This year, winter has shown its harsh face early in many places. Russia, already known for its cold climate, is facing a severe and challenging winter season. The blanket of snow covering the entire country has reached 400 cm in some regions, even rising up to the fourth floor of buildings.
A man had jumped onto the snow from his window a few days ago. Meanwhile, the youth in Russia have turned this into a social media trend.
Many people, especially as children, have dreamt of throwing themselves from a high place onto a soft blanket of snow. When the seasonal conditions in Russia became conducive to realizing this dream, vibrant scenes emerged. However, it's crucial not to overlook potential dangers. Hidden beneath the snow could be hard objects or layers of icy snow that could lead to serious fractures. If you become buried in deep snow, snowflakes can fill your mouth and nose. If the snow is powdery and a person falls awkwardly, they might not be able to free themselves and could suffocate under the snow. We hope that this trend ends before any unfortunate news arises.
