In movies, we often see exaggerated scenes of natural disasters, but nothing is more terrifying than an actual assault by nature. Whether predictable or not, any disaster can cause significant casualties.
Recently, a group of researchers in India encountered an avalanche near the Himalayas in Zanskar, northern India. Instead of escaping immediately, they approached the snowy mountain and used their phones to record the astonishing moment of the avalanche. It is still unclear whether there were any casualties.
The video shows the avalanche was massive, yet the crew members in the frame seemed unaware of the danger. They even moved closer to the site to witness the spectacle. As the avalanche grew larger, the hikers appeared unfazed. Taylor Maavara, who uploaded the video, said the entire village was covered in dust afterward, and the sound was staggering. Another hiker described it as the largest avalanche he had ever seen.
