UK BBC 'brinicle' or, ice finger of death


How cool is this?

It's like icicles in the ocean that come down and take over the land for themselves.  It's some mixture of icy cold death and mineral deposits, but it looks like it's got its direction pointed out.  It has a goal.  It is going to kill someone, it knows what it wants.  This is just one more reason to fear the cold...fear its intelligence.  I only imagine it will be a few years until it learns how to walk and encases us all in it's icy death like some asbestos home slowly giving us mesothelioma.  The time lapse part of the video is fun to watch though.
