The snowboarder who is filming is Victor Liebenguth. They found her friend about 70 meters away and after this rescue a second avalanche hit on the face of the mountain and trapped a third person that they rescued as well. Everyone made it off the mountain face alive
Lmao you see how much snow she was covered by and still didn’t even try to escape 😂😂😂 it’s actually pathetic. She could of got out herself hahaha I think she just wanted to be rescued
I lost a friend in an avalanche almost 30 years ago this January. She was a 38 year old world class skier. So grateful these two are safe. Bless you all.
Not just luck, precaution. You can see she has an inflatable pack that helped keep her more bouyant during the avalanche, and they tracked her location with an emergency beacon that she was carrying. This is a French rescue team. There is definitely luck involved but this is also a whole safety system used properly and working well. Hard work and intelligence kept this woman and her friend alive.
I feel like I am going insane. Why are so many saying this? She thought about herself first. "Help me. Help me. Help me." Only after she was safe herself did she consider her friend. I am not saying that makes her a bad person but it doesn't make her a good one or an exceptional one in any way....
@@redblue5140 you have to be saved first before you can help anyone else, she couldn’t breathe being packed under snow. It’s traumatic and she must have been in shock. When she realized she was going to be okay, she kept repeating to find her friend. It’s not like she forget about them.
@@icturner23well of course she was on the verge of death from suffocation under snow, she couldn't think straight. Only after she saw that she could breathe again and people were helping could she get her bearings back as most people would.
From experience as a male i got flowers. The other times got nothing. Will step up every time i can and able to no matter what. It would be a relief if i could choose the reward, i never wanted flowers in my life. I however would appreciate help for food and rent. But even to desire a monetary reward is tabu, so i bet this will stir up a few people that dont get it.
Did 2 mins of research., rather than reading comments... “We were the first on site and immediately started to do the beacon research. “We quickly found the first one, second one was 70m down the face and quickly rescued as well. "There were no reported deaths as a result of the avalanche"
I think it's really cool that even though she was just in a really traumatic and life-threatening situation after she took a few breaths she almost immediately got over the panic and started asking about her friend.
@@GlockTuah1017 it's called being human. She could've died and was worried about her friend's life. I also don't think you know the definition of the word which is "sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior." Where exactly did she exhibit uncontrollable or wildly thinking behavior? I smell a rojo 💊 popping incel...
You don’t freeze the insulation of the snow and their clothes creates a thermal barrier and keeps them warm. It’s the compression and lack of oxygen that does it
To anyone reading this, Jesus Christ Loves you so much that HE died for you all to save you all from eternal death and suffering. And HES calling you all to a relationship with HIM. All you need to do is to Believe in HIM with all of your Heart that HE died for all of youre sins meaning (past,present,future sins) and believe that HE rose again on the Third Day then you will be saved. Does that mean that i can now do anything i want, no. When you are now saved in Jesus Christ, you are now renewed in HIM meaning your old self (sins, darkness, lusts) are all gone For Jesus Christ has now renewed you and when you are now saved, you start a relationship with HIM, so that you may know HIM more and know about HIS words and commands which are in the BIBLE and aswell most importantly you can apply GODS words into your Life and Make GODS words your lamp to your feet and to your path and your guidance on How to Live life. And some might say i need to be clean (sinless) to come to Jesus Christ but thats not the Case, Because GOD Himself when you come to HIM will transform you and renew you, but does that mean that i will not sin again?, no but thats why you need to have full total Faith in GOD so that you will not sin against HIM and you will be all set.

