OSKAR: So there are a few things we need to have in mind.

JEFF: Okay.

OSKAR: Before we go in. So we can see like the roof here.

JEFF: Yeah.

OSKAR: How thin it is. And this part can collapse, and it does. And then inside the ice cave, you can hear the running water?

JEFF: I can.

OSKAR: You have to mind the river.

JEFF: Okay.

OSKAR: We don't want to fall in the river. So one for you, my friend.

JEFF: Thank you, my friend. Good?

OSKAR: Looking good.

JEFF: I like it.

OSKAR: Let's go.

JEFF: Let's do it. You can hear rocks falling. There's so much water just rushing down. You could just hear pieces of ice just like falling and, and it was cracking. It was actually a lot louder than I thought. I am nervous this could collapse on me. But here's the thing. I've had to overcome so much just to get here. I can't let my fears stop me now.

Oh. Oh-ho-ho. This is incredible. I can't believe how big it is.

OSKAR: It's huge.

JEFF: This is massive. As I walked through the entrance and made it past the darkness, there's just this massive opening and walls of just light turquoise, kind of blue. It's glacier blue. That's what I'm gonna keep calling it. Glacier blue sounds great. To be down here to see the blue, it's just beautiful. And this is a moulin?

OSKAR: This is a moulin.

JEFF: And I love it. It just... It just continues to look like somebody like chiseled away. I've never seen ice this big. Seeing the ice shaped in all these crystal-like sculptures is amazing. Growing up in Florida, I never thought I would see something like this. I'm so excited that we actually found one. Really am. After climbing a glacier, hiking for miles and crossing a icy lagoon, to be here right now is so worth it.
