EVER SEE AN ICEBERG FROM TOP TO BOTTOM?

This came from a Rig Manager for Global Marine Drillingin St. Johns, Newfoundland. They actually have to divert the path of these things away from the rig by towing them with ships!

Anyway, in this particular case the water was calm and the sun was almost directly overhead so that the diver was able to get into the water and click this pic.

They estimated the weight at 300,000,000 tons.

Ya know, I usually check stuff out on snopes before passing it along, but didn't even give this pic a second thought. Thanks for settin' the record straight.

Hello Swim,

Sorry about that package coming out of no where... But I felt it was much overdue. Good to see you around here.

ajeroth

the fella who put this together stated that this image EXISTS in nature, but could never be captured on film.

He tried to duplicate what he had seen.

So while this is NOT an actual picture of ONE iceberg.......it is a good representation of what it would look like if it were possible to photograph.

Yes,

This photo would be pert near impossible to shoot. You could NEVER find water that clear.

Seen'm in the Gulf of Alaska, simply beautiful....

wo. That is the kind of beauty that takes away your breath.
