Big difference between covered by snow with no oxygen, and a big open gap, with potentially so little loose snow on it, it actually allows a bit of airflow.
@@JelinekFS Im guessing what he ment was, theres a big difference in getting a huge air-room than being swallowed by snow. So this video doesnt really show realistic situations.

Yeeeea, just remember when you get hit by an avalanche which by the way can reach up to 300 km/h and you're thrown around like a ragdoll, be sure to create a perfect igloo to lay in as you're being crushed by snow.
One time I Was mixed in a avalanche,Not dead and I almsot Got Blown off a few Miles From the ground,I had a pocket knife and stabbed the stone......Too bad I was Slow and wasted time,Another avalanche Came and Flew me off,I went flying but I survived,I was almsot about to land safely Before the second avalanche hit me,I had a few bruises,Kinda happy I didn't end up on a bed in the hospital
Mr.PoopyButtHole 1652 No they don't. If you live in a mountainous region,then yes it could/can happen. If you live where there are no mountains,then guess what? No avalanche.
After cupping your head for oxygen spit so see which way up you are if you're upside down it goes up your nose if you are the right way up then it dribbles down your chin
+StampyFishGaming Green Even IF you are able to secure an air pocket, so what if you are upside down?? You are not able to move when you are buried in an avalanche.. So if your plan is to dig yourself out after spitting, then forget it! Your only hope is other people digging you out.
are you sure it's impossible to dig yourself out? snow can be compacted, to get your arms in a usable position you could slide them along your body. i mean i know it would be very difficult but im not sure its impossible. people say you're trapped under the weight of the snow but the snow somewhat supports it's own weight. i'm skeptical until i try it myself (burying myself in some snow, not getting buried by an avalanche)
@@descai10 this is old but I’m an avalanche professional and cannot bare to see this stupidity on the internet. Once snow has gone through the energetic event of an avalanche it becomes easier to bond together (or sinter) this creates a layer of snow that is incredibly dense. If you take all the air out of snow it just becomes water, water is heavy. The only circumstance in which you could dig yourself out is a partial burial (people have). But go walk and probe avi debris and you will realize how heavy, dense, and strong it is.
Warning: Prolonged sitting on couch in front of TV, eating chips, and drinking sugary shit may cause early death. But seriously, fuck dying in an avalanche
How to Survive a Potentially Deadly Avalanche (Episode 7) 1. Pull out your portable stove and cook some eggs. 2. Get your drink bottle out and drink. 3. change your wet and cold clothes. 4. Get your pillow out and take a nap. 5. Pull out your console and play games until you get bored. 6 Call for help.
When you stop moving try to dig a area around your chest so you have room to stretch your stomach when you breath also try to stick your hand up through the snow (just hope your fingertips reach the top) so the search and rescue can find you better
What happens when you get crushed by hundreds of tons of snow moving 200mph? I mean, I could make a little air pocket if I got buried by a snowblower. But avalanche snow pack is pretty much like concrete.
people, the space they put buddy in was only to demonstrate how ski patrol will find you. its a great way to train ski patrol too. ski patrol like to practice using other people, but they wont go all out to put the person be at risk.
Question: Why are American documentaries/tv shows so big on 'figures'? Like at the beginning of this it said "A mountain avalanche can release enough snow to fill 1300 dump trucks"... like what kind of stupid 'scientific' figure is that? I can't think of many other 'memorable' figures, but in almost every American documentary I've ever watched they seem to give some sort of weird comparison like "Longer than 25 train carriages" or "The length of 2 football fields" etc... seems kind of weird?
I believe it's to give us something to compare with we can comprehend what that number actually means. Unless your some kind of construction working or scientist working with weights, it'd be difficult for us to understand just how much that many tons are.
+Mining Forge Seems because of america mostly still uses the outdated imperial units, people that use the metric system seem to have a better idea of distances and weight because of the much easier and more convinient metric system.
+MrHat556 That's Eric's point. It's not that hard to understand mass and volume numbers. It's just not. You have pointed out the "new" America. The people who can't possibly put their brain around cubic meters, or metric tons, or any measurement other than "dump truck" and "football field". As a nation, we should be sort of embarrassed.
Best way to survive an avalanche is to know how to assess conditions, know how to travel in avalanche terrain, know when it’s safe, have adequate training, have a transceiver, shovel, and probe, and know your partners have some training, or are willing to learn. If you are going to rely on an “air pocket”, your already dead. If you plan on using your rescue equipment for anything other than practice, your partners need to find a new ski partner.
I'll be sure to ask the avalanche to stop tossing me into trees and rocks while I make a oxygen pocket. Or I'll go hulk mode move my arms in front of my face afterwards and make a pocket, I mean come on its only a few tons of snow.
Wow that was brutal, so ignore the warning signs, high point your sled and then wonder why you died? It took patrol 20mins if you look at the stats your 80% likely to be dead. Not to mention the snow boarder at the start got lucky as a large number of deaths occur my blunt force trauma from the stuff you hit on the way down the mountain at 200km/hour. If this ain't a fluff piece for your living room viewer I don't know what is.
Its for people who consider themselves hot shots or risk takers. They know their risks but they choose to go. Still it would be a blessing to get saved either way.
Yeah its all well and good having space to breath.... but if you were to get buried in an avalanche, you wouldnt... You are encased in concrete like snow. Unable to move anything, even a finger.
i saw a video where someone was under about 2 meters of snow, he said the only air pocket he had was his hands over his mouth, but on the video you see him digging a slightly bigger air pocket, so i think there is some wiggle room.
The funny thing is; they found him after 20min, but if you're in an avalanche your life expectancy will be about 15min. (80% would survive 15min, after that the statistics rapidly drops in 5min to 0%) So this man would be dead. So this team of "professionals, aren't really professional. Believe me. I made a course in switzerland about that.
Bold of y’all to assume you can move around freely in some little cocoon that you’ll 100% definitely find yourself in if you happen to be in a real avalanche
Because, if u are covered by densed packed snow, you dont want it to fall ontop of u if you got a airroom do you? Making movement and digging can risk everything falling ontop of u
I was once trapped under 14 feet of snow with a broken leg, I had a go-pro with me but it broke in the collision of the avalanche or at least it was permanently disabled
If your actually swept up by an avalanche, cover your face with your hands. Once you stop moving push your hands away from your face to create an air pocket. Spit and where the water falls lets you know whats right side up.
sounds likea good plan but in real life one might not be able to push the hands away or if so, snow will likely cover the empty area. And it will be dark and full of snow so trying to spit will be useless. What would be best is an airbag with air canisters combined with a heater and gps beacon.
just got buried in an avalanche today in the teton mountain backcountry. air pocket worked, im alive after being buried for 8 minutes. felt like getting hit by a truck.

im not sure but i think its like that so it doesnt get taken down
But abc itself is posting it and abc made the news video so i dont think so
I think it's because he earns more money with longer videos

Oh, so that's how I survive an avalanche.... Throw some bombs and don't suffocate

an avalanche basically a landslide of ice, a landslide is an avalanche of dirt
The second half of the video was my favourite
Why did they repeat the same thing twice
Longer video for ad revenue or watch time probably
so that the people in the back can hear
ikr so unprofessional. even for some regular random youtuber, this is abc news' official channel.
Not enough repeats, need more repeats!
