accident skier takes nice fall and slides >1km (he's also lucky AF)

[Bill Murray]

No gore, just some guy who took a fall on some fresh piste (groomed/packed snow) but doesn't know how to stop.



A couple of things. One, he admits he should have been able to have stop himself by rolling on to his stomach and digging in the tip of one of his poles. Two, at the speed he was going he was lucky not to have hurt himself. With his feet & legs flailing about he could have easily caught a toe or heal and started spinning resulting in a tib/fib, hip, arm or shoulder fracture or badly pulled something. And he better hope someone is nice enough to pick up his skis at the top of the hill or he's got a bitch of a hike to get them

Never been really in winter sports but maybe I'd tried to stop the rush by ramming both grips of the sticks into the snow.

Good thing for him it was a nicely groomed hill. If there was trees in the way and he smacked into one, he be a goner.

weeeeeeeeee its as much fun on de ass as its on the skies

 

[Windowshopper]

For real ya, he could've been really badly hurt. BUT, have you even tobogganed down a ski hill? Get as fast as you can in a straight line and hope not to Sonny Bono a tree...

He isn't going to get his driver's license or his deposit back from the ski rental. Though he is lucky they popped off, he likely would have severely broken both his legs if they hadn't.

I ran into a tree taking ski lessons when I was 10ish. They took us down a side path, the trail forked and I chose the 3rd least popular route tree in center. I got to ride down in a sweet medical sled bed with some hottie Ski instructer who must've been 20😍

Why pay for an expensive set of skis when you can enjoy the mountain just the same on the free ass that god gave you

his sphincter was too puckered up, for some freshly packed snow!
