Tourists watch as a massive chunk of ice breaks off Argentinian glacier

A large piece of a glacier splashes down into a lake.

The deep cracking sound bursting from within the ice signals the dramatic fall about to happen. Seconds later, a block of ice some 70 metres tall — the size of a 20-storey building — collapses from the face of the Perito Moreno glacier into the aquamarine water below.
