Chris Whatford BARELY makes this River gap 👀🤯 #skiing #ski #skis

[placebomandingo]

Something tells me he's seen the inside of a rescue helicopter..

[artificiallyunintelligent]

He didn’t “barely make” that, he “barely survived” it!

[AnthonySmith-grpf]

The extra propulsion of him shitting his pants is what saved him😅

[JohnTomlinson-tn]

There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity. He is so lucky 😮😮

[Home-at-Heart]

“Well, that was close.”
*Starts slipping*

[headbusta]

When you can ski but forget about science.

[Owensville_Lark]

The snow looks sticky. Probably slowed him down a bit

[Wintek]

This is a male- 16-30 years old. Prefrontal cortex not fully developed. 😅

[Nellosphere]

That's a terrible run in. The last hump robs all of your speed.

People say fight your fears, but sometimes fear is your life saver.

[weejohnbb]

That's the kind of adrenaline I don't need.

[CelestialRaven]

You're lucky to be alive, dude. Thank God!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[murray]

Won’t be long before we’re saying “the late” Chris Whatford ….

[thatoneguy]

Bro had to sit and think about what he did

[hitthestreetsphoto]

As they always say: He was such an energetic young man and he loved what he did. We will miss him (for a few weeks anyway).

[ash_hull]

i love how he screams at the start but not while nearly dying

[jonw]

Better caption: Guy gives a "YOLO" scream and almost dies.

[SandhillCrane]

"aaaAAAAaah!" he said and nearly died.

[putster]

Bro was literally flapping his wings for that extra foot lol

[Sal.Manila]

If this guy is still alive somewhere, I hope he’s decided that life is wayyy more valuable than an adrenaline rush. I also hope he realizes how close he came to ending his life that day.