_Even in that moment of distress she was worried about her friend , not many people in today's world are like that who will care so much about their friend or even could appreciate her doing that_ ❤❤
Думаю, что вы неправы. Даже если бы это была не её подруга, а просто незнакомый человек, который находился в этот момент рядом, она бы все равно кричала что-то вроде "спасите человека, он где-то здесь". Это элементарное сочувствие, которое присуще человеческой особи, тем более что лично от неё ничего не требовалось. То есть причин для выбора спасать или не спасать не было.
@@katamaran55No. In stress and panic, a lot of people revert to pure self-preservation and don't give a damn for others. They push others out of the way, they only cry about themselves. That she immediately asked for her fried after she could breathe again, shows her character.
I think they're saying that they're not just regular people the way that it was sort of click baited- you also have to pay for this rescue. It's not free you will be charged, but did your friend get found?
Did the friend get found???? Where they charged & how much??? I know if you fall in a crevasse you have to pay the rescue team... not sure about avalanches -
Never heard of someone having to pay a rescue team 🤔 maybe if your family hires a private team but here in America you most certainly don't have to pay to be rescued! What if you don't have the $ and how does that work? Do they say before bringing you back you have to pay x amount or they leave you? Do you telepathically sign a contract before they come for you? Do that take your back if you don't pay your bill? I mean seriously that makes zero sense
That avalanche airbag she has behind her head made all the difference in her rescue. It elevates you above the snow more meaning you won’t get buried 40+ feet beneath. Also wearing as many recon beacons as possible helps in locating you. That’s what you’re hearing with all the beeps
Non-skiier here. I've seen those airbags but may I ask a naive question? What causes them to inflate? Im.assuming there is a sensor of some type, but at what point does it go off?
Wow!! Yeah when I was 18 I traveled from my home in Hawaii to go on a trip with my girlfriend to Switzerland, Austria and Italy. This was in 1980, to visit and stay with my friend in Verbier Switzerland. He had a chalet up there in the alps and asking shop called Mountain Air. It was so completely different from skiing in the Rockies in Colorado because there were no rope barriers or warning signs not to ski out of bounds. It was awesome skiing but avalanche danger was pretty spooky in a lot of places! I remember being in Saint anton. Austria skiing in thr Tyrol alps having the most incredible time of my life. We stayed in this building- pension (?) at the base of the slopes, and about 3 years later, I saw on TV news that same place destroyed by an avalanche and people had died!!! I was of course sad for the people who lost their lives, and the wonderful Austrians who I just loved, but it scared me!!! We spent about 2&1/2 months in all these amazing and beautiful places skiing and immersed in the culture and language and oh my goodness the food!!!! The best!!! The Berner oberland the Jungfrau region in the Swiss alps was one of the most incredible places I've ever seen or been to in my life!!!!! We stayed in interlaken between lake thun and spiel and it snowed all night. When we awoke early the next morning, we took the small cog train ride up into the Jungfrau and the weather was bluebird skies and no wind and a fresh two feet of powder snow covered everything! It was beautiful and the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau peaks were magnificent, spectacular!!! The whole area, was like being in a fantasy world, a winter wonderland landscape that had me in complete awe!!!!! For the first two days up there, we just went sightseeing taking the cog trains and gondola and I was a young pro photographer and I wanted to shoot everything I could so we didn't ski till the third day. I remember places like the 007 Piz Gloria restaurant that was far above Wengen and Lauterburin and Murin. I think the Schilthorn(?) I mean at 18 and from Hawaii, we were in the most amazing place!!!!! I consider the Jungfrau to be one of the 7 wonders of the world. And where I live we have the Na pali coast on the island of Kauai and the Jungfrau is as awesome!!!!!! Best trip of my life!! Back in 1980 few people that age traveled that far especially from Hawaii, and then by ourselves and for almost 3 months!! We took trains rented a car for a month and stayed in incredible places!!! The entire trip plus airfare for that long, and back home I did for $6,000.00 US!!!!!! I had just finished high school and saved the money and planned the whole thing when a friend invited us to come stay up in Verbier Switzerland with him! I had met him only about 6 months earlier as he was my girlfriends friends brother! They we're dual U.S-Swiss citizens. I took the two brothers out to my families beach house on the windward side of Oahu Island and because they were dive certified, I invited them to come stay with me and took them out on my small Boston whaler boat to go scuba diving and they were completely blown away!!!! I grabbed huge lobsters and speared some really good eating fish and took them swimming and diving with dolphins and humpback whales and we had feasts each night!!!! Just did what we do in Hawaii, shared the spirit of Aloha with them!!!!!! So my new friend casually invited me to come visit and stay with him in the Swiss alps in Verbier!!!! I remember saying "are you sure?" because if so I will definitely come!!!! We'll, that turned in to the best trip of my life!!!!! I fell in love with Europe and the languages and culture and wow!!!! the food and wine and beer!!!! Like I said few people just took off and did something like that at age18 back then!! Especially coming from Hawaii it was quite a flight and we'll, it also was really uncrowded back then and I just went for it!!!! Most snow I've ever seen, and I went to college in Colorado and skied in the rockies a lot, was up in the Swiss Alps in Verbier when it snowed non stop and in a few days it had literally snowed 15 feet of powder, burying my friend chalet and most everything up there!!! I was powder skiing in 5- 6 feet of fresh powder and the snow was literally going over my girlfriends head!!!! They used to wear snorkels back in those days to ski deep powder!!!! Really!!!! I had heard about it!!! Verbier is world famous and legendary for skiing and huge snowfall amounts!!! An amazing experience for a surfer and Hawaiian waterman born and raised in Hawaii!!!!! A winter wonderland!!!!!! The trip of a lifetime!!!!! Dolomite alps in Italy, the Austrian Tyrolean alps, we skied the famous St. Moritz!!!!!! I mean I was 18!!! I wasn't from a super wealthy family but my parents did well, but I paid for everything for my girlfriend and I from my own hard work and seriously I considered staying and just living there!!!! But my island ties and life were too strong though I continued traveling and especially in Europe extensively over the years!!! But when I saw that place I stayed in St. Anton Austria buried by Avalanche about a Year later after that trip, I was pretty shocked!!! Remember skiing in the alps that first trip and being super quiet and careful not to trigger an avalanche in many places and it was really different from the rockies. Just anyone could ski out of bounds and many dud, and it was really dangerous sometimes!! Ski rescue guys are legendary over there!!! Respect!!!! Aloha from Hawaii Don Libbey
So why she all getting in a state when she chose to go there and dance with death At her own accord? All the fairy tales fantasies seems to have discombobulated some people's brain 🙄
I was a paramedic before, and did some rescue in the french alps. The fact they found them alive and unhurt is very lucky. Also the snowboarder who rescued them was super well equipped, things we didn’t have 20 years ago. It’s a blessing to have people like this guy nowadays!

