Ever seen an Iceberg from top to bottom

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Sue

This came from a Rig Manager for Global Marine Drilling in St. Johns, Newfoundland. They actually have to divert the path of these things away from the rig by towing them with ships! Anyway, in this particular case the water was calm and the sun was almost directly overhead so that the diver was able to get into the water and click this picture. They estimated the weight at 300,000,000 tons.

    I think this is a beautiful and scary picture which I hope is real and not just some photoshopped hoax!
