Caught in an Avalanche in Kyrgyzstan (Everyone Survived) || ViralHog

- Occurred on July 8, 2022 / Jukku Pass, Tian Shan Mountains, Kyrgyzstan
We were 9 Brits and 1 American on a guided tour of the Tian Shan mountains in Kyrgyzstan. We’d just reached the highest point in the trek and I separated from the group to take pictures on top of a hill/cliff edge. While I was taking pictures I heard the sound of deep ice cracking behind me. This is where the video starts. I’d been there for a few minutes already so I knew there was a spot for shelter right next to me. I was on a cliff edge, so I could only run away from the shelter (hence why I don’t move). Yes I left it to the last second to move, and yes I know it would have been safer moving to the shelter straight away. I’m very aware that I took a big risk. I felt in control, but regardless, when the snow started coming over and it got dark/harder to breath, I was bricking it and thought I might die.
Behind the rock it was like being inside a blizzard. Once it was over the adrenaline rush hit me hard. I was only covered in light powder, without a scratch. I felt giddy. I knew the rest of the group was further away from the avalanche so should be okay. When I re-joined them I could see they were all safe, although one had cut her knee quite badly (she rode one of the horses to the nearest medical facility). Another had fallen off a horse and sustained some light bruising.
The whole group was laughing and crying, happy to be alive (including the girl who cut her knee). It was only later we realized just how lucky we’d been. If we had walked 5 minutes further on our trek, we would all be dead. If you look carefully in the video, you can see the faint grey trail winding through the grass. That was the path. We traversed it afterwards, walking among massive ice boulders and rocks that had been thrown much further than we could have run, even if we acted immediately. To make it worse, the path runs alongside a low ridge, hiding the mountain from view, so we would have only heard the roar before lights out.

"Oh well at least it's far away, it won't get this far, let's watch."
Yeah, because they were going to be able to outrun it's reach within 20 seconds.
Might as well appreciate the last few moments before it gets there with some cover.(this is what they did)
You aren't outrunning an avalanche on foot.
i think he chose to record it because there was really no escape, better to document everything in case you don't make it out
🤣
😢😂
I wish he continued filming so we'd get to see how it ended
It’s like he suddenly realized he wasn’t watching this on youtube.
🤣🤣🤣
Lol 😂
😆😆 too funny! That's what I think a lot of people were thinking
🤪😂😂i hope he is save
🤣😂🤣
The best cameraman of this century.
Amazing footage.
Øk!
Is it glacier????
Stupid cameraman.
Cameraman is a pro. Even his casual retreat under the rock ledge was well timed.
We know the cameraman always survives. No worries.
yo soy un profesional n la cama un animal 😢😅😅
He is not a pro, he is irresponsable
@@aminechareb6869Irresponsible? He couldn’t be more responsible.
That deadline approaching while I'm busy procrastinating.

😂This statement would make a great meme.
That part lol 😆

“Should we run”
“Nah we’re good”
Поздно бежать...
А какай смысл бежать и куда?
rocc strong. take cover.
Лучше укрыться за камнем. Эта херня двигается быстрее гоночного болида. Ты от неё не убежишь
That's moving at an incredible rate of speed
Probably at 100 mph??
This is 10× better than any avalanche scene of documentaries.
Now there is an avalanche judge. smh
在搖滾區肯定很震撼
Wow good thing we got Mister Avalanche over here tellin’ us his expert opinion on avalanche cinematography.
Is he still alive? Hahhaa
yea shoutout to the cameraman sitting in one spot risking his life for the footage
Rare footage of what our parents had to endure while walking to school.
😆
funny 😁
This is also what they think their college loan and first home experience was like 😅
finally we get to see after all those years of taunting 😂 😂 😂
And walking home
Не волнуйтесь, камеру нашли и видео уцелело 😊
😂😅
Не выжел
Спасибо за эти кадры! Респект оператору.
Великая сила природы: мощь и красота.
He had confidence in the cameraman’s immortality.
Он выжил и показал снятое на камеру миру.
The video description is worth reading, it's the cameraman's account of what happened
Facts bro true
The camera man always lives
Cameraman at the end : Alert, immortality potion over.
RUNN....

