Video shows the shocking moment when a huge iceberg splits in two off Greenland

The article describes a dramatic moment captured in a video where a massive iceberg splits into two off the coast of Greenland. The event was recorded from two perspectives: one by TikTok user Mona Hansen from the town of Illulissat and another via live stream from AfarTV at the coast. The iceberg, which had been trapped in the Illulissat Fjord, a UNESCO Natural Heritage site, was part of the Jakobshavn glacier, one of Greenland’s most active ice producers. As the iceberg melted, fractured, and shifted, it tilted, exposing its blue underside and creating powerful waves. The phenomenon highlights the natural processes of iceberg calving and movement, with scientific explanations provided by NASA scientist Dan Berisford. Satellite images from the European Union’s Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission also document the event, showing multiple icebergs drifting in the Disko Bay.
