Jamie Ellison, a horticultural instructor based in Nova Scotia, discovered the curiously phallic shaped tower of ice during a visit to Griquet, Newfoundland.

The iceberg has since caught the attention of many people and publications online.
“I’m in awe at the speed of how information travels and that humans seem curious about our anatomical representations in nature,” Ellison told RT.com.
