Man slips, plunges into canyon crevasse
A man has been filmed peering curiously over the edge of a French canyon and then suddenly losing his footing.
Video shows the wetsuited adventurer plunging 6m down a gaping crevasse of the Canyon Groin in the Rhône-Alpes region of southeast France.
The man lands with a splash into water at the bottom of the canyon as the group he is travelling with look on in horror, having had almost no time to react.
