Skier Suffers Exposure

In a bizarre incident that will surely lead to litigation (or an out-of-court settlement), a skier at Colorado's ritzy Vail resort was left dangling upside down and pantsless from a chairlift last Friday morning. » Full Story on The Smoking Gun

aww, come on now - it wasn't bad enough to hang the poor guy by his skis; the lift operators had to pants him too?

Take a closer look at the photo. The moron is a snow boarder, not a skier (not a surprise to all skiers out there).

Dingleberry: How useless is he? I am not James Bond but I would like to think that I would have done a sit-up, grabbed onto the bottom of the lift, and figured something out instead of dangling like a dingleberry naked in the sky for a good 15 minutes. And now he will probably sue… he should sue Little Debbie for making him out of shape and sue his parents for giving him one less chromosome than a chimp.

And if things aren't bad enough, you have to take in account cold-weather-shrinkage.

okay ebrown262 - the man was a skiier not a snowboarder - did you forget to read the story? - it was his right leg and ski caught in the chair that caused him to hang upside down ... poor sop...

I want to know how his pants came down. Most of us wear a belt to prevent this sort of thing.

The photographer who shot the photo, on his own time and with his own camera, was fired by Vail Resorts because he had signed a "no-competeclause" and this photo reflected poorly on the corporation. Tsk tsk.

This is clearly a joke. And a really funny one at that. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the dude was put up to this by Johnny knoxville.

I laughed so hard I cried - one question - How the hell does that happen? Talk about having bad luck? Fall off a lift and lose your pants at the same time.
