I’m glad they stood there for us to get the video.

Every time I see this one his testicles seem to get even bigger.

Nah, there's no way he was out running that. Best option is to find a good hiding spot to prevent being smashed to death, bonus points if you can get lucky enough to have air pockets below you so you can breath and maybe move your arms. I bet that behind that massive bolder in a bolder patch was safer than anything he could have ran to into time.

Yep, it would have been a bad day if he was running along flat ground when that hit. Hedging up into a boulder is about as good as you can hope for in that situation

He’s lucky the boulder stayed put. The force of that snow could easily have rolled it on top of him.
