is it just me, or does it seem stupid that the guy is riding a line above the person standing in the pow?

im no pro on riding snowmobiles in pow, but to me that sounds kinda stupid…

Yeah not sure I would be focusing on getting helmet off either…. (for danger further reasons not injury/breathing/spinal reasons)

Yeah, I agree with you deano!!!!!

I reckon that they left him there for a while, just to let the contents of his underpants set a little before diggin him out completely!!!!!
