Reply to comment by BackRowRumour in ELI5: What are tree wells and why are they dangerous during an avalanche? by Narrev
I know you can read and write and be appreciative and are smart enough to access reddit and empathetic enough to share your story of survival to help someone understand. Dont discount those qualities and abilities. Considering humankind they do move you up "in the ranks".

Reply to TIL on 1924, for the Olympic Games, BRitish athlete Eric Liddell refused to run the 100 metres since it was set on Sunday, instead choosing to run the 400 metres by Johannes_P
The soundtrack for the movie is awesome. When I was a grad student Id start every work session with it. To this day (30 years later) If I need to focus, just hit the play button).

I had occasion to stay at McDonalds training center for an event. All the hotel art lining the hallways had McDonalds in it. I recall one abstract that you had to study but there were the arches, cleverly worked in. In all different styles. You name the style, an artist worked it in.

Reply to comment by Salt_Market_6989 in TIL about the void that forms under certain trees when it snows, called tree wells. The upper branches of the tree prevents snow from falling below it, creating a pocket that is a serious peril for skiers & snow boarders. Several die every year from falling head first into these voids. by Roguecop
checkout the video of a skier saving a snowboarder who ended up in a tree well. It is posted in this thread (timing was after your question).
