(From Playbook) You know it’s never a good sign when a video is titled Snowmobile 0, Mountain 1. And yet, a French snowmobiler found himself on the wrong end of what was supposed to be a tranquil ride up a mountain. Not much is known about the video’s origin, other than that it was recently uploaded to the French version of Zapiks.com, a site that collects videos from outdoor and extreme sports. Fortunately, the rider involved in the crash appears OK, but he did record the entire episode through a high-def helmet cam mounted above his noggin.
As you’ll see, the snowmobile ride appears to be going just swimmingly, until he reaches the top of the mountain. The driver starts to veer a little too far to the right, overcompensates by swinging toward the left shoulder, hits the rocks along the side, and everything goes to hell after that. [Playbook]
