Skier in coma after crash

[movies9943]

his ski broke

[rampage186]

thats when u tuck and do a backflip

[rosariosamuelD]

why the shit was there a dog barking?

[FlyingZamora]

i ski... a lot... and this has probably changed my view on skiing... forever... (^.=.^)

[TheBaseball0122]

holy shit piss fuck

[ugnut123]

sweet god

[maryy294]

pause at :15. only funny part

but holy crap that musta hurt.

[zamamattiolo]

138 kmh right before a jump....!!!! who made up this track configuration....!!!!!????

[TheBart1482]

@zamamattiolo

They flattened out the jump at the end so now you dont get any air on it, but theres just no way to change the fact you get up to 140 at that point, its in the courses DNA, and it would ruin the downhill and super-G

[anjew821]

hope he didn't bend his poles

[TheNickmonster1]

i laughed at this.... im gona go to hell :(

[austinnguyenparkour]

ive gotten hit in the head it hurts his looks bad...

[sledz4life]

If anyone says this isnt a hard fall, he fell hard enough to SNAP his left ski... its also like jumping out of a car at highway speeds...

[snowyphil65]

@sledz4life yea that just doesnt happen with race skis, and it did, alot of people think snow is soft, might as well slam pavement, its like jumping off the top of a pickup at highway speeds

[FBUDNOXON14]

sux he wasnt concious. i'll bet that flight out would have been pretty cool.

[M11ty2]

@FBUDNOXON14 if you are trying to be funny you reall suck at it.... just sayin

[FBUDNOXON14]

@M11ty2 No i'm not trying to be funny, im a mountain climber and outdoors sort of person and those mountains would be pretty cool to take a helicopter around there. sorry that you took my comment the wrong way. that was not how i intended it to be read.

[OneSkiWonder]

Do they just keep the helicopter running/flying during the event? And I want that job of the medics hanging under the helicopter! That would be sick!

[crv26]

fuck that second contact did him in....fuck that sucks

[ferraricatty]

it was horrible to see this crash. and you know what? this accident happened exactly on ms dad's birthday.

[Bsblob]

now THAT is a yard sale

[jamespark96]

ouch.

[OkAnSAHIN38]

he is 100% death

[spaidersau]

never... he´s still alive man....

[pumkinchunkin]

not quite to the finish

[6Ott7]

pwned

[riksa93]

fuck. u.

[itzzy4ever]

dog han?

[scooter650]

I'm glad he's better now, that was terrible.

[papasmurftw]

Both skiis snapped at the backs. The wind must have caught under there because he took off.

[nquewezance]

yep... that'll put anyone in a coma.

[MoserHias]

Hört mal bei 0:18  " Zefix"

[00Sonnyaa]

@MoserHias xxD

[00Sonnyaa]

@hellswings was lol bitch?

[Fatlavita]

this was not a trial run! this was the race bitches

[paulpazdera]

This was Daniel Albrecht of Switzerland in January 2009 and it surely was a training session. It was NOT in the race.

Albrecht is well now and plans to race again.

[disintegrationmike]

That's great news he's well again, that was awful.

[00Sonnyaa]

@paulpazdera he are weeks in the koma *-*

[empedocle80]

you bitch! this is the trial run!

[Jemma19]

@Fatlavita : get your fact right, it was the trial!

[Ari3ona]

Странно... что стало причиной падения... хм... Надеюсь, с ним всё ок!

[chTbest]

bec tela hazad peremectilcia

[Earl2Aron]

[BloodyBBQ]

133kph....

[fumafumafuma69]

highway to hell!

[cjeb2003]

Imagine landing flat on your back and butt at over 80 mph on solid concrete from about 40 feet up. That's how this would feel. He's damned lucky to be alive! Wish him all the best for his next run!

[nzskierboy]

is skis snapped

[kukuntz82]

His name is Daniel Albrecht, and he's coming back to competition after 9 days in a coma... he's a lucky guy

[powerbacke]

its amazing how suddenly everyone is quiet...that was a horrific crash

[ramblingwreckofGT]

i wonder when course designers are going to realize that really bad injuries occur at the drop-offs at the end, pick a better spot dudes

[SnoddyD123]

damn.... didnt even make the finish line :(

[ragehotmachinepepper]

it was a training run

[SnoddyD123]

[Muckilove]

[dazza2708]

[foley2367]

I saw this live, it was so shocking! Poor bloke

[Maddox2020]

138 Km/h on skis. Fucking crazy. You drive at that speed on the highway and you get pulled over. No wonder he's in a coma.

[hgz3t4]

[brecht181]

[TheValdo69]

[SkiCrosser1]

[pvevo]

No. He survived!

[SkiCrosser1]

OMG, he mustve been lucky. anyways glad he live :D

[dbriley18]

ya but hes in a coma and hes done for skiing, but he'll die eventually, sadly :(

[SkiCrosser1]

Eventually? so he died anyways D:?

[1djloko]

hes dead...police is making an investigation because it looks like the skis were "trucados"

[canadakid0]

HE'S Not dead!!!!! For gods sake get you facts right. Hes making a full recovery!

[chmarina]

He's not dead. He came out of the coma three weeks after the crash, and was breathing on his own by that time...

[1djloko]

ok .. but here in spain the tv thinks hes dead ... talk to them ;)

[SkiCrosser1]

Omg o.O

[misplacedmouse]

the same thing happend to me on a snowboard, off a 55 kicker. I was lucky enough to get away with just a cracked rib.

[gigglepox]

holy shi dude i love skiing but after seeing this i dunno man...

[begoneyoubum]

This video does not show the cable breaking when they are lifting him up into the helicopter! Daniel went crashing to the ground AGAIN when the cable that was lifting him into the air ambulance snapped and he slammed down onto the ski hill while he was in that rescue toboggan!

[Omdullla]

watch the fking skiis, theyre beeing ripped apart :O

[Cellbuster]

Those faces just scare the shiz out of me, I like racing, but i hate leaving the ground.

[threelegduck]

Kirtzbuhel!? More like Blitzkrieg !! Jeez! He is out of the coma now, but no news video of the guy ... he must be in bad shape after the brain damage and lung infection. maybe it was worth it to him before, but now he will have a long recovery. get well danny boy

[threelegduck]
