Pro skiing veteran, Ian McIntosh, narrowly escapes with his life after what TGR Co Founder, Todd Jones, says "was the most terrifying crash I've ever seen." While filming for Paradise Waits up in the Neacola range of AK, Mac dropped into a line he thought he had studied thoroughly enough, only to fall into an unseen five foot deep trench on one of his first turns. 
 
 "From there, my slough took over and their was no way to stop, I pulled my airbag to help prevent against any possible trauma injuries as I tumbled to the bottom," he said. While attempting to regain his footing, Mac lost a ski and cartwheeled over 1,600 feet in under a minute. To check out his equally terrifying, less dangerous AK lines, get a copy of TGR's 2016 ski and snowboard film, Paradise Waits. 
 
 Stay tuned for the next episode of Behind The Line, dropping Wednesday, for the full story behind this crash.

 NECOLA, Alaska, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- Teton Gravity Research released video of professional skier Ian McIntosh surviving a 1,600-foot fall from the Necola mountains in Alaska. 
 
 The fall took place while the 24-year-old was filming footage for the upcoming winter extreme sports film Paradise Waits. 
 
 The video, uploaded to YouTube, shows McIntosh tumbling down the mountainside for over a minute. 
 
 In a blog post, McIntosh said some quick thinking helped him walk away from the fall relatively unharmed. 
 
 "I pulled my airbag to help prevent against any possible trauma injuries as I tumbled to the bottom," he said. 
 
 Teton Gravity Research co-founder Todd Jones described the fall as "the most terrifying crash I've ever seen."
– Sure it's fast, but it's not the way we would choose to get down a mountain. UPI reports a 24-year-old professional skier survived a 1,600-foot fall while filming footage for an extreme sports film in Alaska's Necola mountains. The film production company, Teton Gravity Research, posted a video of Ian McIntosh's plummet to YouTube last week. The company's founder calls it "the most terrifying crash I've ever seen" in a blog post. McIntosh tumbled 1,600 feet in less than a minute while losing a ski. "I pulled my airbag to help prevent against any possible trauma injuries as I tumbled to the bottom," he explains in the blog post. Well that's one way to get viral advertising for your extreme sports video.