he already knows he can't escape
Can I just say l, Thank you to the camera guy, who let us all experience this 👏🏻👊🏻👏🏻
Well done Harry for epic video
Much better than the ones who "cut away" as soon as the action happens.
He did well not panicking either.
It honestly was like one of the movies when ducked under that rock and the snow went over.
Absolutely bravo 👏 👏 👏
The panic sets in for us when we say to ourselves: “he can’t zoom back anymore!!!”
wth
can't*
Can’t*
Hello does anyone here believe in Jesus?
😂😂❤️
Великолепное зрелище, отличные кадры, какая сила и мощь снежной лавины. Отдельная благодарность туристу, который не побоялся и до последнего снял это красивое зрелище👌👍
Страшно красивое зрелище
Это просто глупость, так рисковать, надеюсь он живой, мог бы в сторону отойти😮
As long as he was holding the camera, I knew he'd survive. 😊
😂
Me thinking to myself: "It should stop now right?"
Avalanche: "Nope."
🤚😳🤚🤬😳🤚😭😱🥴
Lol!
My thoughts
I think I would have moved my ass and said they're standing there recording this s*** I think I would have took off running
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@thehillbillygamer2183 I thought so too. But then it got to him and thought again. I mean think about. How long did it take to reach him from that far away. How far do you think you getting on foot in that same time. I feel like if you decided to run you only bought yourself 5 secs tops. Not only that but you lost a perfectly good rock to hide behind. Lol
The cameraman never dies
Safest thing is to start recording.
😆
The guy who filmed the Mt. Saint Helens eruption was among the first to die.

Cameraman never dies 💀
He dies !!
@Saiba Majeed the title of the video says everyone survived
if he died then how did we get the video😂😂
Yeah dude
bas kar do bhai abb
I’m so proud of this man for standing his ground to bring us this footage 😂
Running wouldn't have got him far enough to safety I guess, he or rather they were wise enough to shield themselves from the hit and hoped to survive in the cavity till help came
He was an idiot for so long, that as soon as he finally realized it was going to hit him it was too late. Absolute moron lol
thanks to him!😁
the guys a genius honestly, pulling out camera is the best thing you can do. the camera man never dies
10/10

Tip: if you're ever in danger just grab a camera and start recording cause the camera man always survives
Not in movies 🍿
😅
Ryt ✔
The underlying Trick: videos of only survived cameramen make it to CZcams. So the comment stands forever 😅
The survivorship bias?
" it's getting really close "
" nah we're good bro. I'll just zoom out "
Lmao
LOL
I like that

چقدر زيباست درحالیکه وحشتناک ومرگبار است .زنده باد فیلم بردار اين صحنه اعجاز طبيعت 👌
Оператор очень сообразительный и понял нужно найти место где ловина подпрыгнет и сделает воздушный корман, поэтому стоял после резкого подъёма.
все равно сверху несколько тонн и нечем дышать

It is ok. He didn’t die. Everyone knows the Camera man never dies.

Только сложность в том, что эта масса которая сошла сверху уже не тот снег что мы знаем как пушистый у нас на лужайке перед домом. Это как цементная масса бетона и человек в нём даже не может дышать как в кольцах питона, сжимающего грудную клетку. А каждый сантиметр вверх по уклону это рассеянная сила потока. Опрометчиво так стоять напротив схода.
В поисках красивых кадров, рискуя жизнью, что еще сказать
Мне кажется основная масса-таки ушла влево по склону? Вообще не понимаю, откуда там такой объем снега сошел, балкон?
Can’t say with this cameraman “he had one job”, he definitely understood the assignment.😂 Bravo 👏🏽
Thank You All for the likes!
🙏🏽❤️
🤣🤣🤣
Even if it cost him his life, he was gonna make sure he got the perfect angle
Cant?
@suiteTea 84 whats your IG momma
"Now this one right there is the most professional cameraman I have seen." He should be awarded for this one..😂
He didn't die because of that camera 🤣
Fantastic idea having an air pocket under the ledge. I wonder how deep he got buried
Honestly this is one of the cooler looking avalanche videos I’ve seen, man deserves all the praise for holding that out and bringing us this footage forsure
Ага.. Обезательно наградим.. Бамбуком по яйцам.. Вдруг они по настоящему не железные..
He was with his Life 🙂
О Боже ... Я надеюсь, что он жив!!! 🙏🙏🙏
The camera man always survives!
"Don't you run. Don't you turn that camera. You stay there until it hits you and keep your camera going the entire time." - documentary director.
You must keep it going.. you have the natural right of cameraman immunity 👍🏻😂
“ ….if you even think about budging I swear on the Al mighty I’m personally guarantee you will never work in this industry another day in your life…”
You really think they could have outrun that? 😑🙄
@@simonito1715 They could've at least gotten farther.
@@BobRossCat yeah they definitely should have a better cover than a 2 feet rock
How many people were thinking "I think i'd be moving by now " as it was getting closer
I would’ve started running at the sound… being out there guys… that sounds before u even see it is enough… I was outta there !!!! And would’ve been in this instance too!! Never would’ve got this footage… Never! 🏃🏾
He wouldn’t have made it far. That was quick.
if you run or stay doesn’t matter at all in this situation 🤣 avalanches can reach up to 400kph ! you can not outrun it.
@@lucasmancini2 shit didn't know they come that fast... When I ran I was further away than this maybe... So maybe ur right on this here bro lol
@@lucasmancini2 Seems like staying behind a rock was the best thing to do here.

