ACCORDING TO THE description on this clip, this snowboarder was attempting a new line in a resort in Mürren, Switzerland after a fresh snowfall.

The new soft powder disguised dangerous crevice in his path. Thanks to the boarder’s helmet-mounted camera, you can see the moment (at around 30 seconds) where he spots the hazard and attempts to stop, but slips right down in between the rocks.

SPOILER ALERT: He escapes and lives to tell the tale.
