Anyone remember hearing about taht kid that got caught on the ski lift by his backpack last year? I forget where that was though but i just found some video of it, sorry if its been posted already. But the kid makes a huge bombhole, ill give him a 10 for sticking the landing.

Im surprised I havent seen this posted on here before...but ya actually its kind of a boring video other than when he falls. Otherwise its just like 2 minutes of some beater tourists talking.

I know a little grommit who fell about 25 feet to groomed ice, it was pretty gnarly. Made a small dent in the Groomed Ice. Grommit was fine though, bruised hip. Didn't ski the next day though. He charged the day after that one though.

my friend is an instructor and she had a little girl slip under the safety bar, but she was holding onto her cliff hanger style. then she dropped the little girl 27 feet onto a flat groomer. little girl was perfectly fine. one month later another kid fell in the exact spot and got a concusion or something.

That was at PCMR, off of the McConkey's Lift, the liftie wasn't paying attention and the chair had already exited the terminal before the stop was hit. Kid was not hurt in this accident, was skiing later that day and the next. Liftie on the other hand was tested for drug use immediately and fired. Oh yeah and this shit happens all the time


This shit happened too long ago to even post you newschoolers need to get with it.

Well everyone's already stated the obvious. The guy filming cracks me up though, the best thing he could come up with was

"Holy cow, how did that happen?!"

dude i was a chair rider, and we had to make sure the little kids were safe on the lift and stuff. but there was always the one squirmy little fat kid that you know if anything happened you certainly wouldn't be able to hang onto them. one time, the albino chair rider dropped a kid from the lift. and so did alex. i saw that shit. kid thought it was fun, skied down and got on the lift.

once I got stuck, but the liftie stopped it in time and I jsut dangled a few feet above, till my backpack broke. It was pretty damn funny.
