  Look at the crevasse. It is “only” a few metres deep.

  … the skier would syill have broken a few bones if they fell in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Snow is ice. And a bunch of weird material science happens when snow gets compressed, melts a bit in the sun and freezes again (which is afaik how glaciers formed in the first place - how else did the ice get there?).

  You actually want to have an ice sheet on the slope when you go skiing. Otherwise the snow would get pushed away from the skis after a few swings and the ground wouldn’t be covered anymore (ruining the skis of the people that come after you).

  I remember a crevasse forming onthe slopes of the mountain I grew up at when I was 9, I think. Obviously, it was only about 1.5m deep, but it was a clear tear in the snow sheet and you could see the grass underneath the snow.

  Skiing on glaciers has been done since the invention of skies.

  They can more or less spontaneously form on steep, snow-covered slopes. Pretty much impossible to predict, where they form (maybe you can guess, based on the weather, but I’d be quite a guess).

  Disclaimer: I’m no snow-scientist. But I grew up in the alps and I went ski-mountaineering a bunch of times.

  Well, then good luck, finding that out.

  That pit probably wasn’t there a few weeks before. It’s not like this stuff gets puton maps.

  I’m sorry… what? O.o

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  ffs 🙄

  You don’t have to go down the same way you came up.

  Why don’t you just shut up about stuff you have no idea about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Skiing is usually used to refer to skiing on maintained ski areas downhill or cross country skiing.

  No true scotsman fallacy.

  Ski mountaineering is more like skiing than cross-country skiing. It’s quite common in the alps to do that and you almost never go on prepared tracks. The mountain where I spent my teenage winters after school doesn’t even really have an official, prepared track, because it’s too steep.

  As I said: you have no idea.

  Doing it on foreign terrain which you clearly don’t know well enough and at speed is leaving the bounds of regular skiing.

  I ain’t saying it was smart. But it’s not “extreme”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s way more liekely to be ski mountaineering. It’s quite common in the alps and you almost never go on prepared tracks when you do.

  If that’s “extreme”, then Austria is full of extreme sports folks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  And this ain’t skiing.

  Sorry to be so blunt. But you’re either very dumb or you have no idea about alpine skiing.

  And I need to reiterate that the Darwin award is pseudoscientific and eugenicist-adjacent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  this wouldn’t happen when prepared adequately and behaved appropriately

  I agree. But this is hardly extreme skiing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Skier narrowly avoids a crevasse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Apart from “Darwin Award” being pseudo-scientific and eugenicist-adjacent: Skiing is considered “Darwin Award” worthy now?

  I think “veggie stew” is missing.

  the post is advocating for the murder of people based on their views, not theit actions.

  I think that’s the strawman.

  Not a tankie, try again.

  So the partisans who killed Mussolini are supposedly jpst as bad as Mussolini and Georg Elser just as bad as Hitler, or what? /s
