Enormous Glacier Calvings montage
A three minute montage of some large glacier calvings I've managed to film over the past few years whilst on various assignments in the high arctic. All of these glaciers are in Svalbard and Alaska.
Calving is absolutely a natural glacial occurrence, what is unnatural now is that rate at which it is happening and this is well documented. Our glaciers are melting at an unprecedented rate. Recently I returned to a location in Svalbard where I had not been for five years. The glacier had retreated so many miles that the glacier was now three smaller glaciers and entire bay was unrecognisable compared to my previous visit.

INCREDIBLE COLLAPSE TRIGGERED BY GLACIER CALVING | South America, Chile
An incredibly large chunk of the Grey Glacier's ice-sheet breaks off and flips over in a spectacular way in Southern Patagonia, Chile. The ice-sheet of the Grey Glacier is currently declining due to increasing temperatures and changes in rainfall. It is part of the 'Southern Patagonian Ice Field', the world's 2nd largest contiguous extrapolar ice field and the largest freshwater reservoir in South America.
The Grey Glacier is famous for insane glacier wall collapses during the summer when large icebergs – often up to 100 feet in height – are breaking off the glacier and collapsing into the water of the 'Lago Grey'. In the right time of the year big blocks of ice break off the glacier and drop into the water. The waves created by such glacier calving events often splash dozens of meters through the air. The glacier itself is about 6 km (3.7 mi) wide and has an average height of over 30 m (100 ft) above the surface of the water.
Thankfully, no-one was injured as boats stay at a safe distance from the glacier (for a good reason).
Glacier calving, also known as ice calving, or iceberg calving, is the breaking of ice chunks from the edge of a glacier. The sudden release and breaking away of a mass of ice from a glacier or iceberg often causes large waves around the area and can result in a shooter which is a large chunk of the submerged portion of the iceberg surfacing above the water. The ice that breaks away can be classified as an iceberg, but may also be a growler, bergy bit, or a crevasse wall breakaway. The entry of the ice into the water causes large, and often hazardous waves. (Find out more here:

Incredible GLACIER CALVING & TSUNAMI WAVE Caught On Camera! | Glacier Wall Collapse (Greenland)
Huge Icebergs collapsing and breaking from the Ilulissat Glacier are often up to 3,000 feet in height (1,000 meter) and are broken up by the force of the glacier and icebergs further up the fjord. Subscribe for more ►
Greenland is home to the only permanent ice sheet outside Antarctica. The sheet covers 3/4 of Greenland's land mass. The Ilulissat Icefjord drains 6.5% of the Greenland ice sheet and produces around 10% of all Greenland icebergs. Some 35 billion tonnes of icebergs calve off and pass out of the fjord every year (Find out more here: In the last 25 years, the Greenland Ice Sheet is rapidly melting, having lost 3.8 trillion tons of ice between 1992 and 2018, a new study from NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) finds. The melting ice has added 0.4 inches (11 millimeters) to sea level rise. Its cumulative 3.8 trillion tons of melted ice is equivalent to adding the water from 120 million Olympic-size swimming pools to the ocean every year (Find out more here:
Ice calving, also known as glacier calving or iceberg calving, is the breaking of ice chunks from the edge of a glacier. It is the sudden release and breaking away of a mass of ice from a glacier, iceberg, ice front, ice shelf, or crevasse. The ice that breaks away can be classified as an iceberg, but may also be a growler, bergy bit, or a crevasse wall breakaway. The entry of the ice into the water causes large, and often hazardous waves. The waves formed in locations like Johns Hopkins Glacier can be so large that boats cannot approach closer than 3 kilometres. These events have become major tourist attractions. Many glaciers terminate at oceans or freshwater lakes which results naturally with the calving of large numbers of icebergs. Calving of Greenland's glaciers produce 12,000 to 15,000 icebergs each year alone (Find out more here:
About this video: Incredible glacier calving & tsunami wave caught on camera (Bo B.)
This video is showing huge icebergs flipping over and subsequently a series of multiple iceberg and glacier wall collapses. Due to the enormous amount of ice falling into the water, the glacier calving event even triggered a series of mini-tsunami waves up to 16 feet in height (5 m) breaking on the shore.

We almost DIED in Spencer Glacier calving - Alaska 2019
My buddy Josh (@steeringsouth) and I rode the Alaska Railroad out to Spencer Glacier Whistle Stop and tent camped over night at Spencer Glacier. We went kayaking in the glacier bay in our Intex K2 Explorer kayaks and witnessed a MASSIVE event as a chunk of a glacier calved about 50 foot from us and created a 10-12 foot wave. We were pelted with chunks of flying ice and buckets of water. To say we are lucky to be alive is an understatement. It was an absolutely stunning phenomenon to witness (and survive) . We learned our lesson and will give glaciers the space they deserve next time we are out exploring. Footage captured using GoPro Hero 7 Black.

