Well, maybe the whipper wasn’t as gnarly as it could have been (he wasn’t knocked unconscious or worse), but it sure looked radical. This ice wall released on climber Marcel Schenk recently in a canyon in Switzerland. Climbing is burly on its own, ice climbing is next level. The caption from govertical, where the vid was posted, confirms this notion: “Ice climbing is a very serious type of mountaineering. Be sure that the protection is always placed in the right place and never on the ice piece that you climb!!!” Yep.
