Okay: I watched this video right before going to bed last night, and had an interactive dream about it. I was skiing with these guys and knew he was about to fall so I was trying to tell him, But he couldn't hear me. Then I thought since I already knew he was gonna fall I should get a gopro and film another angle so we had a better shot hahaha. Glad I came here to remember that
Hate to be a stickler but we know neither his velocity nor his flight path. Every ballistic trajectory is parabolic (more accurately elliptical about the earth's center) so a simple straight-line distance equation isn't reflecting reality here.
You'd need to know his initial vertical velocity, then you could figure out how high he went and a bunch of other stuff. But wow he flew forever, and he seems to be smiling a bit when he lands. Didn't seem to get hurt so it was probably somewhat fun and scary.
pure dumb luck he survived that. So stupid. As soon as he rolled onto his left shoulder in the air he clips like a rock outcropping or something with his shoulders, head, whatever. Unreal.
