Chapter 394 Alive, really alive!
“Ahem.”
Bifang couldn't stop coughing because of the cold air. When he raised his head and looked at the live broadcast room again, he suddenly found that the live broadcast room, which was originally bustling and full of barrages, suddenly became refreshing, just like a pine tree shaking off the snow.
Strange, why is no one talking suddenly?
For a long while.
[Fuck, Lao Fang is alive! ]
[It’s over. I just prayed that my roommate would be single for the rest of his life in exchange for Fang Shen’s safety. Now my roommate will be single for the rest of his life.]
【Roommate:? 】
[Roommate: Thank you so much]
[Awesome, they survived the avalanche! Who else? ]
[It’s over. I just yelled too loudly. My mom asked me why I wasn’t sleeping yet.]
[Awesome, brother, you are absolutely awesome! ]
"They survived! They survived! They're okay, oh my god, they're okay!"
Inside the Arctic Circle, Elwan hugged Lennon's shoulders tightly and jumped up and down.
"Yes, yes, God will bless kind people." Lennon stroked his beard and laughed heartily.
Étienne ran around the open lake, shouting: "They are so great! They are so great! Oooooh!"
In the brightly lit building, the staff on duty immediately contacted Li Yawen and told him the good news as soon as possible.
"Boss, Fang Shen has started broadcasting!"
In the living room, Li Yawen, who saw Bifang was safe and sound, pounded the table with his fist: "Damn it, I knew this guy wouldn't die so easily. Damn it, my blood pressure is up."
Yao Xuehui opened the drawer and swallowed the antihypertensive medicine with boiled water. He sat in the chair and took a long breath. The woman beside him gently stroked his chest to help him breathe smoothly.
"This rebellious son, he does all kinds of nonsense all day long. If he had the time, he could have advertised his own brand! It makes me so angry."
"Oh, that's enough. You're the one who's always bothering. You get angry when the child has problems, and you get angry when nothing happens. I'm afraid you're not made of a balloon."
In the brightly lit building, the sound of objects breaking and low roars could be heard from time to time.
"What happened to the boss? Did the stock fund fall? Or did he find out that the child is not his?" It was exactly the same situation, but it was Little B who asked Little A.
Little A looked at Bifang scanning the environment on the phone screen and laughed: "Maybe the business plan we just put together went bankrupt before it even started. But what does this have to do with us? We are just employees. You won't get the money if the company makes money, and the company won't go bankrupt and lay off employees if it loses money."
Little B was stunned for a moment, as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened. He slowly put down the documents in his hand and picked up the mug beside him.
The sounds of smashing and looting continued. Little A and Little B listened to the noise in the office, held their coffee in their hands, looked up at the sky, took a sip of coffee and exhaled a mouthful of hot steam.
Every time a fish is touched, a boss loses his dream.
[Lin Chang gave the anchor a spaceship *1.0 - compensate me for sleep! ]
[Oh my god, why is the second-ranked guy not sleeping in the middle of the night? The reason is because of him! ]
[What's going on with this cave? Why is there a cave?]
[Fang Shen, you finally stopped pretending, urban superpower! ]
[I'm laying my cards on the table. I'm not going to pretend anymore. I'm taking out my transformation device. That's right, I am the light! ]
The audience looked around from Bifang's perspective and found that the space they were in was actually not small, almost as big as a small bus.
Exhaling a puff of cold mist, Bifang sat on the ground and took a deep breath to explain: "Just now, we encountered an avalanche. Except for the two missing Sherpa guides, the other people in the team are in stable physical condition. Apart from some scratches, they are not seriously injured."
What can fly without wings? What can fight without fists? What can see without eyes?
This is a riddle that has been circulating in Europe since the Middle Ages.
The answer is an avalanche.
Avalanche, also known as the white death.
When an avalanche occurs, the accumulated snow continuously collapses from the top of the mountain down the mountainside under the action of gravity. It is extremely fast and has great impact, often razing everything to the ground.
According to statistics, avalanche is the biggest natural risk leading to fatal accidents in winter outdoor sports, no doubt about it!
Bifang leaned against the snow wall, feeling extremely fortunate. There had been many avalanches on Mount Everest, with the Khumbu Glacier being the hardest hit area, and most of them occurred in the early morning.
This is mainly related to the topography of the Khumbu Glacier.
