Michael Schumacher reportedly hit his head on a snow-covered rock on this slope at Meribel Resort.

Schumacher, who was an expert skiier, is still in a critical, hour-to-hour condition. Doctors have placed him in a medically-induced coma to help his brain heal after two surgeries to reduce swelling caused by striking his head on the rock with enough force to crack his helmet.
