This isn't your everyday snow sweeping, "it's like moving a refrigerator". A tourist to the Yellowstone National Park caught a workman expertly remove gigantic blocks of snow on the roof of the Canyon General Store on her camera recently. The 7-foot deep snow was divided into blocks weighing about 700 pounds each and then slid down the roof. "It's like moving a refrigerator", the female tourist described what she saw in the footage.

Yellowstone National Park is a 3,500 square-foot wilderness reserve situated on top of a volcanic hot spot and it is the world's first national park. Due to the longest government shutdown in the US history, a number of park operations were forced to be suspended and only resumed on January 28.
