Vitanza, Mike Masters, Wayne Mallory, Harry Clexx, Jean Paul King. 520 Dr. Glenn Barton, a physician who studies human performance, works with downhill skiiers to assess their endurance. He embarks on a solo rescue operation after failing to convince members of the ski team to accompany him on a search for avalanche victims during unsafe conditions. The brave doctor locates the avalanche site and digs through heavy snow to uncover a station wagon containing four victims. Just as he is about to pull them out, a second avalanche occurs, trapping the doctor in the car with the others. Eventually, the victims and doctor are saved by other ski team members. The doctor reminds his colleagues, "Man has no limits except his own fears." 590 PFA 1612-01-3907. |aCONDITION NOTE: Last checked: June 17, 2002, film slightly warped. 650 0 Avalanches. 650 0 Search and rescue operations. 650 0 Skis and skiing|xAccidents and injuires. 655 7 Television.|2mim 655 7 Medical drama.|2mim 655 7 Sports drama.|2mim 655 7 Pilot programs.|2mim 700 1 Lang, Otto,|d1908-2006. 700 1 Tors, Ivan. 700 1 Levitt, Gene. 700 1 Hoffman, Robert. 700 1 Engen, Sverre. 700 1 Kinoshita, Robert. 700 1 Lincoln, Al. 700 1 Adams, Warren H. 700 1 Nader, George. 700 1 Best, James. 700 1 Raymond, Paula. 700 1 Karnes, Robert. 700 1 Towne, Aline,|d1930-1996. 700 1 Conrad, Robert. 700 1 Drake, Ken. 700 1 Vitanza, A.G. 700 1 Masters, Mike. 700 1 Mallory, Wayne. 700 1 Clexx, Harry. 700 1 King, Jean Paul. 710 2 ZIV Television (Firm) 710 2 Ivan Tors Films, Inc. 935 GLADN184888259 946 PFA 1612-01-3907.
