Obviously, someone made it across to film the situation. At 12 seconds in you can just see what looks to be a posthole. That first(camera) guy probably was the one to get the "freaked-out" moment. They should have done "Ferris Wheel Arm Swings" with their ice axes while leaping. It would have looked more movie-esk...... Seriously though, what is up with the dude scooting back closer to the crevasse!?? I would have chewed on him for that.

Great shot! Snow bridges scare the piss out of me. I've been belayed over them many times and NEVER been comfortable.

@benuaq Yes, it's much better to place the anchor on the downhill side of the ice bridge, just in case. That's why I like to carry a couple of throwable anchors when I'm on a glacier.

The guides knew that the bridge was there hence the belay. I am sure it was bigger then they expected. You wouldn't want to walk into that the falling snow would likely bury you
