In the southern city of Dunedin, heavy snowfall led to the shutdown of schools and the closure of the famous Baldwin Street – recognised as the world’s steepest residential road. Undeterred, locals and visitors strapped on skis and snowboards, gliding down the icy slope while filming their daring descents. The videos quickly went viral on social platforms, highlighting the unique way the community embraced the unexpected winter wonderland.
