Mandag den 7. juli 2014 ved middagstid fik en lille flok gæster fra Albatros en unik oplevelse. På vandretur tæt ved udmundingen af Ilulissat Isfjord så vi et kæmpe isbjerg knække over og rulle rundt. Jeg var heldig at fange scenariet på video. Hilsen Peter Søndergaard.
Personally, I'm astounded that something that big can just one day decide "today I will roll" and do so in the span of minutes
Exactly.
It should be a testament to the fact that anything can be accomplished by those willing to change.
@@SpartaCraft22965 LOL, it’s not a sentient iceberg, it’s just the aliens inside steering it. That’s why you shouldn’t text while driving.
And someone would know to be there to take a video at the right time.
I don't even understand how that could happen. Aren't icebergs bottom-heavy? Tip of the iceberg ( OK, that's taken a new meaning) Nine-tenths under the surface?
The blue of the water as it was flipping, is the most beautiful sight ever. Man that would be incredible to see in person.
My stupid ass thought it would be neat to drink it
@@AmorrSummerstorm not going to lie, the sea does somewhatlook like blue raspberry slushie
That was the most significant thing to me too, it's just so blue, look at that beautiful, pure, crisp blue.. the sheer wonder of nature, nothing is more beautiful.
It's even more incredible if you smoke weed first. That's The power of mother nature.
There are pictures out there of that blue ice. Try looking for blue ice. It will either get you to them or close enough to find it. Good luck.ps. Am aware that you would like to SEE in person!😊
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.
This shot took 12,000 years to create. Imagine being there for that once in an age moment. Truly incredible.
Not that long. Ice flows and moves under the pressure of new snow in the centre of Antarctica. It is a continuous process. Antarctica is losing more than 100 billion tons of ice a year as glaciers flow into the sea - this is made up again as billions of tons of snow fall in the centre.
LOL. 🤣🤣🤣
don't have to. someone spent 12 000 years standing there with a camera so I could watch it in 4 minutes on youtube.
I had my browser set to automatically translate anything on the page to English so I could read the description, and for some reason, it translated your name to "Dirty Bag". Apparently, there's a language in which "worka" means "bag". You've made a good comment, and I'm not trying to be disrespectful. Just something I found funny.
@@Ben_Kimber Yes! Me too! Also, every time I read a story about the President, it translates Joe Biden to "vegetable".
Translation: On Monday, July 7, 2014 at noon, a small group of guests from Albatros had a unique experience. On a hike near the mouth of the Ilulissat Icefjord, we saw a giant iceberg break over and roll around. I was lucky enough to capture the scenario on video. Regards Peter Søndergaard
AND, POSTED IT FOR THE WORLD TO SEE 2million plus!
Stolen
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🌹💖🌍🌎🇺🇸

@@FUNNYtheONE Thanks
What's cool, is it doesn't even look wet as it comes out of the water.
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
THe water is not calm AT ALL. From a distance it just looks like the waves are moving in slo motion where as if you get close u can see the pressure and strenghth of the water. It would not be fun being near that berg when it flips.
I couldn't imagine what an iceberg flipping over would be like. It was a fantastic sight and sound!
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 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
Thank you so much for posting this. The berg was incredibly beautiful; the ice looked pleated, or carved into columns. And it didn't turn over at all in the direction I was expecting. It was a privilege to see this gorgeous ice before it vanished.
I'm experiencing the cold air from all this melting It's not pleasant. I'm actually very concerned. I've contacted the authorities on planet Jupiter and have told them about all this melting going on here. They sent me back a very bubbley drink. I thought, what's this? I drank it. It was nice and chilled.

Why so melodramatic?
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.

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

@AFTV AND SIDEMEN CLIPS didn't realize this was from global warming... just thought the water looked nice
That’s got to be one of the most amazing and beautiful things in nature to witness. How very lucky for the fortune ones to have seen this in-person…
Until you realise that it is happening because the oceans are warming and that is fresh water melting into saline water helping to expedite the near future, when all fresh water supplies will be depleted - by 2050.
Sooo much Respect to the camera person that shot this video W/O loud commentary that is a distraction of nature taking it's course..Kudos camera person,😊 Kudos!!

