YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Heart-stopping video has been circulating purporting to show a Russian skier going over the edge of a cliff in a terrifying avalanche.

The footage, first posted in late November, shows the lead skier in a group approach the edge of a snow cliff and stop — before the entire bank of snow gives way beneath him.

The other skiers — one of whom is filming — shout and approach the edge to look for their comrade, before quickly backing away to avoid the same fate.
