Skiing In First Person
If you haven’t been on a roller coaster in a while, this video should satisfy your thrill-ride needs, at least, until you do. A first-person view of a very talented skier going downhill, this video shows descents from great heights, sharp turns and dozens of how-did-he-do-that reactions, especially from those of us who might be non-skiers. The sharp turns and sudden stops and starts are especially amazing. When he’s hurtling down the hill and it looks as though he’s headed straight for a tree, he suddenly grinds to a stop and pivots right. It’s almost unbelievable. Between navigating tight crops of trees and planting perfect landings after careening off of sharp cliffs, the video has more than its fair share of excitement and suspense. Just wait for the ending: it’s a doozy.
