VIDEO: ‘That day was almost our last’ – narrow escape from ‘iceberg tsunami’

Like the guy says: “Wow.”

IF THERE’S ONE lesson that nautical history should have taught us, it’s this: Don’t mess with icebergs.

But the makers of this video must have been out of class that day. Jens Møller writes that it was taken from his uncle’s b0at after they took a tourist out to see the glacier near Ilulissat, Greenland.

His description of the video includes this stirring passage:

The beautiful scenery was amazing, but the nature doesn’t care about anyone. That day almost became our last day.

Personally we doff our hats to the guy who just says ‘Wow’ again and again:

There’s also this alternative footage, apparently of the same event but from a different angle. And, in fairness, mainly consisting of somebody’s leg.
