Video at source. Love the last line - "Sometimes the "blast" from the ice hitting the water is so big that hunters find dislodged salmon in the tops of pine trees on the banks of the river." Now surfers...

I might have a little more respect for JFK had they videoed him doing that...

A couple of things occur to me - how long before someone is killed and they have to put big signs up on the glaciers - unsafe to surf the waves from a calving glacier?
Second is what a thoroughly stupid way to find a thrill - won’t hurt anybody but the person, but like Bill Shatner said a long time ago - “Get a life”
If they want the thrill of risky behavior, maybe they can join the military and fight for our country???

Reminds me of a great song from the 80’s, Surf or Die. I’m not writing the name of the band though.

didn’t look particularly dangerous to me. he was a pretty good distance from the glacier, so little danger of getting impaled with ice. The wave wasn’t very big, and he had a jetski not only to tow him in to the wave but pick him up if he fell.
