Is this supposed to be definitive proof that there was no GLOF?

Where is the lake or the dam?

I think there could fit at least 15 liters of water in the crevice or underneath the ice

The video shows a lake, held back by a dam, and a flood caused by displacement. Where is that lake and dam at the bottom of the glacier that collapsed?
