A video filmed by X user Thomas Soullet Photo captures a hiker enduring brutal winds up to 187 km/h during Storm Benjamin on October 23, 2025, at the 1,632-meter summit of Puy de la Tache.

Recorded in thick fog and mist, the clip shows the hiker in a bright orange jacket crouching on a steep grassy slope. He braces himself and grips rocks for stability as powerful gusts sweep across the mountain, flattening the vegetation and limiting visibility.

The relentless wind bends the landscape, while the hiker struggles to maintain his footing against the force of the storm. Each surge of air echoes through the fog, creating an overwhelming sense of tension and exposure.

The raw sound of the wind dominates the footage, highlighting the intensity and isolation of the scene. The video delivers a dramatic look at human endurance against one of nature’s most extreme moments.
