Default Tourist boat get a bit too close to glacier
I'm not sure if I would be too happy with the captain of this sight seeing boat. On the other hand, I'm sure the tourists think the closer the better.

You know... i was there at that exact spot about 3 weeks ago. I took an alaskan cruise and then did the small boat tour further up Tracy Arm as the ship only go up half way. spectacular scenary... but that boat skipper in the video was wayyy to close.

Even better to go to Glacier Bay National Park... amazing bigger glaciers.

Anyone else notice the lady laying on the ground moaning in pain... You dont actually get to see her get levelled by flying ice though.
