I was there when it happened and his ding a ling was visible and everything! The pics are SFW. We stared at him for a while then took tea cup away from the scene because we knew it would take a while! It surprised me it took them that long to put the chair in reverse. He was hanging over the river! It really shouldn't have taken that long!:eek:

I'm now terrified of chair lifts............. lol

[EmptiMind]

And that's why I wear a belt! I think I'm going to invest in suspenders too... Maybe some good metal, unbreakable suspenders........

I saw this over on TGR and they said that they forgot to put the seat down when he loaded and was fine for a while then just started slipping throughthe chair frame and then....well you know the rest.

His poor little kid next to him was probably all freaked out! That is terrible yet funny... sue for sure. How embarrassing!

The whole day my friends and ib were saying "the one day you don't wear underwear is the day the paramedics get to you."

I think his binding manufacturer just scored huge. Some things are just too good.

If I were the dude I'd press for a lifetime lift pass and lifetime jjue sized lunch. Throw in lifetime skiboard maintenance and I'd settle.
