Figure skater getting hit by avalanche.

I thought the scene where the figure skater got hit by the avalanche was as cheesy as the cartoon blood spurt in the elevator crash scene in "Earthquake."

I loved how people were running, screaming, falling and oh yeah, a freakin' AVALANCHE is hurling at her, and she's still twirling!!!

Yeah, that scene was positively gut-busting. I also loved the sequence with the cocky champion skier making a game, albeit futile, attempt at outracing the avalanche.

Some terrible effects. But the way her creepy coach stared at her all the time was even worse.
