Скачать или смотреть Kayaker completes biggest descent of glacial waterfall

Kayaker Aniol Serrasolses has descended a 20-metre ice waterfall in the Arctic Circle - the biggest ever recorded descent of a glacial waterfall.

The 32-year-old Catalan adventurer paddled through the rapids and ice tunnels of the glacial river on the ice cap before descending the ice waterfall in Brasvellbreen, the Svalbard archipelago of Norway.

To access to the waterfall the crew had to climb up the ice cap using a ladder and then walk 11 kilometers across the ice to access the glacial river, crossing streams and crevasses.

As the first person to run the waterfall Serrasolses chose to name the descent "Philip's Ladder" as a tribute to the crew.
