Tourists were forced to run for their lives after a giant wave headed their way. As the wave approached with water rolling at terrifying heights a group pf 9 ro 10 people began to run over the ice in all directions. The tourists were on a visit to the Vatnajokul National Park which can be reached only by Mountaineers. Local officials reported that all were safe.

The reason behind the wave was the breaking of the iceberg.
