    My family name was Fürster, but when we moved to the the British colonies in the mid 1700s they changed our last name to Furst. We originally lived on the border of what became Switzerland and Germany. The name means Forester and when names were given, you would often be given a name related to your occupation. We were responsible for maintaining the forests in mountain sides and valleys above the towns that were at the base of the mountains. After you have seen this video you can understand that this was a very important position. The forests protected the villages from rock slides in the summer and avalanches in the winter. I am proud of our family name and this video explains why.

      To the best of my knowledge, that was also the family name of my grandma, the mom of my father, but we are Jewish. My father side definitely has a German look. Forests are essential for preventing landslides and at the end of the day their roots do more good than harm. Forests naturally stop growing about above 2200 meters. You can clearly see the tree line when climbing Pigne de Arolla in Switzerland. Below that line, they are the protector of mountains.

    • @Adelicows

      Foresters cut trees down to use for wood. That's a very valuable occupation but they didn't protect anyone from rockslides or avalanches. A rockslide or avalanche will easily take out any trees in its path.

    I like how the beginning happens, a couple of rocks here, a few there. Then as the stability in the ground underneath the rock, which is usually only kept in check by a handful of trees and 15-20cm of dirt, but as soon as that is shaken loose, then it is a veritable mad rush to the finish line. Thanks for no crappy music, but a tiny bit of audio would have been awesome to hear the sound of that avalanche... though it is probably also a good thing, as I watched a vid of a snow avalanche onces when I was younger, and it scared the crap out of me.
