Watch an Avalanche Destroy a Ski Lift in Seconds [Video]

We here at Geekosystem are fascinated with avalanches — not exactly the destruction and chaos they bring; we’re nice people (really) — but the way they mesmerizingly engulf everything in their path, whether it be more snow, trees, or this active ski lift over in France. People were on the ski lift as the snow brought it down to the ground, but they fortunately made it off alright.
