Warren Miller is an adventure/estreme skier production.

The history of Warren Miller ski films is rather long, you can find more about him here or their website here.

This was a great video and area to ski and getting on Russian helicopters like that is an adventure by itself!  When I skied in Dizin I always thought what it'd be like if I could ski in those areas where there are no lifts, now I know!

I can never be an extreme skier but sure like to watch them conquer those mountains! 

Everything is sacred

Especially towards the end which BTW comes quite abruptly! What is with the irrelevant music at the begining?!!

Amazing. I wish they showed less chadoor and molla and more of the nice things in Iran.

Nice video! The skiing part reminds me of the scene from James Bond's movie! It takes a lot of faith to get on a helicopter in Iran!
