Even if someone did it yesterday and there is still a big hole at the bottom, no guarantee the ice and snow haven’t shifted somewhere inside and now it’s blocked off
That's because there is. Crevasses are incredibly dangerous. Imagine falling into a 50 foot canyon that gets narrower until you're wedged at the bottom and every time you exhale you go a little deeper till you can no longer breath. Stuff of nightmares.
I know, I watched the whole thing. But if you encounter such an opening, seeing marks of someone going in still only tells you just that – someone went in. They aren't a guarantee for the existence of an exit, or of an exit you can get to and through uninjured.

The weight of his balls dragging him through that cave.

Isn’t that like literally the opposite of what you are supposed to do?

That looks like a good way to get nutty putty'd.

No, thanks.

I'm assuming the fisheye lens makes this look way, way worse than it actually is... still a hard no

What in 8 shades of fuck would make you do that? On skis?

This seems unsafe.

Yeah, but that's just because it is.

It seems that way, but in actuality it's monumentally unsafe.

A glacier can shift at any time. Don't play under them.

A friendly reminder that snow and ice are not solid but flow, and will shift whenever Odin feels like it.

Exactly. This seems like a good way to get unalived.

Nutty Putty Cave, I'm assuming?

bring a spool of string so they can dig you out
LitchLitch
Even small avalanches break steel cables, strings are not really going to be sufficient
ByThePowerOfSCIENCE
fine, a streaming bottle of ink, or strawberry syrup so they can follow the sno-cone to your frozen ass 🍧
LitchLitch
Ok, but why bother? Goven climate trends its going to melt eventually and their lame ass will be much easier to access.

Your frozen corpse anyway.

maybe they dig fast

I'm very certain if i tried that there wouldn't be a bottom hole.
layinginbedfeelinglikeaquesarito
Even if someone did it yesterday and there is still a big hole at the bottom, no guarantee the ice and snow haven’t shifted somewhere inside and now it’s blocked off

I really hope they do some kind of test first…. Maybe drop a bucket of bouncy balls?
NineByNine
drr drr drr...
BerryButcher
There are tracks down there so it's a tested hole.

Leave my mother out of it.

Gotcher bottom hole right here.

That just looks like there's a high chance to die a very slow and horrible death.

This is my hole! It was made for me!

What’s crazy is there are rescue alert devices and yet some people will still just go without them on solo skis and hope for the best.
I’ve seen too many videos of people getting swallowed up and just by luck someone found them.
Nah. I’d have that rescue alert if I was soloing these deep snow areas.
IrrelevantHandle
If you can't afford the alert gizmo then you can't afford to solo ski. Same with solo hiking.
woodworkerf
What about solo sex?

Ever since I heard about the Nutty Putty cave incident, I swore to myself I would never find myself in tight spaces like these.
squirrelgirl86
It's so horrible and yet I can't help but snort and think "imagine dying in a place called Nutty Putty cave"

Or that one where the snowboarder got stuck upside down from falling into a snow well. https://www.adventuresnw.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/TreeWells-799x1024.jpg

Oh that wasn't fun to watch at all.
PineappleIsDeliciousOnPizzaFightMe
I have to assume they tested this in some way before somebody actually went into it
SergeyPrkl
I think someone fell in, and discovered, by luck, there is an exit and it can be done again.
PineappleLoopsBroether
You don’t actually have to assume that. I think we both HOPE so, but there’s a low chance they test it
FetteredJuvenescence
Doesn't actually matter. Even if your friend just went through 30 seconds ago, a tiny shift in the snow might mean it's blocked now.
redstaterefugee
You can see the ski tracks indicating it wasn't the first time someone went through.
abetteridiot
That only indicates someone went *in* though…
redstaterefugee
You do see them at the end going out.

Maybe they sent a squirrel on skis