Lol it was not based off that silly! 😝
The most terrifying part for me is how unimaginably deep it must be only a couple meters from the shore
Thalassophobia kicking in there. I got exactly the same feeling, how deep and dark it must be right down the side of that iceberg 😧
Judging by the sedate wave action approaching the shoreline, it gave me the impression that body of water is deep, indeed, as shallow water approaching the shoreline is what generates high wave action. That lack of wave action surprised me. The description of the video can be translated into English. Place cursor on that text, right-click on it, and select _translate_ in the drop-down menu.
What shore
@@bloqk16 200 meters is the depth.
@@Ilikefinalfantasy795 Wow! That is deep!
the sound is insane. the way the water looks blue is so beautiful as well.
One of the most enthralling, mysterious, magnificent things I have ever seen. Awesome upload.
Frightening, but at the same time very, stunningly, beautiful. The colour of the water was incredible. What a truly wonderful moment to witness.
Too, many, commas.
Pretty frightening shit actually
I was just thinking the exact same thing, Geraldine! I would want to run away in fear but be glued to the spot in fascination!
OMG ! I would have been so scared 😳
My ex-girlfriend was also frightening but at the same time stunningly beautiful.
The sound of the ice falling is kind of scary. So loud even from far away.
@@JeffJeffJeffJeff33 bruh shut up
@@anon2916 No you. If you're so afraid of every little thing, then just stay in your basement and never come out, you useless troglodyte.
@@shawnpitman876 I don't think it's fair to say that. A flipping iceberg isn't a little thing, not everyone will see it happening in real life. The ice breaking is huge, and it's that idea, that the ice below the water is so big and that the water itself is so deep, that makes the phenomena so intimidating.
@@shawnpitman876 its not a little thing idiot. Its a fkin iceberg cracking which makes a booming cracking sound. Imagine being on the iceberg that is literally thousands of times bigger than you and hearing it crack. I swear you dumb fuks act tough online and for what? To feed ur ego cuz ur parents dont love you? What circumstances couldve possibly created you and your dumb comment? And no, I didn’t find the vid scary, but could empathize the feeling of being scared if i was on or near it.
Y know, none of this was even necessary, if you dont have anything good to say just don’t say it Also it seems that you didn’t even read his comment properly Shawn said that an iceberg flipping over is NOT a little thing
How much was lost is amazing, plus the fact 9/10 of an iceberg is underwater. It didn’t seem that deep either. Fantastic photography and thank you for the natural background noise.
Magnificent color deep in the glacier, an awe inspiring event. And the crowd was amazingly subdued for such an event.

@@ronratcliffe2219 I dream a lot! Lol yes, it's so much easier in your mind's eye to put together a painting ... it's a nice fantasy. But then when you put the brush (or in some cases the pallet knives... a fav method) to the canvas it can be magical! Happy arting! I also love to draw. That's where it began for me.
@@ronratcliffe2219 your vision sounds good. .. I too came from below modest means, and as the youngest of 4 I found myself drawing the funny papers at a young age... most likely I was meant to be cleaning my room... wound up taking some drawing, and painting in college. Oil painting is not for me. It hates me! I am comfortable with acrylics, and have dabbled in watercolors which I find just so hard. Good luck creating whatever you try!
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.
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.
This is truly amazing to see! The blueness if the water accentuates the experience! Truly beautiful!
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

@@dwightmagnuson4298 yes like 300 times in one second.
Earth: _Time to get up, sweetie."_ Iceburg: _"Five more minutes mom..."_ *rolls over*
HOLY SHIT!!! When I saw the thumbnail I thought it’s definitely not that one. When I saw the start of the video I thought, it’s probably just that small one, that large one could never hold the weight of it flipping over especially with the length. But oh my god! Not just was it so much larger than expected ( you can see some ice chunks fall off of the cave roof and they take seconds to hit the water ) and though it did crumble under its own weight as expected, it still managed to rotate that massive block of ice over onto its side! It’s just stunning!!!
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 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
The blue of the water when the berg tips is gorgeous.
One of the BEST VIDEOS of Glacier Calving I've ever seen by Far.!!!!
Wow. That's a shade of blue I rarely see. There's so much depth and intensity. I could watch that over and over again.
Dumb
Was gonna say the same thing. Great color and translucentness (I’m sure that’s not a word)
Glacier water…. Gorgeous!
@@JTD472 point gets across 10/10
I was thinking about that pure-looking color too. It made me wonder about the Most High Creator and the new World he's going to make here for us. How beautiful it's going to be soon. He arrives soon for judgment day. It's all I can think about ❤ this world is going to be so breathtaking and awesome. 2nd Enoch 20:3 for anyone who wants to seek truth in his name.
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.

