One of the most terrifying snowmobile videos we’ve ever seen is in the process of going viral across the Internet.

We really don’t have many details, but the video itself speaks volumes. Some unfortunate snowmobiler takes his sled high up a mountain in what seems like a competition of some sort. Just as he’s about to reach the apex of the climb, the front end lifts up and rider falls off the snowmobile and begins a fast and frightening trip back down the mountain. He was wearing a helmet cam for his trip, so the video you’ll see below is all from his perspective.

The mountain really doesn’t see that steep while he’s climbing it, but that perspective changes quickly when you see how fast he careens down the hill.

Perhaps the most stunning thing about this video is that the snowmobiler seems largely unharmed.

It may seem like forever, but snowmobile season really is close by. To help tide you over until you can ride again we found a very cool deep-powder video on YouTube that should get your blood pumping.

Fair warning…this video will have you aching to fire up your snowmobile. If you don’t have the will power to hold off you probably shouldn’t watch.

Far be it from us to laugh at a damsel in distress, but when you post a video of your distress on YouTube for all to see we figure it’s open season.

Riding a Yamaha Nytro, the lady in question made a long run at a makeshift snowmobile jump. Things look good in the early going, but lady luck turns her back on our heroine in midair. The sled tips its nose towards terra firma where the skis make first contact. After a quick scream the rider is unceremoniously thrown off the front on her way to what appears to be a rather unpleasant landing.

According to the video comments, the Nytro suffered a bent bumper and handlebar and the windshield popped out, but is generally no worse for wear. We have no information on the condition of the rider, but she did post the video and added a couple of comments so at least her fingers are in proper working order.
