Two kayakers, Andrew Hooper and Josh Bastyr, had a lucky escape when a glacier collapsed at Spencer Glacier in Alaska on August 10.
Dramatic video captured the moment of a series of ice structures collapsing, creating a huge wave that sent the two fleeing.
"I've got here with a couple pieces of ice. I've got a knot on my hand. I had my ribs hit with a piece of ice. I'm completely soaked. Josh's soaked. After the burst hit we were able to see the iceberg again and it went under, you know, from falling. And it created a good 8 till 12 foot wave that was headed straight for us. So we both turned the boats around and paddle as quick as we try to ride the wave out and luckily everything turned out ok so no regrets," said Hooper.
