World champion big wave surfers, Garrett McNamara and Kealii Mamala rode into surfing history last week when they towed into a monster tsunami created by Child's Glacier in South-Central Alaska.
The creator/producer, Ryan Casey, "disovered" the wave in 1995, while on location shooting in Alaska. Then after finishing his last film, Quest, a documentary on big wave surfing, he showed Garrett the wave... that was six months ago. So after a short scout in June, we went up in August to film this...

you are a stupid cunt, stop destroying the earth. alaska obviously is a shithole to breed that sarah palin cunt. shes so fucking stupid as shit. she needs to grab her gun or helicoptor or whatever and hop on her "snow machine" (haha wtf is that?) and drive into the fucking sea.
hoohaa! watch Glacier Project the surf movie for more... scary thing is, the glaciers are melting so regularly that surfers can actually go and surf the waves, getting a couple in a session... freaky
samstidd. "You been there done that? Here in Alaska/ This has only been done this one time on this vid! I live in Cordova about 50 miles from where this happened on the copper river,with childs glacier calving into the river! it had never been done before, anfd "hasn't been done yet", in this small town,if someone else did it, world would have gotten out! I doubt you have ever been on a river in front of a wall of ice,(over 300 ft high,and pieces braking off bigger then houses! You fake fuck!
This will remain in this "longtime local Alaskan here in Cordova', where i was there that day! Awesome sight! Never been done before at Childs Glacier! This local memory will see Alaska daily! You ignorant,clueless,brainwashed fuck! you have no idea how it is up here! Simple!
sry for ranting, bt every vid ive seen has had ppl having a go at the ppl that r just saying "wow thats amazing" which it is, my views may be contravertial to some, but my ice cores coments can be proven as fact, and last i saw we're over dew a spike in climate rise by about 1000 years so i last heard, climate HAS been changing constantly for the past 4.3 billion years and yes it is a shame that they're disapeering but its the worlds cycle.co2 lvs do change on they're own over time.
raver let this Alaskan who has seen plenty of glaciers up here tell you why this childs glacier is different. First, (it is the only glacier in the world that the terminus9front of it), extends out into a river! Second the copper river has some of the highest volume of water coming down it doing about 11knots, so the face of the glacier is getting (consently undercut by the rivers power), making it more unstable then most glaciers, making it one of the most constant calving glaciers on earth!
I keep hearing this " oh the climate has been changing for the last 4.3 billion years" stuff... like that is the ultimate argument winner... Do you really think that the people who believe that the believers in Anthropogenic global warming dont know that this is the case?? Look up the A word..should give you a clue.
The point is there is significant evidence to show that this is happening faster than ever before... So yes your ice cores are great but it isnt an argument winner, sorry.
