INSANE Glacier Wall Collapses From 30 Years Ago (Best of Compilation)

The Perito Moreno Glacier is famous for insane glacier wall collapses during the summer when large icebergs – often up to 250 feet (+75 meter) in height – are breaking off the glacier and collapsing into water of the Lago Argentino. A beautiful landscape, cracking sounds, large icebergs and sometimes even tsunami-like waves create overall stunning spectacles for all visitors.

Despite most of the glaciers worldwide are retreating as a result of global warming and climate change, one of the very few glaciers that maintains in a state of equilibrium is the Perito Moreno Glacier as it continues to accumulate mass at a rate similar to that of its loss.

The ice field of the Glacier Perito Moreno is the world's 3rd largest reserve of fresh water. The glacier is one of Argentina's most beautiful natural wonders – its colors and shapes of the ice remind of a piece of art of Gaudi. The glacier is about 5 km wide and has an average height of 74 m (240 ft).

This compilation shows dozens of glacier calvings filmed in 1988. If you are interest in some more recent events, make sure to also check out our production: "Glacier Calving | 15 Amazing Collapses, Tsunami Waves and Icebergs" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49bYTMo3Vxw).
