Bursting ice dam in Alaska highlights risks of glacial flooding around the globe
- A home in Juneau, Alaska, collapsed into floodwaters caused by a glacier lake outburst, which was captured on video from multiple angles. The house slid into the rushing water after an unprecedented surge in the Suicide Basin led to a massive release of water into the Mendenhall River.
- The floodwaters reached areas historically unaffected by flooding, leading to the loss of at least two structures. Shocking footage of the house collapsing and neighboring buildings succumbing to the flood went viral on social media, garnering nearly 62,000 views.
