Two British skiers were pulled from the snow alive after being buried by an avalanche for nearly an hour.
The pair, who were skiing in the Spanish Pyrenees, found themselves trapped under the snow after the incident at around 10.30am on Wednesday morning.
Spanish officials say the tourists were able to get help after calling the emergency services on their phones while stuck.
Mountain rescuers and two helicopters were called out to find them, and they were later taken to hospital with what are thought to be non-life threatening injuries.