God: yes I think this iceberg should s p e e n lmao
Instead of flipping icebergs, he could fix the economy.
So an iceberg rolls over like that due to the pockets of air from underneath the berg. As you saw, those cave like holes in the side, over 100’s of years, those caves have captured enough air to lift the berg out of the water and turn over. It would be equivalent to holding a balloon under water. Very impressive on how Mother Nature reacts to something just as simple as air. I am a geologist of over 30 years experience and have been to the South Pole dozens of times throughout my career.
So, are you saying that iceberg is literally over 100 years old?
@@gilbertayala6694 Your explanation, while welcome and informative, does not make it clear that the caves, which I am assuming are the “pockets of air” are not part of the iceberg, over 100’s of years. We’re paying attention, teacher. Clarify yourself.😉
@@sandraressel2262 well warm water currents create the pocket within the bottom of the berg. As the ice melts, it creates a pocket or as you see in the video, looks like a cave. As the pocket gets larger and larger, air builds in and over time, it rolls the berg as seen in the video. There is a French video of me and my partner climbing and ice berg and the berg rolled over, you should check it out.
@@gilbertayala6694 I will do that and thanks for the info. Never too old to learn and when we stop being curious is when we stop learning and frankly, stop living. Nature is freaking awesomely amazing and I’ll never stop craving to know how it works! Do you believe in a Creator? Just curious.🙂
@@sandraressel2262 I TOTALLY believe in the creator. I just find it fascinating on everything I come across and am just interested to learn the history of when something was created and how it came to be. Imagine the Grand Canyon. A MAGNIFICENT SITE !! To know that millions of years it all started by a stream of water and came to be what it is today.
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.
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.

The whole thing is absolutely amazing of course, but to me the most amazing part was that huge portions of the formerly submerged part just absolutely DISINTEGRATED when it flipped!
@Fremen but it is salt water and salt melts ice, it makes the temperature of the water colder, but the salt melts the ice. It eats away at the bottom of the burg, until the top is heavier then it flips. Now to be honest I am NOT an expert on this, so if I am wrong please someone correct me. Being KZhead I probably don't have to make that request.... but please correct me if you are an expert.

That absolutely gives me the chills! Just think, that happens all the time when no one is even seeing it. .. Just amazing to watch!
It's so hard to get a sense of scale of how huge the iceberg is. Even tho things looks like they are falling really slow my mind can't stop thinking it's a very small island being flipped over
at 1:38 you can see a decent sized piece of ice fall. It takes about 2 seconds to hit the water. Given the accelleration of gravity one can deduce the ice fell around 30 meters. (100 feet). Id say the part of the iceburg we can see is 200 feet above water.
MAJOR credit to the cameraman for keeping a steady hand. Is this guy a professional photographer? When something like this is recorded the vast majority of people will absentmindedly lower the camera to get a better look, so half of the footage is ground shots. Most people also instinctively move away from danger => shakey footage of someone's shoes with maybe a quick turn-around shot. That doesn't happen here. Good job.
Why did you type this out?
You can buy a tripod at Wal Mart for like $14.
Are you drunk? This is the worst footage. The camera is all over the place - get a tripod.
That was astonishing and I’m glad I tuned in
how it seems to tease you with THAT blue. fleeting glimpses. amazing capture.
This would be such an incredible overwhelming and humbling thing to experience. Gorgeous.
Yeah, climate change is gorgeous. We’re sooooo f++++d.

