Yes, the ride in this video could have ended with severe casualties and even worse, but the rider seems to have had a truly lucky day, therefore it all comes down to the healthy laughs.
We admit that the scenery is breathtaking and we believe it's rather easy to lay a heavy hand on the throttle. Well, riding fast is definitely fun on snow and asphalt alike, but there's a huge difference between the two: asphalt has infinitely better grip, so slowing down is much easier.
Gliding on snow, however, is a different business, altogether and slowing down or even precise steering at high speeds requires tremendous skills... and it's not the case with this rider.
It looks like he hits the last tree pretty hard with his shoulder, but the screams are pure frustration, and not pain. And watching the crash several times in a row, we can understand his anger. Even though it only causes more laughter each time...
