Newly released video from 2022 shows the unbelievable moment a skier plunged into a deep glacier crevasse in the French Alps.
The footage was posted on April 18, 2023, by a group of skiers calling themselves ‘The Powtos,’ who were skiing a glacier near La Grave, France, when one came across a deep hole and didn’t have enough time to avoid it.
According to remarks given to local media, the skier fell about 15 meters down, but was safely rescued by the group, who were equipped with ropes, harnesses, and other tools.
The group waited to share the video on social media because they were unsure of the reception it would receive, but decided it could be used to educate.
