A viral video series filmed by Tina Debove shows her skiing down the steep, snow-covered streets of Montmartre in Paris on January 7, 2026, as a rare bout of heavy snowfall blanketed the French capital and disrupted travel.

Shot in a GoPro-style format, the clips capture Debove dressed in black ski gear as she glides past historic buildings and amused onlookers, transforming the iconic hilltop neighbourhood into an impromptu ski run. The videos were shared with the caption “Used my free will,” reflecting a playful, spontaneous response to the city’s unusual winter conditions.

The scenes were widely celebrated online for their lighthearted defiance of everyday norms, echoing other moments of Parisians embracing the snowfall by turning familiar urban spaces into temporary winter playgrounds.
