Canadian skier Ian McIntosh is seeing one of his less successful moments on the slopes going viral.
Though, surviving a 1,600-foot fall in Alaska’s Neacola Mountains has to be termed a success in its own right.
According to a blog post on Teton Gravity's website, McIntosh took off only to run into an unseen five foot deep trench on one of his first turns.
"From there, my slough took over and their was no way to stop, I pulled my airbag to help prevent against any possible trauma injuries as I tumbled to the bottom," he said.
Teton Gravity Research co-founder Todd Jones said the incident "was the most terrifying crash I've ever seen."
