Glacier Calving Causes Huge Shooters

While viewing the glacier in Tracy Arm Fjord in Alaska large chunks of ice fall from the 200 ft tall tidewater glacier and several large house sized "shooters" emerge from underneath the water level, creating a huge wave that rocked the boat.

Shooters are cool! Imagine that ice probably hasn't seen daylight in thousands of years!!

Lovely footage. The seals basking on one of the smaller ice floes was a nice touch - gave a better impression of the immense size of the icebergs.
