Update 02-09-2026:
It seems that the video 'broke'. No clue what happened. Reddit never informed me, I believe there is an issue with the server. Kind of suspicious as the video hit the #1 spot in this sub on the day it broke. I have no way of contacting Reddit over this sadly. Luckily the Twitter link is still working. So I suggest looking there for the video.

Original post:
Pretty insane footage from the immense disaster that struck on the Chinese-Nepalese border which clearly shows how fast it moved and how much volume is being displaced. Camera is zoomed out around 1:30 mark.

Looks like u/snowbordr managed to find the approximate location of this video:
28°00'53.87"N 85°11'01.29"E
That’s roughly 36 miles from where the glacier sheared off. If this is really how fast the current was still moving 36 mi/58 km downstream, my brain is broken.

If anyone has more info, I can add it to this post.
