What began as a laid-back day at a snowmobile race quickly turned into a terrifying ordeal and it was all caught on camera.
30-year-old Lena Scrivanich from San Diego, California, USA was sledding when she lost control in this terrifying footage.
What looked like harmless fun became a nightmare as she careened down the icy slope with her travelling 500 feet in just 30 seconds.
Injuries mounted fast as the 30-year-old was left with: a torn bicep, damaged Labrum, and serious trauma to her MCL and PCL.
The pain was so intense she even considered hitting a tree just to stop the slide.
With no other option, Lena kept her arms up and body straight, sliding until she collided with a cluster of skis finally bringing her to a stop.
Ski patrol arrived quickly with a rescue toboggan.
The scary situation occurred at one of the steepest slopes in North America – the Snow King.
