Trapped in an avalanche, you know you don’t have a long time left. Oxygen deprivation is imminent, and the weight of the snow burying you in makes it impossible to move. Dangerous backcountry skiing trips can end up with death, and even when you’re careful, you can find yourself in an unplanned situation. Let’s get into it!

For those who are really taking risks knowingly, you can increase a lot your chances to float by taking with you an avalanche airbag. It won't protect you from shocks like a car airbag, but it's a balloon in your back that helps you float, considering that an avalanche acts like a fluid. However, it takes space and weight. 7 lb to carry all the time, plus your water and stuff. But it can save your life.

Very good advice. It’ll help you float and even if you don’t it’ll help you stay closer to the surface, and even if you end up buried deep, it will create a much bigger air pocket for you to breath in and potential space to move in, once it deflates.

@HenrikMyrhaug 2 года назад

I was in an avalanche risk managing course once, and we had one exercise where we got partally buried (just the upper body, the legs weren't buried, and were used to signal when we wanted to be dug out). I used to think I would be able to move enough to expand the space around me, but after that exercise, I can say for a fact that if you were buried by an avalance, you would not be able to move at all. Worst of all is your chest is compressed by the pressure from hundreds of kilograms of snow, making you unable to take full breaths if you are even lucky enough to be able to breathe at all. You should always carry a transmitter so that you can be found if you get buried, as that is the best way to easily be found under the snow. If you need to dig someone out, it is also important to know you can not just dig straight down, you have to make a trench so that you can pull them out sideways, as pulling a person straight up out of packed snow is virtually impossible.

If you are going into the back country, I highly advise you carry an avalanche air bag. They are worn like a parachute but function like an inflatable life vest. There is a ripcord (typically on the shoulder strap) that will break the seal on a couple of air cylinders and surround your upper body with an air bag. This will make you less dense than the snow and ensure that you remain upright. You may still need to wait for someone to help dig out your feet, but your head won't be under the snow and you'll be plenty easy to spot.

I took part in avalanche training two years ago, run by elite rescue team in Tatra mountains in Poland. We have slightly different procedures which is normal since avalanches are a little different in our mountains. However - best way to survive avalanche is to avoid in the first place. And best way to avoid it is no to go the mountains if the conditions are bad... it's almost impossible to predict if avalanche goes off or not.

In my town there is many areas of where there is land that people want to buy but can't because of these lord schemes. Kinda annoying when there is what used to be a building or a nice grass area get torn up to then be left with a fence around it.

In an avalanche burial scenario, snow's insulative properties are both a blessing and a curse. You can stay alert longer and call for help. But your body also won't cool fast enough to preserve oxygen. If I had to choose between the two, I'd rather go into an oxygen conserving hypothermic coma and get dug out and revived at my rescuers' leisure, so to speak. But snow being the way it is, I'd just suffocate.

There are some avalanche air-space devices, like a collar or vest that inflate before you get buried and protect the neck and face. The last product I remember being shown was back in 2016. A "Before and after" helmet that bloomed out a four inch tubular frame down the sides of the face and chest after you tumble and (2 sets) again manually triggered with oxygen. The fabric was a wire laced radio signal booster and there was a beacon and sound alarm that could be paused for talking. .. I think it was by 3M or the fabric, at least.

Not necessarily, you can still dig a small hole to let yourself breathe to last longer.

Moments you got wrong in my case is I passed out in about 2-3mins, you create an impregnable pocket as you breath and snow around your mouth turns into ice not letting oxygen in. Spitting to know your position won’t help as you are in no position to help yourself.

The Avalanche receiver has sensors that monitor the person wearing it, once the sensors detect something is wrong, it alerts rescue crews. So even though nobody in the group was able to call for help, the receiver itself called for rescue crews after its sensors picked up information that suggested the people were buried. At least this is my understanding of it.