When the internal cohesive force of the snow on the hillside cannot resist the "pull" of gravity it is subjected to, it slides downward, causing a large amount of snow to collapse.
The Tianshan Snow and Avalanche Research Station of the Chinese Academy of Sciences once discovered that avalanches are most likely to occur on slopes with a slope of about 40 degrees, which coincides with the terrain of the Khumbu Glacier.
Once you are in danger, it is almost impossible to wait for rescue. If you really wait, your body will have already become part of the glacier and be buried there forever.
Perhaps just like the story Bifang told before, a century later it will reappear before people with the movement of glaciers.
When the audience on the screen heard that it was Yingtou Bingpo who protected the Bifang people, they could hardly believe that it was true.
[The mountain god appeared, this must be the mountain god appearing! ]
[Fuck, this is too awesome]
【Is it true that good people are rewarded? 】
"I have demonstrated surviving an avalanche before, but I didn't expect to actually encounter one. Avalanches are usually fatal for three reasons - physical trauma, suffocation and hypothermia. There are corresponding life-saving methods, one is to escape before the avalanche stops, the second is to prevent everyone from being buried, and the third is to reduce the time the trapped people are buried. Under normal circumstances, avalanches cannot kill people. The cause of death is the low temperature and lack of oxygen after being buried. But the snow also contains life-saving oxygen. Ideally, after being buried, you can support your arms to create a breathing space, which can effectively prolong your survival time. If I had broadcast earlier, you would have seen that Sir Alex did this just now. It is a very standard way of self-rescue."
Bifang crossed his hands against his chest. Being suffocated by being buried is different from ordinary suffocation. Once buried tightly, it is almost impossible for the lungs to expand without certain escape techniques to expand the space.
Many avalanche victims suffocate not from a lack of oxygen, but from an inability of their lungs to expand.
"We are very lucky. Avalanches can be divided into many types according to the physical characteristics of the snow and the location of the snow break, but there are basically two types: dry avalanches and wet avalanches."
Bifang grabbed a handful of snow from the snow wall nearby and squeezed it hard with his hands. Miraculously, the snow did not gather into clumps, but instead fell off from his fingers in powdery form, like dry flour.
"What we encountered was a dry avalanche. Friends in the south may not feel anything, but people in the north must have encountered this situation. The snow was as dry as flour and could not be gathered together, so it was impossible to have a snowball fight. This is because the temperature in the north is too low in winter and the air is dry. Dry avalanches are similar."
"When the moisture content of snow is less than 1%, it is generally considered a dry avalanche. When a dry avalanche occurs, due to the low viscosity of the snow, a large number of snow particles collide with each other during movement, and will be suspended in the air to form white smoke. This kind of avalanche will be very spectacular when viewed from high altitude. It is too dark today, but you should be able to see it clearly with the night vision mode."
Indeed, many viewers nodded secretly. Due to the altitude, the drone did not fly very high and it was almost face to face with the avalanche.
The rolling snow waves stretched for hundreds of meters, and the sky was filled with white smoke and dust, almost covering the sky.
"The high-speed smoke will compress the surrounding air, forming a powerful air wave that will destroy everything in its path. After the damage caused by the air wave , the real avalanche will follow, and the heavy snow will cover everything."
[So how lucky is this? I'm crying and laughing]
[Where there is dry there is wet. I guess wet avalanches are more lethal! ]
"That's right." Bifang smiled.
"When the moisture content exceeds 1%, a wet avalanche occurs. Wet avalanches mainly occur when the temperature rises. As the temperature rises, the snow melts and the melted snowwater infiltrates into the snow layer, increasing the moisture content of the snow layer. The infiltrated melted snowwater tends to refreeze into ice crystals, changing the shape of the particles inside the snow. The high temperature induces local collapse of the snow surface. The collapsed snow slides down the slope at an increasingly faster speed, gradually forming snowballs along the way. Therefore, before an avalanche occurs, a large number of snowballs often appear on the hillside . Eventually, the accumulation of a large number of snowballs breaks the calmness of the snow surface and slides down, causing an avalanche. During the slide, the volume of the snowballs continues to increase, and they also carry melted soil and rocks from the surface, making them much more destructive than dry avalanches."
Bifang paused, exchanged air several times before continuing.
"Just think about how dangerous this kind of avalanche is. The power of the rocks swept in is no less than of rocks blown up in a storm. If you are hit, you may be injured at best, or... you know what's going on."
