A huge chunk of an iceberg has broken free, creating a large wave trying to submerge a boat off the coast of Greenland.

The incident took place at the Ilulissat Icefjord, a popular tourist destination and Unesco World Heritage Site.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site is a place (such as a forest, mountain, lake, desert, monument, building, complex, or city) that is listed by the UNESCO as of special cultural or physical significance.

The video was filmed by Jens Møller, the nephew of the captain, who was ferrying an Australian tourist around the area.