hail of the cameramen
He's alive tho 😂

The most English reaction to danger ever just a quiet "oh dear god" haha
As an Englishman I felt he expressed a little bit too much emotion.
@@aragornthebrave He's probably embarrassed about losing his cool.
At least he knew the right name to call.
@@aragornthebrave so i am not the only one thinking that he got over the limit with that phrase
*"OH GREAT HEAVENS!"*

Underrated comment lol
Haw Haw Haw Haw 😄
You wouldn't say the same if it was of someone drowning
This man drinks a gin and tonic, he's just waiting for some ice
The cameraman always survives
Ого! Какая мощь! Кто бы мог подумать!
Круто. Смотреть на лавину от первого лица в 7D
This is one of the most impressive vídeos i've seen on youtube..
Incredible footage!
Worthy comment
am sure this comment probably not but the most cringe shit ive witnessed
The amazing sight of the descent of death splashing across the land would certainly be worth any attempt to flea. I imagine I wouldn't be able to move a muscle in person. My senses would have me stonewalling a deal with the reaper.

They are British if I’m not mistaken. They always either calmly accept anything thrown at them or run like the wind like they did in France many times before.
@@FrostReave also why they let a monarchy walk all over them.

Or the stupidity 😂
Guts? I think hes just stupid.
@@Gem_ini There was no point running. Did you see how quickly that crossed the distance between him and the start? Best thing was to hunker down in a sheltered spot - there's no way in hell you could outrun that.
@@ValleysOfRain Exactly 💯
Можно было попробовать отойти в сторону!!!
Он всё это сделал ради на нас чтобы мы сейчас смотрели на это видос и получали снежное удовольствия)😊
What a beast just keeps on filming
That “oh dear god” was the equivalent of saying “well it seems as though I have made some slight miscalculations”
🤣 🤣 I really didn't expect the snow to come that close! Was shocked when it did. Shows the power of speed that cannot be seen.
@Andy c he likely wasn’t expecting it to get so close…
@@neburg6685 no, he just wasn’t going to be able to outrun a fucking avalanche down a mountain with crazy terrain on foot, he would have to be a cross between usain bolt and a mountain goat to pull that off 😝.
@@l0l0mgwtgdq no....
Ah yes “I immediately regret this decision”
"The cameraman never dies, I'm just gonna stand here to prove it."
LOL here's your sign
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those are the last words that every cameraman says trying to capture risky shots
Yessir
If he'd run he'd probably be dead, he couldn't have outrun it and he had the best vantage point behind that little cleft in the rock. it shielded him from the full weight of the ice. IMO.
He knew the best survival tactic was not letting go of the camera 📸
You can tell the moments where he’s confident that it won’t get to him, then that sudden doubt, then back to confidence, and then severe doubt
😂😂😂
That slight turn to see if his friend is reacting yet, lol. Like a game of chicken.
Camera man : let me zoom a little bit
Avalanche : let me come closer 🤣🤣
Let the avalanche come closer. I don't think you have any choice.
You've got it nailed down🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏿
LMAO!
That was great
😂😂😂😂
One of the coolest videos ever

"Oh he's just zoomed in from far away he'll be fine"
We both were wrong.
Best video on CZcams EVER!
Bro really said, "Nah, I'd win"
I'll admit I thought we were at a safe enough distance.
We were, but the cameraman wasn't 🤣
How was the experience I need dtails
Obviously not 😂
So did I !!!
Надеюсь вы остались живы и не поранились
“I’ll zoom out…then zoom in”
Avalanche: “don’t zoom in, I’LL COME
TO YOU!” 👹

Lolol
😂😂😂😅
Im more amazed at how stuff so solid can just glide across the earth like its nothing. I know alot of it is dust and residue but still looks insane.
Bros like "nah we good tho" 😂
The whole time I’m asking “why are you not running?
Idk but would he have outrun the avalanche even if he started running at the very sight?
You cannot out run an avalanche, it see how much distance it covered? Better to find some cover like he did and hunker down.
