Pro skier Peter Silver Gillespie takes to the slopes in this amazing shot — skiing on TOP of a snow centre. The 39-year-old ski ace — an internationally qualified ski coach and an examiner of ski instructors — took to the 160m-long roof on the Snow Centre to take advantage of the deluge of real snow that has hit the UK this week.

Despite the massive snowfall across the UK, the number of visitors to the centre in the last few days has rocketed.

Onlooker Any Harrison, 24, said: “It was weird — this guy just started skiing down the roof and nobody knew what was going on.

“Some people called the police because they thought he might hurt himself but it turned out to be just a bit of fun. I suppose you can’t blame him, he was taking advantage of the snow on the roof.”

The £23m centre — which uses real snow — opened last year.
