The video is of Mr. Miguel Amaya, show the rupture of the glacier Perito Moreno on January 19, 2013.

“On January 19 at 19:18, the ice bridge formed by the glacier on the ice channel collapsed. This phenomenon was unexpected, as in March last year the last break occurred”, Mr. Amaya said.

“Either way, it was not complete (statistics say) because ‘Rico’ arm of the lake had reached to accumulate as other occasions.”

“Anyway, it was a wonderful show and I thank God for the opportunity of having witnessed along with other tourists and residents of El Calafate, and to share it with you now.”
