It could be a scene out of a 1950s horror film - an unstoppable 'ice tsunami' gradually moving ashore, destroying everything in its path. But this footage actually shows the weather phenomenon known as ice floe in action in Minnesota, north America, over the weekend.Strong winds are responsible for pushing this sheet of ice off the top of Lake Mille Lacs and up over the shoreline right up to resident's doorsteps.
This footage filmed by a homeowner shows the eerie ice shards slowly covering ground before eventually creeping into people's home. Youtube user Darla Johnson uploaded the footage of ice rising out of Milles Lacs Lake and into the townhomes of Izatys Resort on May 11. The panic-stricken mother can be heard warning her son not to go near the ice while watching it getting closer and closer to her own home. Ms Johnson says: 'Look at it. It's crawling up. It's just pushing and pushing and pushing.
