Watch: Amazing avalanche rescue

A backcountry skier's helmet cam captured video of his rescue from being buried alive by an avalanche.

Sometimes Mother Nature slaps the crap out of you.
 
Skier Chris Cardello was slapped down in an avalanche while in the backcountry earlier this year. His helmet cam captured his entire run, avalanche burial, and subsequent rescue five minutes later. It's not a stretch to say that it's one of the most amazing videos I've ever seen, check it out.
 
 
I bet he was buying that night in the bar.
 
 
Have a great weekend and Halloween, catch you back here on Monday.
