Did you know that the gap between Europe and the United States is getting bigger?
Well it is, in fact, the gap is widening by one inch annually!
The gap can clearly be seen in this photo of Alex Mustard, a British scuba diver who is swimming through Silfra canyon. The canyon is a deep fault, filled with fresh water in the rift valley between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates, at Thingvellir National Park, Iceland.
Alex and his crew snapped away as he swam through the fresh water canyons; Silfra, Nes and Nikulasargja, which are up to 200 feet deep. The result is this amazing shot of him in between the two plates.
The North American plate is on the left and the Eurasian plate on the right.
