The images are chilling. On Instagram, an English tourist shared a video showing the collapse of a glacier from a mountain in Tian Shan, Kyrgyzstan.
Isolated from a group of tourists, he says he heard the cracked ice and then began to film. “Oh my god,” he says in the video as the mass of snow gets closer. The young man ends up taking shelter. “I thought I was going to die,” he says.
