  • 6 years ago
A skier creates a mini-avalanche by prodding a more than two-metre-high snow embankment with his hand in the French Alps ski resort of Tignes.

"In truth, it's pretty cool!" says a voice in the video.

"Once-in-a-generation" snowfalls have been recorded in the area in the last few days.

Some ski resorts never such amount of snow in the last 30 years.
