An 80-year-old German skier died Wednesday on the down slope in Lech, Austria, a police spokesperson said, dpa reported.

The man was skiing down on a groomed slope on his way to the lift station when he suddenly collapsed, apparently from heart and circulatory problems.

Resuscitation attempts by a physician who happened to be skiing by failed, as did the efforts of a rescue team summoned for help.
