Dumb Dumb Dumb!!!!!! Major wind effect, and shallow rocks creating a poorly supported snow pack. It is people like this idiot that are going to get us shut down.

Snow Science 101, this guy did everything wrong. I am sure he won't be as lucky next time. Just keep tossing yourself at the hill until it kills you.

he was lucky to stick it, would have been a yard sale had it not.....

Would have been a yard sale if the next section of the slab broke off too.

Like mentioned above, he's not the brightest crayon, but extremely lucky.

I like the how guy is all cool and sh!t because he survived. Then apparently he realizes at the end how lucky he was...." If you can hear me (name?) I love you".

STUPID!

yup.

another guy on a 400hp snowmobile that cant ride.

so ill just point it at the biggest hill imaginable because i do have the ability to turn out and come back down.

sad to say but i dont think he would have made it if he didnt have the hp to propel him upwards through the slide.

That guy looked like all he knew to do was point and shoot, but before he pointed and shot he forgot to see the snow conditions on the slope. No wonder why there are guys killed in slides...

Or hard packed snow. That ch!t won't be slowing down and he's on a 1-ton.

I've never tried it, but at that moment I'd be putting the belts over the ski's.
