Epic Chairlift Fails From The 80's

Snow, VideosGuest UserMarch 29, 2016fails, chairlift, funnyComment

If you've ever skied or snowboarded, then you've been there. Those feelings of fear and anxiety as you get off a chair lift for the first few times.

I remember it well. I'm one of those people where things take a little longer than usual to learn so I spent a lot of time bailing out on chairlifts, leaping off them as they turned around and taking out everyone around me. Oh, and I have been known to say to strangers on the chair, "is it ok if I hold on to you as we get off the lift?".

This video by Warren Miller brings back some memories. And for some reason, because it's filmed in the 80's, it's just a whole lot funnier.

Enjoy!

Do You Know The Alpine Responsibility Code?

I could have been seriously hurt. There are universal rules when skiing and snowboarding, applicable to everyone, worldwide. Commonly known as the Alpine Responsibility Code, it is endorsed and used by most ski areas around the world with slight variations. Ultimately, it's about using some common sense and personal awareness to reduce elements of risk.