Yea it's perfectly normal. I doubt if anyone wouldn't say the same thing? She's a privileged fool going off piste without the correct gear and also what about anyone?? Why just my fwiends 🙄
It's trippy how true that is - if he matched her energy level and tried to calm her with a bunch of soothing, she might have spiraled into emotions. His lack of emotion kept her stable, who knows if any of that was conscious to any of them
@@rickeykoga2312the guy was french and at one point in the video you can see him point at the snow and say something to his friends. He is actually telling them "I got this one, start searching for someone else". My theory is that when she start saying "find my friend" he knew they were already searching and he probably struggled to find the right words to tell her that as he was trying to get her out as fast as possible.
@@emreyldz4324 maybe getting her out of the snow and getting her warm is the first priority ? if i was in that situation i don't know if i'd be in the mood for a little chat.
@@kjurpjdpihe9096exactement il a dit mettais vos dva et partais cherchez sont amies...et sa collègue a dit cherchez aussi en haut... voilà :) je suis français..
These people are so underrated. It is so difficult actually finding people once they are buried and the amount of stress and guilt these people go through when it’s not their fault is so immense. You guys are true hero’s and I thank you as a snowboarder
They had beacons. He literally pulls it out before they start digging for her. He knew exactly where she was because of the equipment they use. It wasn't luck. This is also a rescue team, not just random snowboarders
@@satan4hireif you were in the same situation, you would probably react the same way. She was in shock. As soon as she got a breath or two of air she could begin to think normally again.
Why do you people act like you wouldn't do this if you were in this situation? So many people are like "wowwww she's so selfless" My god of course you're going to be worried about your friend who is potentially dying. Wtf?
Oh bless her and everyone who stopped and made that rescue their number one priority! This is why bad things happen on earth, because it shows us what we could all be doing on a daily basis.
Et merci à l'équipe de secours français qui mettent leurs vies 5 à 6 fois par jours pendant la saisons touristique..force et respect à eux et à leurs familles.
Rescuers are a different breed of human for sure. By snow, sea, fire, or land, the fact that there are people out there whose life’s work is to save people is just incredible.
These aren't rescuers they are folks enjoying the snow but also prepared to find and dig out an avalanche victim. If you had to wait for true first responders the buried victims would die.
If you are a passionated skier you should get yourself a training. You can book it and I can recommend it especially when you often go for powder. It's a good feeling to be a little bit prepared and you can immediately help of you ever get in a situation like this.
This is my very good friend Emma, she's an amazing snowboarder, has lived in Verbier for years and knows this terrain like the back of her hand. She was very brave and lucky that day

