Regele Charles a scăpat ca prin minune dintr-o tragedie petrecută în Elveția. Prietenul său nu a supraviețuit
King Charles recently reflected on the 1988 avalanche that nearly claimed his life, discussing its lasting impact on his view of mountains. During a meeting with Assynt Mountain Rescue, he recounted the tragic event in Switzerland where a close friend died. The king emphasized the importance of understanding mountain risks and expressed respect for rescue teams. The avalanche occurred on March 10, 1988, resulting in the death of Major Hugh Lindsay, a close friend of Charles. Despite the tragedy, Klosters remains significant for the royal family, although Charles has since given up winter sports. A recent incident at Radio Caroline mistakenly announced the king's death, leading to a serious error classification by Ofcom.
