WATCH: Skier Miraculously Survives 1,600 Foot Fall From Alaskan Mountain

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Professional skier Ian McIntosh's attempted stunt could have gone much worse.

Somehow, McIntosh was able to survive the nearly 2,000-foot fall, all the while wearing a body camera to record the sounds of his fall.

The footage was released on November 5th, and shows him fall down the entire mountain side in less than a minute.
