They survived, Alan.

But three skiers were killed before the helo got there

Well, I'm not surprised about the skiers - stupid people do stupid things
and skiing in that kind of terrain is.... stupid.

Glad the heli-crew were ok. Not bad when you consider one of them had 10
tonnes of metal roll over him.