Wow. I can’t even fathom how helpless you must feel being stuck like that buried under the snow! From an avalanche that gave you no time to prepare to protect yourself from it. I’m so glad that the woman and her friend were rescued by these amazing people who put their lives on the line to help save others. Absolute heroism, I can only imagine what a desperate feeling it is to have no idea where your partner/friend may be and if they were also safe.
@@chrismaples8419 @chrismaples8419 yea, except with either of those, it would be more drawn out, and you MIGHT be able to escape somehow. An avalanche would just render you instantaneously unable to move - drowning in heavy, cold, wet snow. 😬🥶😳
It's not only scary it's the fact that you're helpless and can't help yourself at all especially if your mouth gets packed with snow there's all kinds of precautionary measures that should be implemented before people should be allowed freely to go skiing or snowboarding and number one is having a rescue Beacon no matter what that should be a law or rule for doing this kind of Recreation and you can see why in this video the two skiers did everything right
This just shows you how important having the proper equipment is. Without the airbag to keep her from getting buried further, and the beacon which allowed them to locate her it could have gone much worse.
True heroes. Risking themselves for others. People like this are why there IS HOPE for the future of humanity. We just need to raise our children to be more caring and brave like this.
That insane to literally be buried alive in a freaking avalanche then be found and dug out!! Alive!! ❤❤❤ You all are angels for doing such things and saving peoples lives. Fantastic!!!
I just read a thriller featuring snowboarders so I’m clearly an expert now. They wear transceivers. So you can pinpoint their location and know where to dig. At least that’s what I assume they used. I’m no expert. I only read one thriller book a few days ago. 😂
No we don't. She did what Amy stranger would. She waited until she was safe and THEN told them about her friend. She simply did what any decent person would do.
@@steevehoyoufat9155 I almost drowned once. The part where she was saying, “Help me, help me...” was delirium setting in. I did the same when I almost drowned. She snapped out of it and then immediately started asking for her friend. I’d be happy to have a friend like her.
We should all wish to have the selflessness of all the individual's involved here. From the woman more worried about her friend than herself, too the rescuers risking their lives to save others!! Fantastic!!
@@icturner23it's called shock and once she snapped out of it n realized she was gonna survive she wanted her friend to be found. She was letting the rescuers there was another person in the snow. She did awesome in a stressful dangerous situation
It makes sense to me. Once she could breathe and realised she was safe it would be the next thing you think about. She didn't know if they knew there was another person so she wanted to tell them.
@@icturner23I actually wonder how aware of the real world people like you are... Shock, stress, cold, panic... all play a part as her face is initially freed from the snow.
especially when trying to hold back that ugly cry, that touches your soul? my eyes are literally pouring nonstop tears right now #FaithInHumainty "Find My Friend, Ninkaaa" and they instantly went to work
Calm down. Y'all are making it seem more than what it actually was. She waited until after she knew she was safe to tell them to help her friend. She kept saying "help me" even while they were helping her. Her friend was after an thought.
@@steevehoyoufat9155uhm of course she asked for help first she has to be alive to check on her friend?? And “she kept saying help me even while they were helping her” yeah it was annoying but it’s natural. It’s called shock. It’s very obvious you’ve never had a near death experience or been around anyone while they’re dying. I’m grateful you haven’t.
@@steevehoyoufat9155 bang on my thought too all she wanted was them to help her and when she knew she was grand asked about her friend people here are dump .
@@spencereng yes I agree, but theres people who dont want to cough up 600$ for a backpack. Like I just said, an avy bag is for your own safety. A beacon is for you and everyone else.
You must work for a beacon company. They don’t save lives, having someone on the other end is what saves lives! An inflatable vest, like the lady who loved has on is an actual meaningful measure...idiot!
@@Chihuahuauno1 avy bags do indeed help, however alot of the times the person with a bag that gets buried still ends up in a spot where if there wasnt anyone else around, they would die. As far as chances of survival, statistically beacons have a 31% higher rate of survival vs a person who only has an avy bag.. idiot
Always brings a tear to my eye seeing heroes like them save someone who likely only had a handful of minutes left before the reaper knocks. God bless you guys for saving them, wish I saw footage of the second person being saved.
I've been on several rescues turned recovery. This person is lucky as hell. Believe it or not it's always scary digging also because last thing you want to find is a dead individual.
It’s gotta be a hell of a thing slowly suffocating in the freezing silent dark contemplating all of your life’s choices that led up to this very moment of impending death, only to hear rescuers nearby wondering if they will ever find you and then a sudden crack of light and fresh air whooshing over your face and salvation.
Maybe a passionate, articulate expression of something, but to claim the person must be an author is to assume you must think articulate communication is some sort of unusually exceptional witchcraft, to be marveled at by the rest of us with fully gaped mouths. The man is expressing himself, not flying around the room on a broomstick. 😂 (Also yes, they probably could be a writer, just simping.)
She did have proper gear. That orange thing behind her kept her from getting burried super deep in the snow. The organe pack also helps other's to locate them.
My daughter was caught in an avalanche once. It was terrifying. Luckily she carried a beacon but ended up near the top of the snow when she stopped. Her boyfriend had to dig her out. He wasn’t caught in it and obviously it was horrifying for him. They are both now well trained in a avalanches and rescues.
Всем привет. Разве этот экстрим стоит того чтобы рисковать жизнью ?. Спасибо спасателям что помогли и нашли людей. Молодцы. Берегите себя друзья. Кто бы где бы не был.
Nature can be deceptive. Another group of skiers was assured the slope was stable… and a massive slab avalanche started! One guy tried to get out of the way, as another avalanche began. He was able to activate his rescue beacon, and managed to not panic in the tumbling of the slide. He was found, and dug out, as were his friends. They were sure the mountain wanted to say, “I am still the more powerful one here. I let you go this time.”
@@Town_Country96 I don’t call people cringe G you’ve also probably never been skiing or snow boarding in your life so Go be Goofy somewhere else let the athletes talk Buddy
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, Against the day of battle and war? Job 38:22-23
What a selfless act! For her to be that cold, immobile and scared, that she cared more about her friends being found than them finishing digging her out! This woman is a hero!
Thank you for rescuing the trapped skiers/snowboarders! Thank you to the rescuers who always step up! These rescuers are amazing! They do this because they understand how important their jobs are! Thank you for sharing the video of this rescue! Thank you for saving these people!
Such a kind lady to be going thru such a dramatic event and ask for her friend and keeps saying thank you. Just proves you don't have to be a prick during tough times.❤
She had on an avalanche life vest which is why she was so close to the surface. Its just she couldn't clear the snow from her face and was worried about her friend.
@@sturlajonsson8992 The vest should expand right away as they are falling. Then after the snow comes to a standstill, it should deflate to form a cavity. Just enough to breathe.
@@JayZoop that cavity cannot hold much air though... Is there a gas exchange still through the snow to the surface? I guess definitely not with wet snow. Ok getting claustrophobic at those thoughts :D
Thank whatever stars lined up the way they did that day cause those angels were there for you at the time you needed them most! God bless!❤ Glasgow Scotland 🏴
You help restore my faith in humanity. These are good people helping those in need. I hope all 3 people you rescued are ok with no lasting problems. Thank you for being who you are. Happy New Year
The fact that as soon as her face was under covered she immediately wanted them to stop saving her and make sure her friend is okay. That’s true love ❤
@@emergeblade2796exactly what the f is wrong with these people. Plus I don't know one person even some of the most disgusting people in the world who wouldn't ask about their friend. like they would just get up and not mention their friend and just go home. I would say maybe strangers, but even the worst people would acknowledge their friend. This is all over praising and virtue signaling
The snowboarder who is filming is Victor Liebenguth. They found her friend about 70 meters away and after this rescue a second avalanche hit on the face of the mountain and trapped a third person that they rescued as well. Everyone made it off the mountain face alive
Thank you for posting a follow up

Idiot, she was safe already

Not just luck, precaution. You can see she has an inflatable pack that helped keep her more bouyant during the avalanche, and they tracked her location with an emergency beacon that she was carrying. This is a French rescue team.
There is definitely luck involved but this is also a whole safety system used properly and working well. Hard work and intelligence kept this woman and her friend alive.

I feel like I am going insane. Why are so many saying this? She thought about herself first. "Help me. Help me. Help me." Only after she was safe herself did she consider her friend. I am not saying that makes her a bad person but it doesn't make her a good one or an exceptional one in any way....
@@redblue5140 yeah. I realized this after I sent the message. Sorry. You are right
She Said help me Five hundred Times Before
@@redblue5140 I am with you on that one and it makes me feel like I am going insane as well..!
@@redblue5140 you have to be saved first before you can help anyone else, she couldn’t breathe being packed under snow. It’s traumatic and she must have been in shock. When she realized she was going to be okay, she kept repeating to find her friend. It’s not like she forget about them.
The fact that she started yelling save her friend. That almost made me cry
Eventually, after saying “Help me” ten times when that was exactly what they were already doing.
@@icturner23she was in shock and probably shaken. I'd be repeating things over and over again too in her situation
@@KylaGraceu r correct
@@icturner23I imagine she was in shock and extremely disoriented. After all she just faced death and survived.❤🎉
@@icturner23well of course she was on the verge of death from suffocation under snow, she couldn't think straight. Only after she saw that she could breathe again and people were helping could she get her bearings back as most people would.
You can never thank someone enough who either has saved your life or even helped you
So what about the one who gave you life for free
@@pawiischannel3931 you on about God or people who have saved your life?
From experience as a male i got flowers.
The other times got nothing.
Will step up every time i can and able to no matter what.
It would be a relief if i could choose the reward, i never wanted flowers in my life. I however would appreciate help for food and rent. But even to desire a monetary reward is tabu, so i bet this will stir up a few people that dont get it.
@@pawiischannel3931 yes ,I did thank my parents for bring me into the world of ours

“We were the first on site and immediately started to do the beacon research.
“We quickly found the first one, second one was 70m down the face and quickly rescued as well.

