I've been through much much much worse snow with xDrive cars (where it goes half the way up the wheels), and it was not bad at all. With the amount of snow shown here, my car would have barely been bothered.
I feel this picture was staged, mostly as a snickery joke. Call me skeptical.
What do you guys think?

Of course it's true, it's simply a moron, there are millions of them worldwide, actually more of them than there are BMWs. That's what happens when you don't know how to drive in the snow, and don't account for ground clearance.
I'm not in this situation right now, but if I were the driver, enabling DTC and rocking back and forth while trying to find the traction with the front wheels by turning them in all directions is the way to get unstuck.
Not to bash this person, nor to say I've never gotten stuck (well I haven't but that's neither here nor there, and I will knock on wood), but you need to know how to drive in your current conditions.
