This one is interesting. Apparently these guys had a 'safety conference' before the three of them dropped into that 'secure looking' slope all at once.



Lots of educational video on
this youtube channel.

Wow, it looks like they were carried a long way. Amazing that they were not a little more banged up.

looked like a lot of moving snow there also, what king of safety meeting I wonder??

Yeah, supposedly they had already realized that the snow wasn't stable before dropping in so you'd think they would have tried to practice some form of safe skiing. Amazing how they all drop in at the same time, skiing just a few meters apart from each other.
It also looks like they might have been able to avoid the brunt of the avalanche had they not gone straight down the center. They guy on the skier's left was definitely in a better position than the other two.

A 'Safety Conference' is also a euphemism for sharing a joint in some parts of our troubled world...

Wow, it just looks so calm and perfect than all of a sudden it starts to give way.

How something so nice can turn so dangerous so quickly...

Google "A Dozen More Turns" it's a real good vid on avalanches.

look for terra 312, 313 314

Mann....
What a story.

That is simply mind-boggling

Really good video, that. Scary. They had the gear and the guy who died had a Master's degree in something avalanche related.

Looks like their suits matched their avalanche knowledge
