Skier buried in Avalanche: all in film!!

[HOZ]

His own head camera catches him being dragged 1500 feet in 20 seconds. Found and rescued in 4 minutes.

With sound!


Later found to be a hoax as he was hiding in his Dad's attic.

That video is absolutely terrifying. The whimpers he makes while buried were sending shivers down my spine.

They should have random video screens showing this video on the boundaries of any ski resort that has any kind of BC access.

That avalung is quite the invention.

Allows you to breathe air directly from the snow pack around your buried body!

Wow, seeing that top layer break and begin to slide must have been a nightmare, let alone what followed. wow.

I believe he didn't have it completely in his mouth at the time of the avalanche though.

Saw this video before, only word to describe it is "wow".
He's very lucky, his group got to him very quickly.

That'd be so freaking scary. The joy he must've felt when they first broke through the snow where he was would've been unbelievable. I can't imagine how rattling it'd be hearing those voices, and hoping they could find you before you suffocated.
