Buried Alive - The dangers of snowboarding in a forest!

They got him out, but that was scary how deep he went!

LiveLeak: Snowboarder buried alive in snow. That's how a reckless snowboarding off the beaten track may end. You might get stuck in a so-called "tree well". http://www.stevenspass.com/Stevens/SiteAssets/images/ski-board/safety_drawing-tree-well.gif

That doesn't look like a tree well. There's no tree trunk close to him or overhanging branches. I think he just found an air pocket. I've been in a couple of large wells and was able to pull myself out by going hand over hand up the branches that created the well. Fortunately both times I was right side up when I stopped falling. I sure wouldn't want to be upside down in one with nobody around to help me out.
