If you've ever wondered what it's like to fly 80-plus miles down an avalanche chute, wonder no longer.

Thanks to Reddit user @ilikethatduck (aka Will Strathmann), we get a first-person view of the experience through his impressive drone footage. Posted on Reddit a week ago, the video has garnered quite a bit of attention—for good reason. It's unlike anything we've ever seen before!

Check out the incredible footage below:

Bet you've never seen i70 like this before: flying down an avalanche path at 80+ MPH from r/Colorado

Filmed at Peak 4 of the Tenmile Range mountain range in Summit County, Colorado, the custom-built, FPV (first-person view) drone easily zips through the mountainous terrain. Piloting a drone at that speed while traversing tough terrain downhill is no easy task, but Strathmann makes it look easy.
