German man escapes de*th thanks to his emergency airbag after being swept away down a mountain by an avalanche.

The incident happened at Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in Europe.


As the man started sliding down the slope, he could be seen inflating his anti-avalanche airbag to keep him above the surface of the snow.

The man was then taken to the hospital by a helicopter.

On the same day, separate avalanches took the lives of five skiers in the French Alps.
