At our ski resort while I was working my little brother (16) was telling me about a guy he saw just laying in the trail with some people next to him calling out his name. My brother thought it was just a seizure or something but today while riding we found out the guy had some head trauma and had gone into cardiac arrest, he couldn't be revived. So what does an older brother do for a traumatized little brother? Make fun of him and laugh at him of course.

My friend was in the hills here in UT, and was walking around. After she turned a corner, some guy was waiting for her, and shot himself in the face right when she saw him. He was waiting for anyone to watch him die. She did. Oye.

there is a statistic that says that kids who have seen death are more likely to kill their family. Have fun with karma, bitch.

I thought I saw a 5 year old kid die at okemo over february break. I was 3 chairs behind him on the main quad and he slipped and fell 30 feet. It looked terrible when we went over him, but fortunately he only broke his leg.

this happened last year, i think its pretty funny. so my friends little brother knocks himself out really bad and doesn't move forever and the ambulance comes and shit. my friend wasn't worried but his little little sister was, this is how it went.
little sister "Dusty, will Dale be ok?(almost crying)"
dusty " yeah moms probably gonna yell at him and shit. hes gonna be in trouble.(walks away like nothing had happened while his little sister was still freaking out)
the situation wasn't funny but the way he said it and was acting was funny

i know this kid, who was in the next room when his dad committed suicide. he heard the gunshot, saw his dad on the floor, flipped shit while his mom tried to keep him out of the room...he's pretty fucked up now, tons of mental issues.

i know a kid like that too. his name is austin but he tells everyone to call him shadow. he dosent shower, he wears black makeup on his face, one funny thing is that he cant clip his fingernails with his left hand so he asks girls to do it for him. hes really weird, but if you talk to him hes actuially a kind of cool kid.... kind of, and then he digs his un cut finger nails inot your neck.

i was the chair one ahead of you, and one behind his parents. apparently he was with his aunt on the chair. imagine being the mom or dad and having to watch that happen!! i always hold the little kiddies i ride up with in even when they get mad at me for it. . . the summit is windy!

in early january on blackcomb, i saw that man plummet down the band of cliffs just off of glacierexpress chair by secret bowl, about 150 feet total. he died instantly. then about a week and a half ago i saw a pedestrian get annihilated by a car, however they did not die, but it was pretty crazy

I know someone who watched the same thing happen when they were young. It scarred him for life and now he can never be the skiier he was capable of being. Hes super cautious and doesnt really like the sport, he only puts up with it because the rest of his family loves it.

watching people die is gnarly and a 16 yr old should be able to handle it himself. im 14 and i watched one of the people die at mammoth that one wkn wer like 6 ppl died. but everyone handles stuff differently

yea when I was 16 I was aware of things. I didnt need to be told things, I learned, and if my older bro laughed at me, (if I had one) I would spit in his face, and tell him to go watch someone die.

That's what Dr. Phil is for...I understand some incidents can be traumatic, but he was fine so not a huge mental impact...

When I was 8 I was with my mom behind a motorcycle and a tractor came out into the street and the motorcycle was flying (55 ish) and he hit the tractor...needless to say the guy on the tractor was mutilated and the guy on the motorcycle flew about 30 feet and rolled another 15...I watched the guy motionless die and be put in a body bag...yeah it sucked and I was only 8 but no mental scars here
