That’s some impressive engineering for non of those fixed grips to detach at such extreme angles

[@yushikuang7877]

Omg who are crazy enough to go skiing under these weather conditions!

[@skijump25]

probably wasn't like that when they got to the hill. I was skiing earlier in about 50 mph winds and it wasn't even that windy on the chairlift

[@TowManDave00]

wow...that's crazy !

Ptn enorme c'est encore mieux qu'un parc d'attraction

[@Thelift2013]

that one chair swinging so much that if it fell it could fall on the others next to it

[@Retikulum01]

Nah

[@peakart8850]

Skiing is amazing, though. Don’t let this discourage you if you were thinking of trying it.

[@neo7602]

Trankil sans problème sans pression xd

[@skijump25]

its not faulty nesicarily if that's all that happened from those chairs flying around like that then it's really well engineered

[@user-dj4mb2eb3z]

ワイヤーが痛みそうですね。

[@iceiejest103]

Are there wolves in these ski resorts? I watched Frozen 2010 and they didn't end up well.

[@stoutair01]

Do stupid things win stupid prizes
The damn storm was there all day and you still got on!!! No sympathy

[@gaittr]

Then why are they running a chair lift? What a bunch of whatever's
