Dusseldorf is to install a jump in its check-in hall later this week. It's part of a travel exhibition.
The 40m long jump will allow snowboarders and freestyle skiers to make jumps of up to 10m from the real snow surface, which will be opened by the former British Olympic ski jumper Eddie "the Eagle" Edwards.
It is part of the 7th annual TravelSuperMart which takes place February 6 - 7 at Germany's third largest airport.
It's a travel and tourism consumer show with exhibits by airlines, tour operators, destinations, and bureaus.
The event is free and open on both days from 11:00 am - 6:00 pm.
More than 80,000 passengers and visitors are expected to pass by the exhibit.