Where exactly did she exhibit uncontrollable or wildly thinking behavior? I smell a rojo 💊 popping incel...
The fact that she was nearly frozen and remembered to say find my friend is a strong person. This literally had me in tears!
Frozen is not really the issue.
It’s suffocating
You don’t freeze the insulation of the snow and their clothes creates a thermal barrier and keeps them warm. It’s the compression and lack of oxygen that does it
Same here
Nearly frozen? Are you a clown? If she wouldve been "Nearly frozen" aa you say then she wouldn't act so calm
This had you in tears? 😂 the world is full of weak people
"Find my friend" how many people got a friend like this ❤ Bless you guys

Does that mean that i can now do anything i want, no. When you are now saved in Jesus Christ, you are now renewed in HIM meaning your old self (sins, darkness, lusts) are all gone For Jesus Christ has now renewed you and when you are now saved, you start a relationship with HIM, so that you may know HIM more and know about HIS words and commands which are in the BIBLE and aswell most importantly you can apply GODS words into your Life and Make GODS words your lamp to your feet and to your path and your guidance on How to Live life. And some might say i need to be clean (sinless) to come to Jesus Christ but thats not the Case, Because GOD Himself when you come to HIM will transform you and renew you, but does that mean that i will not sin again?, no but thats why you need to have full total Faith in GOD so that you will not sin against HIM and you will be all set.

_Even in that moment of distress she was worried about her friend , not many people in today's world are like that who will care so much about their friend or even could appreciate her doing that_ ❤❤
А я вот даже не понимаю а как по-другому то? 😳
Думаю, что вы неправы. Даже если бы это была не её подруга, а просто незнакомый человек, который находился в этот момент рядом, она бы все равно кричала что-то вроде "спасите человека, он где-то здесь". Это элементарное сочувствие, которое присуще человеческой особи, тем более что лично от неё ничего не требовалось. То есть причин для выбора спасать или не спасать не было.
@@katamaran55No. In stress and panic, a lot of people revert to pure self-preservation and don't give a damn for others. They push others out of the way, they only cry about themselves.
That she immediately asked for her fried after she could breathe again, shows her character.
That's not just snowboarders, that's a full french rescue team lmao 🤝
That’s how it’s supposed to work out there, the more experienced you are the more you’re looking out for other people
They made me proud to be 1/4 French today ❤
I think they're saying that they're not just regular people the way that it was sort of click baited- you also have to pay for this rescue. It's not free you will be charged, but did your friend get found?
Did the friend get found???? Where they charged & how much??? I know if you fall in a crevasse you have to pay the rescue team... not sure about avalanches -
Never heard of someone having to pay a rescue team 🤔 maybe if your family hires a private team but here in America you most certainly don't have to pay to be rescued! What if you don't have the $ and how does that work? Do they say before bringing you back you have to pay x amount or they leave you? Do you telepathically sign a contract before they come for you? Do that take your back if you don't pay your bill? I mean seriously that makes zero sense
That avalanche airbag she has behind her head made all the difference in her rescue. It elevates you above the snow more meaning you won’t get buried 40+ feet beneath. Also wearing as many recon beacons as possible helps in locating you. That’s what you’re hearing with all the beeps
Non-skiier here. I've seen those airbags but may I ask a naive question? What causes them to inflate? Im.assuming there is a sensor of some type, but at what point does it go off?

