Title: Ice Tsunami
Post by: troy_curtis on January 11, 2014, 01:13:57 am

This is pretty incredible to watch. See moving ice go across the lawn and crush some houses. Sad and amazing at the same time.

Hi Troy. I came across this vid by accident and was stunned by this phenomena. It would be interesting to know how much further it progressed. I hope the homeowners had a rider on their insurance for "acts of God". The narrator didn't seem to have a British accent, any ideas where it occurred? Thanks, Barry.

This is wild I have seen videos of it before, its unreal to watch waves of ice move like water.

Creepy to watch the little tendrils almost like feelers reaching ahead to pull itself forward (shades of "the blob").
