⚡️⛷️ NEW: German man escapes death thanks to his emergency airbag after being swept away down a mountain by an avalanche.
The incident happened at Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in Europe.
As the man started sliding down the slope, he could be seen inflating his anti-avalanche airbag to keep him above the surface of the snow.
The man was then taken to the hospital by a helicopter.
On the same day, separate avalanches took the lives of five skiers in the French Alps ⤵︎