Ski resorts also employ explosive devices to set off avalanches in a controlled setting, usually off the backside of the mountain. They used to use artillery guns back in the day XD. I have a RECCO reflector in my ski jacket. Not many brands have them stitched in and you usually have to buy a seperate one, but I am so happy mine came with one :)

The ending of the video filled me with an immense sense of relief for some reason.

0:25 If you are skiing in the back country and you don't imagine being in an avalanche, you probably should not be skiing at all, let alone in the back country. You need to know the danger signs of a possible avalanche so you will know the places to avoid, are the places where you need to trigger an avalanche when everyone is safely out of the way.

I can't help but feel like this is something I'd love to experience. Even if it does cost me my life.

@geoffgreenwood6968 2 года назад

100% - suffocating, the darkness, not being able to move, the claustrophobia... everything I don't want to experience, but I'd be totally okay going in an avy

Dude, you made me feel like I was drowning in an avalanche.

@jessicac8090 2 года назад

I never intend to ski or do something that would risk me getting in this situation but hey it’s good to know and satisfy my paranoia somehow

As a Skier I’d like to mention that avalanche safety is one of those things where prevention is much better than treatment. 1. It’s highly unlikely you’ll get caught in any sort of serious avalanche if you are on an actual groomed run, rather than backcountry. 2. If in backcountry, make sure you have a radio, that the weather patterns are good, and that the snow isn’t in the sun too long or too messed up by the wind (you will understand the snow better as you gain experience) 3. ALWAYS bring at least 1 other friend with you. NEVER EVER EVER go into backcountry by yourself unless you are comfortable with a big risk. 4. If it is a POW day (“powdery” snow, like really deep, fluffy, and light) it can be easier to cause an avalanche. So be careful in backcountry on pow days 5. If there is a higher chance of an avalanche while you are skiing based on multiple factors, try not to “cut across” the entire slope with your skis/snowboard- it can cause a fault in the snow and create an avalanche 6. You can get a roughly 7lb avalanche “life vest” type thing for yourself if you know you will be in the backcountry. It can save your life. Moral of the story: avalanches aren actually as absurdly easy to trigger as tv shows make them seem, BUT when they happen they are very dangerous. Basically, COMMUNICATE via walkie/radio with people and/or have friends. And stay on groomed runs unless you are 1. Okay with the risk, 2. Are good at leveraging risk because of your experience, or 3. Have multiple safety measures in place and have friends

@alanmartinez45 2 года назад

Hi nice video! But you forgot one tool that has saved more lives than most, the auto inflatable bags, they go on your upper back and keep you close to the surface of the avalanche, are bright colored to help rescue efforts and give you a bigger pocket to move in if you are completely covered....

@TheCudmaster 2 года назад

Snow is something like 90% air, you don't run out of air, your hot breath melts the snow around your head, which freezes back into an ice crust that the air, just mm away, can't get through. Inflatable avalanche backpacks (to keep you near the top of the snow like the big chips on the top of a bag of chips), and breathing tubes (so you can pull air from the snowpack away from your face, if you are lucky enough to have it in your mouth after you are done crashing) are both pretty cool ways to self rescue or extend your survival time. Also, fresh powder is a good time to ski in bounds at a resort, backcountry is generally much safer after having a few days to stabilize. Local avalanche forecasting agencies and AIARE (or equivalent) avalanche classes are your best source of info. I'm just an rando on the internet. RIP Brad, this was more or less your fault, but dying still sucks.

@merickahlberg5328 2 года назад

There’s honestly a lot wrong in this. I would highly recommend if you plan on playing in the mountains in the winter take an Avalanche safety course. Whether you’re skiing or hiking/climbing.

@geoffgreenwood6968 2 года назад

There's a lot right about it. They suggest taking a class. And it hits all the basic points.

i live in the BC mountains and i can say now that most of the guys i know will have the transponder on the inside not outside of the jacket and also they will carry a small can of air that will let them survive for longer most of them will have 2 hours of extra air. great video tho

Just started watching video I heard the first thing to do when buried by one is spit to figure out which way is up so you can dig in the correct direction some people have been found dead cuz they could have dug themselves out but dug in the wrong way
