melts the bottom of this end, the top is left unsupported and eventually snaps off. The other form of calving involves buoyant forces snapping the ice from the bottom, underwater end, of the glacier. Now, if less calved off than what was pushed forward (land or water), then the glacier has advanced, else it's receded.
@@zecuse I have slept many nights on and around glaciers. You could say I have a PhD in glaciers.
Great! I was watching my paint dry at the same time..
That was At Kenai Fjords at Ailalik glacier. I am a crew member on those trips, daily. That epic!👍
Thanks for posting that! It looked like Ailalik. I went there in 2017, and it looked familiar. I agree, that was epic!
I was on a trip day after our 8.2 earthquake here in Alaska, same glacier was calving huge due to the quake, hard to describe!😉
These are so cool to watch. More of these videos please. Nature is fun to watch sometimes.
Yeah, man. It’s so fun to watch the earth die. Wooo Hooo! YEAH!
@@62Cristoforo wow jyst shut up and let people enjoy the beauty before its gone. Why even comment snarky remarks? Grow tf up plz, you must be a child
Still waiting for it. Whatever IT actually is.
Amazing! Like the glacier is a living thing...
Saw the same glacier less than a month later - pretty neat to see!
Imagine these people when they watch fireworks.
oooOOOoooOOOoooOOOooohhhhh lool 😭😭😂😂😂😂
I'd rather not.
This is how I am 😅 I can't help it! Life just has so many amazing miracles: natural, man-made, divine...
"It's all because the suns hitting that one spot." 🤣👌 How many different ways you can say, "Whoa!" Video. 👍
Thats awesome ! Thanks for sharing this.
😄😄😄
"It's because the sun is hitting that one spot". Tell that to Greta :)
HOW DARE YOU
🤬😤😩😫
Blah blah blah 😑 !!!
Just a natural non AlGore swindle event
It’s more of a pleasure watching it with the commentary turned right down. Oh Wooow indeed.
"We'll be fine. This boat is huge" Sounds like what someone on the Titanic said about icebergs
Best to watch with the sound off😮😆
At least watching at 2x doesn’t take too much of your life away! yes keep sound off!!!
That "best calving ever" was one giant YAAAWN
"No, we'll be fine, this boat's huge" - John Jacob Astor, 1912, Grand Banks
Didn’t someone on the titanic say that, too?
@@janewest3717 🤦♂️
@@janewest3717 Yup, J.J. Astor might have said it.... *on* the Titanic.
I liked all the Faces in the ice! Counted about 6! Great effects!! Even some legs and feet, lotsa fun! Wheeee!🎉🎊💯💢💥😊💎‼️😂🤣
That's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
years ago saw the whole front fall off of the glacier, totally rocked the cruiseship
Aah , beautiful display Summer on its way .
Looks more like crumbling than calving.
"Wait for it" is your clue that it's a click bait BS video.
I make bigger waves in my bath tub.
I'm curious why half the video is half water. I thought the glacier was the point here.
"We'll be fine. This boat's huge." J. Bruce Ismay ova here, amirite?! 😄
4:36 of time I will never get back.
You will never get any time of you life back. Nobody will.
You forgot to mention how hilariously funny this video is.
I must’ve been in the bathroom when the “best ever” was onscreen. damn
Watching this on video looks really cool but to see it in real time is amazing,
Just a couple of ice cubes in a glass of MD 20 20, magnified. I've seen that many times looking in my wine glass.
You owe me 4 minutes and 36 second of lifetime please.
"Well be fine, I'm the cameraman"
To anyone with a video camera: KEEP THE CAMERA STILL!!!!!! I want to puke just watching this.
Mother Nature at her best!
Mr. Vinn: Great upload. Can you tell me what type of camera you have. The pictures are very clear and beautiful sound. Greetings from Canada.
That was awesome! Thank you.
My latest game is picking one spot on the glacier at the beginning and seeing if I’d survive for the entire vid. I haven’t won yet
I play that game also!😁
Tammy the boat is huge. The ice is melting because of the sun. I want the selfie stick footage😂
Very cool!
Kinda neat ! Whoa, wow and chuckl.......
I enjoy fun-loving tourists laughing their way through climate change!
Calving is caused by growing glaciers, not shrinking. Stay in your lane.
@@paneofrealitychannel8204 Please keep telling yourself that alternative fact!
Hollering fake laughs, Screaming, Applauding.
This is a very recent phenomenon,there were no icebergs before 1985.
