While watching this video, I couldn't help wondering the numerous skiers who weren't blessed with the second chance of LIFE.💐✝️
Thank God he was skiing. He couldn't have been there soon enough. I don't go to church or read the Bible faithfully. I do believe God puts people in a certain location for reasons like this . I do hope the ski boarder did not receive any serious injuries.
Wow, awesome, thank u, that was amazing!!!!
Wow I believe he won't have made it if you didn't find him. Thank goodness you were there!
OMG Talkin About Bein At Tha Right Place At Tha Right Time That Was A Miracle For Sure
Fk yea ❤
Nice work👍
Why would you want to do that sport if that's the possibility. Hang out on the baby slopes.
The textbook definition of a HERO
See, that's why….no, just no. Gotta be careful. Don't do this stuff alone and have someone on standby just in case
OMG!!!! 😢 so glad he saw him🙏
Dude was 100% going to die if you hadn’t showed up
Skiers fault 😂
People may not realize how dangerous a pine tree is when covered in snow
Omggggg thank goddddd this man passed by ! 🥺🙏🏼
That "thank you" made me cry. Like when animals get caught in something…you know they are counting on you. The rescuer got a big shot of adrenaline… I think I will just stay home. Yikes.
What a blessing….
What are the chances?
Talk about the mercies of GOD/YAH.
🍃🙏🏾🍃
This literally gave me an anxiety attack.
God Bless that skier helping the snowboarder.
Thank god for his snowboard being above the snow!!! And thank god for that skier noticing!!! He absolutely saved that man's life!!! Omg!!! So scary!!!!!
Where the heck did this skier randomly get a shovel from
Where the heck did this skier randomly get a shovel from
This is THE DUDE 🫡
My guy almost got preserved for 100 years! He found him pretty fast too because he was still able to breathe.
wow, just luck he even seen him
A HERO DOESN'T ALWAYS WEAR A CAPE! ❤❤❤🎉
I cannot imagine the terror of the snowboarder. Even knowing that you've been contacted and that you're going to be dug out, you'd do well to avoid panicking in the moment.
😲😲😲😲❤
❤❤❤❤❤🙏💜💙💚🧡💛🙏❤❤❤❤❤
Omg this is literally giving me chills. I hope that man really understands how blessed he is that that man happened to see him.😮
Off piste costs so many lives. Don't EVER do it alone pple!
That's an awful entirely unnecessary way to die. This guy was SO lucky!
Talk about guardian angel.
Sorry but I sniff out a sus! The convenient shovel or the fact his mouth wasn’t covered by snow to speak! Being able to hear the on coming person. I’m no pessimist and happy he’s ok. Buttt
Wow. Close one, for sure.
Good thing he could wiggle his board. If it hadn’t moved I wonder if the skier would have noticed.
Can someone explain this tree hole thing?
How long were he there??😮 This man is a hero!
Epic thank you
Thank you. I feel like digging him out as well
PRAISE GOD!! 🙌 It was by the grace of God that he was rescued! GOD IS GOOD!! HALLELUJAH! WHAT A MIRACLE!
He almost become the second otzi
Hero ❤
Where's the St Bernard when u need it!
Yay ! Always ski or snowboard with a partner ….❤️☮️🙏
Where'd the shovel come from? You just go skiing the a shovel in hand?
OMG thank you to the man who dug him out ❤
That is absolutely insane!!! 😢That man was sent an angel!!❤
That's was his angel sent..had this guy not turned his head.
I'm kinda naive to how this happens. Does alot of snow from the trees fall onto you?
