A small sightseeing boat narrowly escaped a large wave created by a piece of crumbling iceberg in the Arctic.
The boat carrying a tourist was approaching a gigantic iceberg off the coast of western Greenland on Thursday when the wave was created.
A video taken by a crew member shows the iceberg creaking and cracking and a massive wave closing in on the boat.
The boat barely stayed ahead of the wave as its captain steered it at full speed.
No one was injured in the incident. But the crew member says the day almost became his last day.
Greenland has seen many glaciers melt and crumble in recent years. Some experts say climate change is to blame.
