    The crew at TNF is really killing it support videos like these. Integrating the cell phone clips and other natural moments is absolutely killer. Rather than just creating story-boarded scenes from the get go, the crew is adding emotion and connection to real moments that we can then appreciate. Love'em. This video and Pulp are awesome. Thanks for the inspiration!

    Seriously? Is a near fatal avalanche something that should be made out as "badass" and animated as if its just some cool stunt? Those were obviously poor decisions and instead of making that mistake out to be some gnarly close-call, they shouldve maybe gone into why that happened and actually educate the viewers on the reality of backcountry riding! Boooo north face

    • @EmilyHorridge
      @EmilyHorridge 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Totally agree, but the animations make it clear what you should be doing in that situation. Keep eyes on, you HAVE to keep trying to see that person. At the same time you're thinking about getting your shovel and probe out.. A viewer knowing nothing about avalanche rescue might not understand what the animations are trying to remind you of, but if you do, then you should recognise them as exactly what you should be doing. I do agree that they're a touch flippant, I guess it was a fine line to tread, but it got me thinking about what I should be doing if it was me in that situation, so I guess that's good.
      This is one of the "best" (best/scariest/worst?) pieces of in-avalanche footage that I've seen. It genuinely looked like he was underwater, and you do hear advice to make swimming-like movements if you get caught in an avalanche. I was genuinely scared to know what was going to happen (although given that they included it in the edit, it obviously wasn't going to be fatal), and strongly reminded me that we all need to be careful out there and try to make wise decisions.

    What were they doing running helo lines on such a sketchy mountainside...? Anybody do any pit work before they started dropping lines? Anybody who's ever worked Patrol, MSR or similar is probably a little angry (myself included) after watching this one.

    loling at you all who think you can make better decisions than this crew. You're in the comments section for a reason, stay in your lane.
    if you've ever taken an Aiare 1 course the book literally opens with two facts:
    1. Avalanche risk is always present
    2. Don't assume just because you didn't get in an avalanche that you made all the right decisions and likewise don't assume you made the wrong decisions because you did set one off. That pigeon holes the learning process into false dichotomy.
    and if you haven't taken an Aiare course, again, stay in your lane