Wow!! Yeah when I was 18 I traveled from my home in Hawaii to go on a trip with my girlfriend to Switzerland, Austria and Italy. This was in 1980, to visit and stay with my friend in Verbier Switzerland. He had a chalet up there in the alps and asking shop called Mountain Air. It was so completely different from skiing in the Rockies in Colorado because there were no rope barriers or warning signs not to ski out of bounds. It was awesome skiing but avalanche danger was pretty spooky in a lot of places! I remember being in Saint anton. Austria skiing in thr Tyrol alps having the most incredible time of my life. We stayed in this building- pension (?) at the base of the slopes, and about 3 years later, I saw on TV news that same place destroyed by an avalanche and people had died!!! I was of course sad for the people who lost their lives, and the wonderful Austrians who I just loved, but it scared me!!! We spent about 2&1/2 months in all these amazing and beautiful places skiing and immersed in the culture and language and oh my goodness the food!!!! The best!!! The Berner oberland the Jungfrau region in the Swiss alps was one of the most incredible places I've ever seen or been to in my life!!!!! We stayed in interlaken between lake thun and spiel and it snowed all night. When we awoke early the next morning, we took the small cog train ride up into the Jungfrau and the weather was bluebird skies and no wind and a fresh two feet of powder snow covered everything! It was beautiful and the Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau peaks were magnificent, spectacular!!! The whole area, was like being in a fantasy world, a winter wonderland landscape that had me in complete awe!!!!! For the first two days up there, we just went sightseeing taking the cog trains and gondola and I was a young pro photographer and I wanted to shoot everything I could so we didn't ski till the third day. I remember places like the 007 Piz Gloria restaurant that was far above Wengen and Lauterburin and Murin. I think the Schilthorn(?) I mean at 18 and from Hawaii, we were in the most amazing place!!!!! I consider the Jungfrau to be one of the 7 wonders of the world. And where I live we have the Na pali coast on the island of Kauai and the Jungfrau is as awesome!!!!!! Best trip of my life!! Back in 1980 few people that age traveled that far especially from Hawaii, and then by ourselves and for almost 3 months!! We took trains rented a car for a month and stayed in incredible places!!! The entire trip plus airfare for that long, and back home I did for $6,000.00 US!!!!!! I had just finished high school and saved the money and planned the whole thing when a friend invited us to come stay up in Verbier Switzerland with him! I had met him only about 6 months earlier as he was my girlfriends friends brother! They we're dual U.S-Swiss citizens. I took the two brothers out to my families beach house on the windward side of Oahu Island and because they were dive certified, I invited them to come stay with me and took them out on my small Boston whaler boat to go scuba diving and they were completely blown away!!!! I grabbed huge lobsters and speared some really good eating fish and took them swimming and diving with dolphins and humpback whales and we had feasts each night!!!! Just did what we do in Hawaii, shared the spirit of Aloha with them!!!!!! So my new friend casually invited me to come visit and stay with him in the Swiss alps in Verbier!!!! I remember saying "are you sure?" because if so I will definitely come!!!! We'll, that turned in to the best trip of my life!!!!! I fell in love with Europe and the languages and culture and wow!!!! the food and wine and beer!!!! Like I said few people just took off and did something like that at age18 back then!! Especially coming from Hawaii it was quite a flight and we'll, it also was really uncrowded back then and I just went for it!!!! Most snow I've ever seen, and I went to college in Colorado and skied in the rockies a lot, was up in the Swiss Alps in Verbier when it snowed non stop and in a few days it had literally snowed 15 feet of powder, burying my friend chalet and most everything up there!!! I was powder skiing in 5- 6 feet of fresh powder and the snow was literally going over my girlfriends head!!!! They used to wear snorkels back in those days to ski deep powder!!!! Really!!!! I had heard about it!!! Verbier is world famous and legendary for skiing and huge snowfall amounts!!! An amazing experience for a surfer and Hawaiian waterman born and raised in Hawaii!!!!! A winter wonderland!!!!!! The trip of a lifetime!!!!! Dolomite alps in Italy, the Austrian Tyrolean alps, we skied the famous St. Moritz!!!!!! I mean I was 18!!! I wasn't from a super wealthy family but my parents did well, but I paid for everything for my girlfriend and I from my own hard work and seriously I considered staying and just living there!!!! But my island ties and life were too strong though I continued traveling and especially in Europe extensively over the years!!! But when I saw that place I stayed in St. Anton Austria buried by Avalanche about a Year later after that trip, I was pretty shocked!!! Remember skiing in the alps that first trip and being super quiet and careful not to trigger an avalanche in many places and it was really different from the rockies. Just anyone could ski out of bounds and many dud, and it was really dangerous sometimes!! Ski rescue guys are legendary over there!!! Respect!!!!

Her rescuer has a calming voice.
It's trippy how true that is - if he matched her energy level and tried to calm her with a bunch of soothing, she might have spiraled into emotions. His lack of emotion kept her stable, who knows if any of that was conscious to any of them
@@rickeykoga2312the guy was french and at one point in the video you can see him point at the snow and say something to his friends. He is actually telling them "I got this one, start searching for someone else".

These people are so underrated. It is so difficult actually finding people once they are buried and the amount of stress and guilt these people go through when it’s not their fault is so immense. You guys are true hero’s and I thank you as a snowboarder
Apparently, these snowboarders were wearing beacons and inflatable avalanche vests to make them much easier to find and rescue.
They had beacons. He literally pulls it out before they start digging for her. He knew exactly where she was because of the equipment they use. It wasn't luck. This is also a rescue team, not just random snowboarders
They were wearing beacons. They were lucky that other people were well equipped as well though

I always say that first responders of all types are the real super heroes. Not these over paid puppet entertainers like athletes and actors.
Agreed. @@Frantheman-ub5np
These aren't rescuers they are folks enjoying the snow but also prepared to find and dig out an avalanche victim.
If you had to wait for true first responders the buried victims would die.
If you are a passionated skier you should get yourself a training. You can book it and I can recommend it especially when you often go for powder. It's a good feeling to be a little bit prepared and you can immediately help of you ever get in a situation like this.

It's not only scary it's the fact that you're helpless and can't help yourself at all especially if your mouth gets packed with snow there's all kinds of precautionary measures that should be implemented before people should be allowed freely to go skiing or snowboarding and number one is having a rescue Beacon no matter what that should be a law or rule for doing this kind of Recreation and you can see why in this video the two skiers did everything right
@asteroid2691 lol you can go to any little bunny hill. I'm sure you'd be safe there 😅🥰
This just shows you how important having the proper equipment is. Without the airbag to keep her from getting buried further, and the beacon which allowed them to locate her it could have gone much worse.

