Extreme tourism is part of the Icelandic experience but has been quite challenging. Glaciers are particularly precarious and tragic accident happened a short while ago on Breiðamerkurjökull glacier. An overhanging ice shelf broke and it was believed that a number of people had been trapped under the ice. In their lecture, Freyr Ingi and Sigurður Bjarki describe the challenging work on site.
