This is interesting on many levels, so I thought it worthy of the Tea Room:

Indeed- thankyou Michael for citing it.

Thinking about the iceberg finally broke loose, I wonder if it was by melting enough to raise it sufficiently to release. Alternatively it was sitting on quite a small patch of sea-floor and currents scoured that away.

I went on from the iceberg article to one of the others listed below it, that of the wreck of Endurance.