I see we have a Greta fan 🙄
That was very interesting and very cool
Its crazy to me how ice breaks off to make half circles with a nearly perfect radius sometimes.
good shots
I was thinking that the whole facade of that glacial face was going to fall in all at once. That would had been something.
and I dont think is funny at all watching the future fading away, and people thinking that is cool to see RIGHT
Just planting my comment before this glacier of a video hits 1 million views
I've seen more ice fall out of my refrigerator freezer!
Just imagine that the last time some of that ice saw sunlight the mammoths were walking around on it.
It is awesome to see it
This is so beatiful and scary same time
Ale wszytkim jest wesoło, nie ma się z czego tu śmiać, ocieplenie, proces nieunikniony, to wszytko się już kończy, a tu wycieczki w widzami którzy śmieją się jak to wszytko pięknie wygląda jak sie obsuwa lód. Ech......
MAGNÍFIQUE
Hear like growling along one this time 😎
Because the sun is on that one spot. Lol that was perfect
Having seen and heard a glacier calving is something you should experience. Book the cruise and go.
I’ve taken this Alaskan cruise 4 times. I’ve traveled all over the world on cruises and the Alaskan cruise is hands down the BEST and MOST beautiful cruise available. Nothing compares. God created so many amazing places on Earth, but Alaska takes the cake in my eyes!!!! Thank you Lord for this beautiful paradise.....
Does it moo? Everyone is getting about saying "calving" to each other and nodding knowingly, as fellow experts! Wankers. I wouldn't know a calving ocean if it arrived in the mail Here, people are too cool to explain it!
to Tom laMore…… beg to differ, but Antarctica wins hands down……especially on a day trip on a QANTAS 787, down to 10000’. The ONLY way to get perspective of its humongous area, is to see it from the air. Much like Wilpena Pound, Ayers Rock, Bungle-Bungle, Katherine Gorge, the mountain ranges in Central Australia....must be seen from the air to appreciate in context……
Amazing to see it but sad as well.
Sad? Why? This is nature at work! The glacier is “growing” and that’s good!
Just a natural non AlGore swindle event
4:35 still waiting...
Welcome to the algorithm
Welcome to global warming
Damn.....I want more!!!!!!!!
Magnificent
Cool look at the right side before it caves down and it looks like a face pretty cool looking
"Limited time only!" Hmmm... That's a hot ticket! 🤔
Imagine if behind the wall of ice a fully preserved dinosaur
Ten thousand years of snow fall ❄ and the people sound like the Swedish chief from the Muppet Show.
I know, I know, if it's YOUR video, obviously it's wonderful, but have you noticed that for everyone else's videos, you're screaming PLEEEEEASE keep the [expletive deleted] camera still, and ZOOM OUT because a close up of a big splash doesn't mean anything.
The magnificence of Mother Nature reminding us who is truly in control
Nice vedio
It's collapse was hypnotic
Whoopie! Ten of thousands of years of ice calving worldwide! Whoopie! Fun!😢
Vanderfull video!
the power of nature!!!
No big deal there. You can tell it was being filmed by a cheechako. There are some videos of really spectacular calvings elsewhere on KZhead. This was everyday stuff.
Bob, Gotta disagree, been working out to see South sawyer glacier outside of Juneau one of the most active tidewater glaciers as well as Dawes glacier, throughout glacier bay, and out here to Aialik almost daily last summer out of Seward, as well as college fjord in prince William sound! This was not “an everyday occurrence “. By the way I have lived here in Alaska the past 40 years.
Well, I waited for it. Alas, it never came.
The wave came right after you stopped watching! 😂😂
So sad to see these things happen before our eyes! When all the glaciers are melted and gone, man is also gone!
Just a natural non AlGore swindle event
Nature is awesome ♥️
We all be fine, this boats huge....... famous last words of the Titanic meeting an iceburg.
"Dry land is not a myth!" Kevin Costner in Waterworld.
How did they know when to start filming and that this would happen?
The spectators on the boat seem to be trying to out shout each other with "Wow"
how many meters high you reckon that face is ??
Oohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Whoaaaasaaaaa!!!! Whoaaaasaaaaa!!!! Oohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
Por favor, es impresionante!!! Gracias por tan espectacular toma en cada caída, desprendimiento, y el oleaje que producía cada una de ellas. Gracias por compartir .
Surf`s up Dude!! Dang it, forgot my board !!!
Whoa!
Doesn't calving have to result with a second berg? That just looked like weathering to me.
No matter the technical term, it's fun to watch. (No, I'm not in climate crisis emergency mode, so don't bother saying "it's more than just a spectacle")
What a color
@4:22 " yo did you see that" XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD snuck that one in there right before the buzzer.