Well done People
I truly admire Rescue Personal, thanks to everybody who have the courage to help others in need 🙏🏼😘
That’s the kind of person you want as a friend for sure. ❤ Did they find the friend? 🥺
That's what I'm wondering.
@@80bbygrl right, what happened!? I need details…
Yes they did her friend.
She's a good friend
@@SublimeThinker for sure ❤️
I cried, always touches me dearly to see humans caring about other humans!! Thank you for sharing 🙏💞
Me too!! The powerful love for a friend. This is what Jesus tells us, to love our “neighbors” , but in her case, it is her friend. ✝️🙏🏻
These boys are true angels :)
especially when trying to hold back that ugly cry, that touches your soul? my eyes are literally pouring nonstop tears right now #FaithInHumainty "Find My Friend, Ninkaaa" and they instantly went to work
My heart!!! That sweet woman was so insistent they find her friend.
Calm down. Y'all are making it seem more than what it actually was. She waited until after she knew she was safe to tell them to help her friend. She kept saying "help me" even while they were helping her. Her friend was after an thought.
@@steevehoyoufat9155uhm of course she asked for help first she has to be alive to check on her friend?? And “she kept saying help me even while they were helping her” yeah it was annoying but it’s natural. It’s called shock. It’s very obvious you’ve never had a near death experience or been around anyone while they’re dying. I’m grateful you haven’t.
@@steevehoyoufat9155 More like you calm down, mr sunshine
@@steevehoyoufat9155 bang on my thought too all she wanted was them to help her and when she knew she was grand asked about her friend people here are dump .
Asking for them to help save her friend should be a natural response, please don't make this gesture somehow the most noble act ever..
Dumb
Très bon travail!!!! Très professionnel!!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Merci!!! Cela fait plaisir voir comment sont aidés ses personnes et sauvées par vous!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💓💓💓
Beacons save lives. Don't go into the backcountry without one.
I wont go sledding with people who dont have at least a beacon, shovel and a probe. The beacon is for everyone's safety. Not just your own.
I've seen enough videos to say an airbag is equally as important if you want the best shot of not getting buried.
@@spencereng yes I agree, but theres people who dont want to cough up 600$ for a backpack. Like I just said, an avy bag is for your own safety. A beacon is for you and everyone else.
You must work for a beacon company. They don’t save lives, having someone on the other end is what saves lives! An inflatable vest, like the lady who loved has on is an actual meaningful measure...idiot!
@@Chihuahuauno1 avy bags do indeed help, however alot of the times the person with a bag that gets buried still ends up in a spot where if there wasnt anyone else around, they would die. As far as chances of survival, statistically beacons have a 31% higher rate of survival vs a person who only has an avy bag.. idiot
Always brings a tear to my eye seeing heroes like them save someone who likely only had a handful of minutes left before the reaper knocks. God bless you guys for saving them, wish I saw footage of the second person being saved.
I’m wondering if the second person was saved though these guys worked quick and lots of beeps going off but cold moves quick too
What a skill to have. Nerves of steel. That is impressive. I wish I could save lives like this. Much respect to him and his crew.
Thank the Lord that all survived with the rescuers extraordinary assistance ❤
I've been on several rescues turned recovery. This person is lucky as hell. Believe it or not it's always scary digging also because last thing you want to find is a dead individual.
Nice to see responders so diligent and efficient. You were all fantastic. A life saved for sure.
It’s gotta be a hell of a thing slowly suffocating in the freezing silent dark contemplating all of your life’s choices that led up to this very moment of impending death, only to hear rescuers nearby wondering if they will ever find you and then a sudden crack of light and fresh air whooshing over your face and salvation.
U are definitely an author
No doubt.
Probably not the worst way to go IMO.
Maybe a passionate, articulate expression of something, but to claim the person must be an author is to assume you must think articulate communication is some sort of unusually exceptional witchcraft, to be marveled at by the rest of us with fully gaped mouths. The man is expressing himself, not flying around the room on a broomstick. 😂 (Also yes, they probably could be a writer, just simping.)
@@nateTheNomad23😂man...lmbaoooo ‼️
❤️The whole time she was like, “ my friend “ “I’m fine.. my friend” selfless ❤
What a cool tool to find them under the snow! She was so concerned about her friends. I am glad she survived. Love to all who helped here!
Truly shows how important that safety equipment is, trackers, inflators etc
What are inflators?? I don't snowboard
@@vickythefist7062 it’s the big orange thing, it inflates 😂 kinda like a life jacket for the snow.
“Did you find my friend”- what a lovely lady
*A friend in need is a friend indeed!. I mean the people who rescued her!* ❤
Brought tears to my eyes ❤️ a friend for life.
😘
This is why having proper avalanche gear always is good. Saved lives that day being prepared
Best proper avalanche gear is to listen avalanche warnings.
She did have proper gear. That orange thing behind her kept her from getting burried super deep in the snow. The organe pack also helps other's to locate them.
For her to be 90% buried yelling find "my friend" ❤ If only we all had friends like her.
She yelled help 15497 times. Once she realised she is ok, she asked for friend. So dont kid yourself.
Respect for great teamwork and be grateful for God's blessings🙏❤
My daughter was caught in an avalanche once. It was terrifying. Luckily she carried a beacon but ended up near the top of the snow when she stopped. Her boyfriend had to dig her out. He wasn’t caught in it and obviously it was horrifying for him. They are both now well trained in a avalanches and rescues.
the way he says "it's all right" is so reassuring it makes me want to have him as a second dad
The care she has for her friend over herself shows what an amazing person she truly is. Glad they all made it out safe.
I've always wanted to be some type of rescue person. I have such HIGH respect for them. Nobody thinks of them until they need them.
What a sweet person asking for her friends to be found with her first breaths.
