I usually can keep my cool in really intense situations, but I just remember being like ‘this is the time I’m going to die.’ –Clark Fyans
Helicopter ski guide and action sports producer, Clark Fyans, gives The Ski Channel a detailed encounter of surviving an avalanche in Chile. Despite being faced immediately with a life or death situation, the Utah native refused to let fear set in as he was buried alive by snow.
“I know that sound very well, and then I saw the entire slope coming towards me.”
As an avalanche specialist, Fyans knew exactly how to react, letting the snow consume him like a rag doll and get throw against rocks as he went along for the ride. Incredibly enough, the only significant injury that he endured was compound fracture that led to 17 days in the ICU, and both a skin and bone graph.
