I just in awe of that Peruvian slide. The avalanche hit a glacier, breaking the glacier free and it turned into an avalanching glacier and hit a town. Serious end of days shit.

as a matter of fact, the breast stroke saved my life in an avalanche.
the video to me was just another sensationalized expose` on avalanches that caters to weekend warrior in aspen.. i did not see it as informative or even an educational aid.
