Jens Møller was visiting his uncle in
Ilulissat, Greenland, when a tourist from Australia
The party set out in his uncle’s 18-foot
boat and began inspecting the glaciers at a place named Eqi, when they heard
some cracking. Thinking that a small section of the glacier was about to fall
into the water, Møller started filming with his video camera.
And that’s when the “tsunami” began. The
falling glacial ice was in fact enormous and created a huge wave as it slid
into the ocean.
Amazingly everyone survived intact, but
here’s more proof that however splendid nature may be, we can never rest safely
in Mother Nature’s arms. Nature does not protect us; we are at the mercy of its
changes and must protect ourselves.
Watch this dramatic video and you’ll see
what I mean!
