This is the stuff of nightmares for most off-piste skiers. Gliding along the fresh snow, minding your own business, when you go over a little hump and fall 152ft (46m).

Luckily for Devin Stratton, he escaped relatively unscathed and posted the video on Instagram.

Alongside the Instagram post, Devin wrote: “Turns out I am afraid of heights … Miraculously I didn’t even have a bruise! I did break a lot of gear including my helmet.

“Thanks to Matt for helping me dig for nearly 5 hours I found my lost ski and skied down.”

The video has been edited down for Instagram. You can see a more complete version and get more detail in this video from his cousins .
