quote:
Heart-stopping footage shows the moment a skier plummeted into a crevasse, badly injuring his leg. Edouard Bozon's helmet camera recorded his terrifying situation metres underneath a mountain slope in the French Alps after his friend triggered a small avalanche that sent him flying into the ravine.

Footage captures Edouard, from Lyon, screaming for help from his friend and warning him not to step to the close to the edge in case he sends more snow into the crevasse and buries him. As he yells from the claustrophobic pit, his friend, who is not carrying a climbing rope with him, tries to reach him with his ski poles.

Edouard warns him not to get too close to avoid collapsing the walls of the crevasse, and in horribly claustrophobic conditions, the pair shout instructions to each other to work a way out of the ravine.

Riding glaciers is spooky shite. Snow's usually pretty good, though.

Those refuges on the cliffs at the end of the video are awesome. couldnt imagine staying in one like that.

My takeaway: that helicopter pilot is a badass. Put that red hook right on the money. Dude didn't even have to stretch out his arm to grab it.

His squealing sounds like this should be re-titled to, "The Day Nancy Fell into a Hole but Lived to Have a Glass of Wine with the Girls at the Lodge."
