Iceberg rolling over and breaking
- 9 years ago
Incredible video surfaced online of an iceberg calving in Newfoundland, Canada.
Jason Griffiths was in Kings Point, Green Bay, Newfoundland, when he suddenly spotted a glacier starting to roll over. He quickly grabbed his cell phone and leaned over the balcony of the building he was in to film the action.
In the video, the iceberg is seen rising up slowly — as if it’s about to flip over. Instead, it quickly starts to break up after a cracking sound is heard.
“Oh my glory,” a woman says off-camera.
Only 30 seconds into the video, the iceberg breaks and shatters into the water. It creates a wave that heads toward shore, prompting Griffiths to yell for his wife — who’d been on the shore with the couple’s dogs — to move away..
