Good vid but I had two things that I took exception to. One- I don't think the guy was in danger or dying of hypothermia, I think he was in danger of suffocating. Two, for being buried 6' under, they sure got him out quick. I didn't even see a shovel.

I'm not downplaying the danger at all- these comments are more directed at the Discovery channel than anything, as - particularly with the hypothermia comment- they seem kind of ignorant about avalanches.
