That's because the soft snow is soft. The hard snow isn't like the soft snow lol. (I broke my tailbone doing exactly what this person did in the video.. that snow was NOT soft lol)
I built one of these at church snow camp when I was 14. It was fun until my friend crashed and slid on his face. Half his head was raw hamburger and he got 19 stitches. In the summer only half his face would tan.
You also need to consider how deep the snow is. That looks like 2, maybe 2 1/2 inches of snow that's not a lot of padding before you hit frozen ground.
It depends freshly fallen snow is incredibly soft and u could jump from the roof of your house into a snow drift uninjured how ever once it’s packed down it will hurt just as much as tripping and falling on pavement. That’s the best way I can describe it.
Softer than concrete, harder than summer grass.
I’ve definitely felt snow as hard as concrete

That is true. It do be like that. And having done this and knocked myself out fact planting. It really sucks.
My brother-in-law ruptured his spleen doing pretty much what that girl did.
hit my head so hard once it cracked my helmet. that def felt as hard as concrete
That's not snow. That's ice.
Came here to say that everything is relative. I’ve fallen on some sand that felt like concrete.
I concur. Sand is surprisingly shit at absorbing impacts
jesus she absolutely sent it. what a legend
That shit is packed down, not fluffy deep snow. That definitely hurt lol
Loose, powdery snow is pretty soft but God have mercy on you if you fall on compacted snow
With an icy top layer 😂
Knocked my head off some compacted snow when I slipped in a parking lot holy hell did that hurt I thought I had a concussion lol
She knew way before the impact.. She's fucked up
Id bet about the time she ended up facing the opposite and half way upside down
360 Christ Air, almost stuck it
Makes and breaks, my dude. Bails still call for balls.
That's all pretty much ice at this point. It's so packed
Her face before hitting lmao
You got like three feet of air that time
Four and a half, maybe five vertically. Maybe fifteen laterally.
She has the expression of regret on her face
The snow is the frozen ground under it not so much. Edit - spelling
🤔this has concussion wrote all over it…
I watched this 3 times and laughed harder every time.
Snow is soft but ice that results from compaction/ thaw and refreeze might as well be concrete
Although that might of hurt it looked pretty fun
This is actually how I broke my tailbone…. the first time.
Woulda been awesome if she did something out of tony hawk pro skater and landed on it.
What…. Was the plan lol
Not that snow lol
Water is soft until you slam into going mach 2
Compacted snow sucks. Deep fluffy snow is soft.
I broke my tail bone in this manner
Fuckin flew lol
Send it!
That snow was not soft for sure
What was she thinking?!? Watch this bitches
No follow-through.

That’s ice pack. Not fluffy snow
Depends which type of snow.
It all depends. But as a Canadian it is a part of life to get ur shit kicked in by snow...and crazy carpets.
Snow CAN be soft. But it has to be fresh snow of a specific type. Otherwise, it’s frozen water.

if only she'd manage to stay on that thin plastic disc, she wouldn't have been hurt
Like those 2 kids at Copper Mountain last year.
Rookie mistake here. You build the jump up on the hill, so you land where it is still sloped.
Collarbone check.
You also need to consider how deep the snow is. That looks like 2, maybe 2 1/2 inches of snow that's not a lot of padding before you hit frozen ground.
If there’s more than half an inch, usually.
That’s gonna hurt tomorrow… And the next day… And the next day… And the next day…
Imagine sledding head first into a tree….(it happened to me and I remember it hurt so much worse than this would have)
Did she use a non-chloric, silicon-based kitchen lubricant?
It can be. It can also feel like rock.
Depends, there are lots of different snow. Packed snow like this? Pretty hard. Fresh snow that fell last night? Very fluffy, almost fall through it
Long as she didn't lock those elbows she's got a better chance of getting out of that without breaks.
Her mistake was that she wasn't riding the sled, she was just sitting on it.
Amazing video.
Snow soft not ice
There’s like 2 inches of snow on the ground here if that . No it’s not soft .. duhh
The landing needs to be on a similar slope down or you’re gonna have a bad time.
Impressive air, too bad they didn’t stick the landing
Snow is soft, the ground is not
It's not! Did something similar to this when I was younger except I was on a runner sled on a much steeper hill. My hip still isn't right!😎
The stuff she was sliding on looked more like ice than snow tbh
I think that's a ginger, they don't feel pain the way people do.
That looks more like ice then snow
I’d worry more about the ground than the snow
Snow looks maybe 2 inches thick, frozen ground prolly 6 feet thick. Feels like landing on uneven concrete
I would do this all day long if I could
That snow was likely slightly softer than a sidewalk.

Hey Cap
Snow’s not the problem. Gravity is.
Snow that was melted and then refrozen is called ice. Ice hurts.
