It looks like something badly CGI'd into a disaster movie, but it's real: an 11 million ton iceberg, slowly moving toward a village, threatening to destroy everything in its path.
Just look at this thing.
A massive section of the iceberg falls off at around 30 seconds in, which gives you a sense of the scale here. If the iceberg becomes destabilised, and a larger chunk is broken off, it could create a tsunami, which could potentially destroy the town of Innaarsuit. This sped up GIF does a good job of illustrating the iceberg's movement.

Tremendous video. Because if you listen, you can hear me! Talking about the problems we're having with NATO, with all the other countries not paying enough. Right now, America is the only country in NATO that's paying enough. The 4% of GDP for military. And maybe that's something President Putin can help us with. Where possibly we bring in Russia. We'll see. But, they had me on the news in Iceland! That's incredible -- and a great honor. And we're going to be seeing that more and more.

They call it Greenland, they should call it Iceland. Because that's a lot of ice. A hell of a lot of ice. Perhaps they could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against!!!!
