Drone footage captured the moment as an unidentied snowboarder daredevil in St. Petersburg, Russia ripped through the Russian cultural capital's famed Palace Square on Thursday towed by car, cruising through the snow around the famous Alexander Column. Heavy snowfall in St. Petersburg made it all possible as nearly nine inches of snow fell on the city, causing major traffic problems in the northern city of over 6 million inhabitants. The young man was pulled by a car at high speed through the nearly-empty square at nighttime, ripping through the snowfall with tight corners and spins right in front of the Hermitage Museum. Police were watching nearby, making sure that no harm came to the snowboarder or any of Saint Petersburg's cultural landmarks.
