The case when "unlucky" is too mild a word:
At a ski resort in North Carolina, a ski lift with a skier stuck right above a broken pipe.

Surely you could grab a snowboard and atleast slightly re-direct the flow/fountain/geyser...

Can.. can we install this “feature” in the Supreme Court?

Each time I see this I cannot for the life of me understand why the lifts aren’t moving. Someone hated this guy and stopped the ride
ferengilovesongs69
The original video shows this guy getting blasted over ten minutes and has to drop to the ground. Again lifts are separate from pipes.So why

Person videoing is either panicking, laughing hard or has some kind of mobility disorder.

If there's any vehicle in area, park ot over it, or go grab door from hut and deflect it. But get CHOICE YouTube footage 2st

I don't know, this bidet seems a bit excessive.
Housemaster
MightyMile
So fresh and clean after though.
VaultGirl69
How do you dry your parts after using one of those?
ATastyCorpsesicle
Using a bidet doesn't mean you don't use toilet paper. It just makes the latter's job easier.
MeowWoof
Mine has an air blower. But you still use paper to dry, just half as much or less.
ChocoladeMelkSnor
At first I thought it was a geyser and someone being cooked alive. Still not great though…
sarahsaurroar
At least it wasn't a sewer pipe.
shimmernshine
are you sure about that?

“Unlucky” in the moment, assuming they survive hypothermia, I suspect that court case will pay well.

Nah... This person did something horrible.
AFistfulOfDollHairs
Not everyone is American you know.
SmilinSloth
If they're smart they will take a lesser amount of out court. Trying to sue them would cost you money + you get nothing.
SideBoobsWillGetYouBanned
Tell me you are from the US without telling me you are from the US. The "I can sue" mentality from any accident is strange to me 1/2
Kalthramis
Because a lawsuit is the only way anything will happen here.
SideBoobsWillGetYouBanned
no wonder you've got 100 pages T&C on everything. 2/2
DrLivingstoneIpresume
This happened in North Carolina, which is located in America.

It's also a consequence of our terrible health care system. Only way to afford the medical bills is to make the company pay
ruferto
"they could have moved the lift fwd like... 2 feed. even like a foot and a half!"
Frederf
Duurrrr company policy is to halt the lift in all emergencies.
Judany73
Based on the debris I wonder if the pipe damaged the lift or some infrastructure and they had no way to move it.
circlebreaker
Assumed the mechanical parts of a chairlift, like any other machine, can be moved (albeit with difficulty) manually in worst-case scenarios?
InvadingYourSpaces
A power outage might've caused a pressure event. Those are the snowmaking pipes, and some auto-shutoff might've burst the lines between.
bladderinfection
I would have tried to deflect it using a snowboard. It absolutely would stop nothing, but it could have eased some of the blast.
sandwiched
I thought the same thing. It totally could have helped deflect the flow enough to give the riders a respite. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
ServerMonkeyKing
Or shoved a snowboard up their ass when it gets ripped out of your hands.

He will make history: the first man to drown on a ski lift.

They probably did classify it as a failed drowning

Same. I want mine to be humorous.

Don't worry theres a medical code for that
KellyCrazyCatLadyinTraining
I’m laughing hysterically because the new medical codes are so ridiculously specific like that! XD
PhurbuMukpodom
And there is probably a separate IDC-10 one for “second incident”
chicharrone
I'll argue he could've been MoRE unlucky- that could be sewage
ziggystardust7
if it were nobody would be standing that close prbly
Bunhyung
So does this count as a shallow water drowning?
Velina
its not necessarily liquid drowning at all
Bunhyung
I would guess that the pipe is for transporting water up the hill for snowmaking purposes.
Velina
honestly hadn't considered that, never worked a ski slope. makes sense though i had just assumed it was some gas.
ohfudgecicles
Yo, I just laughed so hard that my tampon slipped loose. Thank you. I needed that.

YACK!! ?

Oh I would have jumped and sacrificed my legs bones.

I feel like the people on the ground with snow boards should have at least attempted to divert it by putting the board over it
