Ski Tragedy in Swiss Alps

A British skier dies after crashing into a river near Grindelwald, Switzerland. The 54-year-old lost control while on a sanctioned run, veering off-piste into the Rychenbach Stream. Despite medical efforts after an airlift to Bern, he succumbed to injuries on April 12. Authorities are probing what caused the tragic mishap. The Rychenbach locale notably hosts the fictional showdown of Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty. With a surge in fatal ski accidents recently, this highlights the enduring risks of Alpine sports.
