I worked in Alaska for a summer on a glacier tour boat. The oldest and most compressed ice is the blue color but only from this vantage point. Up close it appears completely clear. It is reflecting, or whatever it's called, the color of the blue ocean water below it. The top layer of the glacier you can see is white because it still has bubbles in it and refracting, or whatever it's called, sunlight. I cannot fathom how crazy it would have been to be on a boat watching that when it happened. We definitely had close calls the summer I worked there and we had to stay a safety mile away.

I find it so neat how blue that ice is. The part underwater was soo much bigger than I expected.

You definitely want to be on higher ground to see it unfold though! Those waves have been known to kill seals!

About 15 years ago I spent $145 on a guided walk on Grey Glacier, including crampons , ropes and harnesses. We were taken by a small boat to the glacier, on the far side where the ice met the rock, thought probably much further to the left given the retreat of the glacier face since then. Then we walked for probably a couple of hours, roped together before returning by boat. The blue of the ice where water channels cut into it was a blue I've never seen before or since. Probably the best $145 I ever spent.

This oscillation in warm and cold global temperatures has been happening since the beginning of time. We do not have accurate enough measurements to determine our exact impact on this normal cycle. It may be minor, or it could be extreme. But the change in bio diversity has been happening since before we were around, and will continue after we have left. The ONLY way for us to ensure that we truly have no impact on this cycle is if we all went back to living like we did during the Stone Age. That would mean BILLIONS of deaths across the globe which is not a good answer either. Green energy initiatives for the most part are as bad for the environment as fossil fuels so they aren’t a good answer either.

OMG that is the darkest blue I have seen for frozen water, absolutely gorgeous

Никогда не подумал бы что там такая глубина! Очень познавательное видео!

Nice capture! No talking. No repeated "oh my god , oh my god , oh my god". Just the wind and the spectacular moment forever captured in time.

This was amazing to view. I cannot get over the color's, the silence, other than the wind and the beauty of such a once in a lifetime event. Bravo on filming !!

You guys will never know this shade of blue. Videos don’t do it justice. When I first visited it was like something from Pluto. I had thought that my eyes had seen every colour palate know to mankind and I was humbly reminded and beautifully shocked. The blue is incredibly rich and deep, an awe some type of blue.

There's nothing "beautiful" to see Nature dying.

The deep blue of the submerged portion of ice was gorgeous. Amazing coloring.

Spectacular and beautiful, while also terrifying how quickly these glaciers are receding.

The different blues of the ice are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for an excellent capture 👏

The amazing colors between the top and bottom of the ice. Such a huge displacement. I actually watched it three times it was so beautiful. Thank you for this video.

incredible video! the blue in the deeper part is amazing!

Beautiful colours ❤

It's always amazing to see a chunk break off and you get to see the submerged part of the Iceburg surface for a second and realize how massive it actually is.