Giant +75 Meter Iceberg BREAKING OFF Glacier | Glacier Wall Collapse
Spectacular capture of a large iceberg breaking off the glacier 'Perito Moreno' in Argentina. Subscribe for more ►
In the right time of the year big blocks of ice break off the glacier and drop into the water. The waves created by such glacier calving events often splash dozens of meters through the air. The glacier is one of Argentina's most beautiful natural wonders, the colors and shapes of the ice remind of a piece of art of Gaudi. The glacier itself is about 5 km (3.1 mi) wide and has an average height of 74 m (240 ft) above the surface of the water. The ice field of the Glacier Perito Moreno is the world's third largest reserve of fresh water.
Despite that most of the innumerable glaciers worldwide are retreating as a result of global warming and climate change, one of the few unusual glaciers that maintains a state of equilibrium is the Perito Moreno glacier, because it continues to accumulate mass at a rate similar to that of its loss (

GLACIER CALVING TSUNAMI - Global Warming Effect? Greenland, Antarctica, Ice, Climate | Shockwave
We don't know it is global warming effect, due to climate or something else but Sometimes glacier calving creates huge tsunami like waves in Greenland, South Sawyer glacier, glacier national park, Montana, Alaska, Antarctica and many more places in the earth.
Ice calving, also known as glacier calving or iceberg calving, is the breaking of ice chunks from the edge of a glacier. It is a form of ice ablation or ice disruption and is normally caused by the glacier expanding.
It is the sudden release and breaking away of a mass of ice from a glacier, iceberg, ice front, ice shelf, or crevasse. The ice that breaks away can be classified as an iceberg, but may also be a growler, berg bit, or a crevasse wall breakaway.
Calving of glaciers is often accompanied by a loud cracking or booming sound before blocks of ice up to 60 meters (200ft) high break loose and crash into the water. The entry of the ice into the water causes large, and often hazardous waves like tsunami. The waves formed in locations like Johns Hopkins Glacier can be so large that boats cannot approach closer than 3 kilo meters (1.9 mi).
These events have become major tourist attractions in locations such as Alaska, gtreenland, Eqi, Sawyer, usa, antarctica, alaska, montana, united state, glacier, patagonia. Many glaciers terminate at oceans or freshwater lakes which results naturally with the calving of large numbers of icebergs.
Calving of Greenland's glaciers produce 12,000 to 15,000 icebergs each year alone. Calving of ice shelves is usually preceded by a rift. These events are not often observed.

Glacier Calving Causes Huge Shooters
While viewing the glacier in Tracy Arm Fjord in Alaska large chunks of ice fall from the 200 ft tall tidewater glacier and several large house sized shooters emerge from underneath the water level, creating a huge wave that rocked the boat.

A Childs Glacier calving montage July 20-21 2010 View in 720p!
This is a montage of the best shots I got while watching the Childs Glacier calving on July 21-22.
The sound does not do justice for what we were hearing. It was loud as thunder with cracks like gunshots. The other noise you will hear is the ever present rain on the microphone.
The Childs Glacier is roughly 300 feet high and 1/4 mile away from us. If you take that into account you can figure out how big some of the blocks are and how high the splashes go.
Some splashes go up about 150 feet and some go out as much as 200 feet, with debris ( some the size of small cars) flying much farther. It al depended on how the ice presented itself to the water. Often, with the big ones that came from up high, the ground under our feet bounced up and down like a big earthquake.
It was a great thing to see in person and we were only joined by 3-4 other people the whole time, so no tourist rush to jostle with.
Giant Glacier Calve - Antarctica
I shot this glacier calve from Base Brown in Paradise Harbour, Antarctica while on a Quark Expeditions trip in Jan 2011. The video doesn't really do it justice and apologies for the camera shake, I was nearly full zoom and I wanted to watch it more than film it. I'm guessing the glacier is about 60m high, truly awesome!
I shot this on my Panasonic HDC-HS700K.

Super-Glacier PERITO MORENO: Breaking, Calving and Collapsing - Patagonia, Argentina FULL VERSION
It's big. Perhaps the most interesting of Perito Moreno glacier is its sheer scale. Covering a total of 250 square kilometers, the glacier is 5 kilometers wide and rises 78 meters above the lake Lago Argentino, with its deepest point stretching to approximately 700 meters. It is one of the most important tourist attractions in the Argentinian Patagonia.
The mighty Perito Moreno glacier is one of the most spectacular sights in Argentine Patagonia. Located in the Los Glaciares National Park, the Perito Moreno glacier is one of the largest of the 48 glaciers emanating from Patagonia’s Southern Ice Field. the Southern Patagonian Ice Field located in the Andes system shared with Chile. This ice field is the world's third largest reserve of fresh water
What is the most interesting fact about the glacier is that The Perito Moreno Glacier is one of only three Patagonian glaciers and of very few glaciers in the world that are not retreating even in contemporary conditions of Global warming. Glacier is one of the fastest moving in the world with daily pace of more than 2 meters.
I visited Patagonia in February and March of 2020 just couple of days before COVID closed travel opportunity. Because of that my trip was cut short but I managed to visit three most important destination which were main reason for the trip to Patagonia. Parque Nacional Torres del Paine in Chile, Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre in Argentina and Los Glaciares National Park with Perito Moreno.
One might stay facing the glaciers for days – from morning to evening – and that always something interesting going on there. Calving/Breaking is obviously most exciting so I presenting in program five smaller and medium collapses of glacier which are always loudly appreciate by herds of tourist as you could here in the program.
Cheers – More about my trip to Patagonia next time.