We're not fucked mate. This has been going on for 11800 years. Climate change has been happening since the formation of the earth 🌎
@@ernieferrington3358 Yes it has, but ice core samples (300,000 years)have proven that from the beginning of the industrial revolution , C02 levels have spiked massively. The Climate deniers can’t deny the Science.
@@alanr6529 this confusing 😕. My information is from ice core samples as well. They're saying we're having little impact if any compared to our past. Watch the joe Rogan podcast with Graham Hancock and see what you think 🤔
The sound of ice on this scale cracking and straining is incredible. Like bridge collapse scenes in action movies, where the support cables snapping makes that twanging sound? It's like that, but much deeper.
It has to be so loud in person, I could feel my phones tiny speaker trying not to die lol
So in order to reproduce sounds in movies, most directors prefer to use real sounds and implement them from other items. Rain? Just a handful of rice dropped onto a piece of paper. A very bone breaking? A piece of pasta crushed under a weight. Like you mentioned, they use sounds like ice cracking to reproduce tensile/structural strain. When the sound makes sense in your brain it can be repurposed. It is crazy how satisfying ice cracking sounds to us, but if we use the same noise and put a movie containing the Golden Gate Bridge going down it quickly becomes terrifying. I think the underlying part is exactly what you mentioned, the deep resonance and strain inside the object. Such a massive object going through what sounds like pain, and rolling in a way that looks terrifying. I know you didn't ask a question and I truly hope this wasn't annoying. It's just, when I saw you compare the two sounds, I thought I might add to your comment.
Shout out to the uploader for not throwing trashy music over it
I watched this at 2x speed! Crazy how much water displacement it generated. Great steady camera work!
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.
The Fortress of Solitude
I've seen almost this exact things before and it made a SERIOUS impression. Alsek Lake (rafting the Tatshenshini River). Lake full of icebergs (we kept our distance in our rafts), and one the size of a city block just turned turtle, much faster than this one. The coolest part of it, apart from all of it, was the color--a DEEEEEP crystal blue color--no more white. Silky smooth looking, and just amazing. Nature rocks.
It fits in better with the surrounding scenery after the flip!
I love watching them flip over and I'm so glad that no one there was hooping and hollering like in other videos. Natural sounds are best. 🤗
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?
@@aaqilian5.085 Do you propose they swim to a glacier to be carbon neutral?
@@aaqilian5.085 the irony is it’s capitalism causing climate change and not individual consumers who are trapped in that system
@@aaqilian5.085 The irony of your dumbass hating on something you could never hope to experience by making yourself out to sound like you care about the environment and aren't some loser.
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 😊
That's spectacular!!!! I wouldn't have believed something like this happens !!!! Breathtakingly beautiful !!!!!!! Thank you for sharing this!!!
THAT WAS AMAZING! I had to watch it more than once. Thank you for sharing.
That is just epic. A word so frequently overused but should be reserved for moments like this.
True!😆
Yeah, like the word "amazing." Soccer moms ruined that word.
@@v-town1980 lol!!
And awesome, it WAS awesome! I’ve never seen that before, and to hear the sounds in person would have been moving too.
Awesome too
The sounds were amazing. And the fact that it visually fits into its environment more perfectly at the end, rather than at the beginning, is astonishing.
So true 💖
and a opinion. Things just are

That's as natural as it gets, being there at that moment though 😳 ABSOLUTELY beautiful sky blue water!! Thank you, for sharing this experience with the world!!
Always insane how far away everything is in these videos. At first I thought that's like 200 meters away, but holy shit nope, that event is just freaking massive.
U were wrong!!! It whas close
That's about 200-300 yards max
It's saddening knowing the fact that that huge ice berg will now drift away and melt into water over a span of a few months. All that ancient ice just gone. Global warming sucks.
@@lick3227 why is it sad? It’s still there lol just liquid now. I understand being sad when history is lost, but ice has no history it’s just frozen water that’ll refreeze later
@@Number1FanProductions it won’t refreeze though. That’s the point. And as the ice melts, so do the lives of polar bears and penguins.
This is honestly one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen
You think the destruction of our planet is beautiful you sick fuck?
@@alexandersheppard1997 you do know this was Boris Johnsons fault and caused by Brexit.
@@StormTrouper3 so not a combination of all of us humans messing it up? Just bj?
@@alexandersheppard1997 what makes you think the iceberg tipping over was destroying the planet? It just made a little splash thats all. And before you get on your soap box and claim global warming, did you know (which I know you don't because most fanatics jumping up and down abour global warming just like to says shit for the sake of it), the earth goes through cycles. Earth changes the electromagnetic field that affects weather, and every thousands of years, like a cycle, it goes through this stage, we are on the cusp of this change. Like the great flood, or the ice age, etc. This is why we've had our hottest hot, our wettest wet, etc etc, hundreds of years from now, America will become cold, Japan will be a desert, no one will remember the time as they do today. There would be even new continent's and some old ones will sink in the sea. Nothing to do with global warming, just the earth doing its thing. Global Warming isn't what the normies say it is. Sure, do everything you can to help the planet, but have no illusions. Earth, mother nature, is going through its cycle. Nothing more.
i believe...
I've seen many vids of bergs flipping, but this is the largest one I've seen to date. truely impressive.
Alarming and spectacular! Thank you. Imagine all that us young on in nature around us which we never see! Thank you again.
That was like an entire mountain flipping upside-down! Crazy cool

“Is that a titleist?” “hole in one”
Is anyone here a marine biologist?
I looked into the eye of the great fish... "mammal"...whatever
Man, the photos people take here will forever look different from before. What a fascinating record.
The sheer size of this is awe inspiring.
This was one of the coolest things I've ever seen wish I could catch something half as majestic in person some day
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 🥶
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.
Unbelievably beautiful like a well timed elegant dance. Thank you
Nature taking it's course. The blue waves, wow ! 💙
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.
