Watch this heart-stopping ski crash footage as a skier reaches speeds of 245KMH before taking a tumble. This intense video captures the adrenaline and danger of extreme skiing.
The fastest possible speed someone can ski downhill depends on a few factors: the steepness of the slope, snow conditions, equipment, and the skier’s technique. Let’s break it down:
Professional Alpine Ski Racing (World Cup / Downhill)
Typical speeds: 50–80 mph (80–130 km/h) on steep, groomed slopes.
Record speeds: Alain Baxter, Simone Origone, and others in speed skiing competitions can reach over 100 mph (160 km/h).
Speed Skiing (Specialized Event)
This is specifically designed for maximum speed on very steep, straight courses.
Current world record: 254.958 km/h (~158.5 mph), set by Simone Origone in 2016.
These speeds require aerodynamic suits, long skis, and extremely smooth, steep slopes.
Is that the same guy that tried to set a speed record going down a mountain On a bicycle, but it broke in half sending him head over heels down the mountain.
I'm thinking under 100 mph based on his length of slide. His suit is extra slippery. I've slid much further going much slower. Next time show a five pointed star crash.

🥚=🍳 😢
Unlikely that this was even 150mph, very few have hit that speed and even the very fastest was only 158mph.
bros one leg said “nah ima do my own thing”🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀

He only had miner head injuries he's alright now
That's what you get for wearing that dumb looking suit.
Looks like something out of that infamous Jaguar car advert
Nobody skis 245 mph. Get a grip with the fake headlines!
Yes yes i know that people get hurt doing this but it kinda looks satisfying to me
NOT 245 mph. More like 60
Looks like his balls separated from his body lol
245 mph is the biggest cap I’ve ever seen
“He broke every bone in his body” -Hollywood
I guess its karma he looks like he jumped out of the 70s with that outfit
Groin pull to end all groin pulls
120mph
Aiiiiii
This reminded me of the gernot crash i lil bit…..glad there wasnt any blood in this….(i still have that scene in my dreams)
The same happend to me today
Not worse than Grneau
Not worse than Gernot Rainstadler
I thought he hit large snow grooming equipment
That’s one way to win the race
I once skiied at 24.5 mph. So I know just how this feels.
Go back to school and learn metric system
Das waren Niemals 245 mph !!!
