A British man on a trekking tour in Kyrgyzstan separated from his group to take pictures when an avalanche swept toward him. The man continued recording the moment until he had to take cover behind a rock to narrowly escape the avalanche.

Everyone in the trekking group survived the avalanche, which took place on July 8, and just one woman was injured.