Great job rescuers
Help me was actually her first 10 words. Then find me friend.
@@ruger8412incel 🤡
Всем привет. Разве этот экстрим стоит того чтобы рисковать жизнью ?. Спасибо спасателям что помогли и нашли людей. Молодцы. Берегите себя друзья. Кто бы где бы не был.
Nature can be deceptive.
Another group of skiers was assured the slope was stable… and a massive slab avalanche started! One guy tried to get out of the way, as another avalanche began. He was able to activate his rescue beacon, and managed to not panic in the tumbling of the slide. He was found, and dug out, as were his friends. They were sure the mountain wanted to say, “I am still the more powerful one here. I let you go this time.”
Это не спасатели, а сноубордисты
These snowboarders are a true miracle and blessing! The woman being concerned about her friend while trapped was proof good people still exist! 🙏
Even in that situation she was more worried about her friend, true friendship❤❤❤
She almost died. And she says “help my friend”. It’s hard to believe now a days but there are genuinely good people out there
The Rescuers haven't finish Saving her, all she keep on saying is "Please Find my Friend". What a Humble Humanity!!!
"Save my friend, save my friend" is what she can think of. What a legend.
First words she said was help me….
Once she knew she was safe and out of immediate danger, then she started asking about her friend. Geez watch the video and stop being cringe
@@Town_Country96 it ain’t cringe G get a life
@@Maximus5775 your cringe, g
@@Town_Country96 I don’t call people cringe G you’ve also probably never been skiing or snow boarding in your life so Go be Goofy somewhere else let the athletes talk Buddy
Gracias señor que está gente vea que son un milagro tuyo señor
OMG if you needed to be reminded why an avalanche kit is worth every single penny...
Well i think if you want to go off piste for more adrenaline you should be fined if you don’t have a avalanche kit
It's pretty easy to dig yourself out of being buried by an avalanche. Every skier and snowboarder should be taught how.
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? Or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, Against the day of battle and war? Job 38:22-23
@@ayoolukoga9829 different kind of snow my friend
@@AnonymousGameWarden No, it absolutely is not fucking easy to “get yourself out”. Once that snow buries you, you aren’t even moving your thumb.
God bless the first lady that was rescued. She is the kind of friend worth having
I wish more people would be prepared like these amazing people!
This is why avalanche bags and beepers are so important
What a selfless act! For her to be that cold, immobile and scared, that she cared more about her friends being found than them finishing digging her out! This woman is a hero!
She knew she'd live and her friend was running out of time. So glad everyone was found and saved
It's incredible!! This was real rescue in front of you, their lives were saved successfully. Thank you so much for everyone involved in this incident.
Thank you for rescuing the trapped skiers/snowboarders! Thank you to the rescuers who always step up! These rescuers are amazing! They do this because they understand how important their jobs are! Thank you for sharing the video of this rescue! Thank you for saving these people!
Such a kind lady to be going thru such a dramatic event and ask for her friend and keeps saying thank you. Just proves you don't have to be a prick during tough times.❤
No you MUST be a prick in tough times. Everyone knows this.
Merci à nos secouristes Français et Suisses qui font un travail incroyable. ❤
She had on an avalanche life vest which is why she was so close to the surface. Its just she couldn't clear the snow from her face and was worried about her friend.
I'm curious why the life vest doesn't deflate after a minute to create an air pocket / snow cave.
@@JayZoop some of them do i believe
@@JayZoop snow is too dense, it would probably be dangerous if anything
@@sturlajonsson8992 The vest should expand right away as they are falling. Then after the snow comes to a standstill, it should deflate to form a cavity. Just enough to breathe.
@@JayZoop that cavity cannot hold much air though... Is there a gas exchange still through the snow to the surface? I guess definitely not with wet snow. Ok getting claustrophobic at those thoughts :D
Thank whatever stars lined up the way they did that day cause those angels were there for you at the time you needed them most! God bless!❤ Glasgow Scotland 🏴
Super French rescuers❤
Bless them all 👍
Swiss rescuers, obviously in this video, but yeah, the French do an equally great job.
They’re Swiss.
Yup, some inscriptions on the screen shows it takes place in Switzerland, in a french speaking canton.
You help restore my faith in humanity.
These are good people helping those in need. I hope all 3 people you rescued are ok with no lasting problems.
Thank you for being who you are.
Happy New Year
The fact that as soon as her face was under covered she immediately wanted them to stop saving her and make sure her friend is okay. That’s true love ❤
Fantastic rescue!! However, just like heading out into the ocean, skiing in the mountains is so risky. Getting rescued is truly a miracle.
The fact that she cared more abt her friend then herself is just amazing❤
But she didn’t…..she finally said find my friend after it hit her that SHE, herself, was safe…
Like where did you get this from😂she was saying “help ME” like 50 times before mentioning her friend
@@emergeblade2796exactly what the f is wrong with these people. Plus I don't know one person even some of the most disgusting people in the world who wouldn't ask about their friend. like they would just get up and not mention their friend and just go home. I would say maybe strangers, but even the worst people would acknowledge their friend. This is all over praising and virtue signaling
@_WitheredBonez_ I'm sure you can make the effort to write 'about' and not abt. 😉
@@thekeysman6760 honestly no i can’t
First thing she said was "find my friend!" Love this lady and her concern for her friend. ❤
You must not have watched the first half of the video lol.
Thank God for these people who help strangers in need.
What a great friend. Even in the face of death she is still concerned about her friend. Awesome imo.
But why does she ignore the plight of hommosexual special rights activists ?
@@benjurqunovwhat the hell are you yapping about that has nothing to do with this
Dude she was saved at this point right. no face of death anymore ;)
Things like this and babies smiling is the things that restores my faith in humanity
