Waterfall Forms Perfectly Round Spheres of Ice

BC Wanderer captured fascinating footage of a friend counting out perfectly round ice spheres formed by a waterfall in Hope, British Columbia. This natural phenomenon occurs when ice sheets break into smaller pieces and are repeatedly rounded by the constant pressure of a waterfall.

A frozen waterfall near Hope BC produces perfectly round ice balls!

Here are other examples that BC Wanderer found.
