You’re never too old to join in the fun. A 99-year-old woman helped Bismarck, North Dakota, recapture a snow-angel-making world record.
Pick a clear spot in the snow as tall as your body and as wide as your outstretched arms.
Fresh powder works best—make a snow angel right after a storm, when the snow is untouched.
Carefully fall backward onto the snow with your arms outstretched.
Move your arms and legs back and forth, like you’re doing jumping jacks.
Press your head back enough to make a clear indentation.
Get up carefully so you don’t wreck your masterpiece. For best results, have a friend help you up.
In 2002, 1,791 people in Bismarck, North Dakota, made snow angels on the state capitol grounds.
