Poor kid. That had to be terrifying. He actually managed to hold off the inevitable panic attack for quite awhile. And a good move by the rescuers to just let him chill up on on the chairlift after freeing his arms before actually lowering him down.

Issac kept his composure for so long. He didn't let himself panic until he was sure the help had arrived. That was really well done on his part for a kid his age. At 22 I was in a very scary situation on a cliff, but much less scary than this, and I had my first ever panic attack and it took a lot to pull myself together.

Actually if anything he really needed someone to sit there and continually pop him questions and just keep talking to him 100% of the time to keep his mind off the pain!! No body kept talking to him and so that's another reason why he'd stream to as the pain just keep increasing as the circulation was cut off... They didnt do a good job in my mind to keep him distracted... That's the best situation for that poor kid was for someone to use distraction techniques to keep his mind off the pain and on other things!! They should have just keep peppering him with questions for him to answer!

The amount of anxiety this gave me..

Kids are maniacs out there. I've been on the lift when they suddenly stand up and start bouncing the lifts up and down. The oscillation grows and grows because of wave mechanics and before you know everyone within several hundred feet of them are holding on for dear life. I pray none of you ever have to experience this, I've had to twice. I came within inches of beating one group of 14 year old butts to a pulp. They had half the people in terrified tears. This is directed at you So.Cal. riders and resorts. Put an end to this stupidity!

Everyone lowers it, everyone. Sure, nice that people can manage to go up without it but if something unexpected happens it will safe you or others riding with you. And its not even a disadvantage. It is literally more comfortable since you have something for your hands and feet to rest on

@becker1264

@Sussy ass motherfucka yeah i just checked that (probably for profit reasons) ski lifts in the US seem to be mostly outdated, having only 2 to 4 seats, without cushions and they stay on the same cable at the same speed, meaning they dont switch to a separate cable when in the station for you to sit down slowly. Therefore the the overall speed is slower reducing the risk. Does that also hold true for your resort, otherwise i dont really get it since the modern ones are usually very comfortable... some very new ones even automatically lower the bar

But if you listen close you can hear the ski patrol say he looked awful blue, indicating some strangulation, just after they rescued him... Now if you didn't see it its because when they freed him they just let him sit up there and relax for a bit for him to calm down and for the blue to go outta his skin! But i can believe it if they said his face and hands were blue!! Its a good thing Ski Patrol worked as fast as they could have to free him because seconds sure counted in that situation!! Now yeah I could see you not thinking of using distraction as a method of keeping him calm however because it was a tense situation and no one knew if he was "caught good" or hanging in there by a thread, so yeah that definitely would have been a VERY TENSE situation.

I’m not saying its right, but a lot of experienced skiers don’t bother with the safety bar. It’s actually pretty hard to fall off a ski lift mid-ride. The vast majority of ski-lift incidents occur during loading/unloading. If its particularly windy, or its a lift that I know serves a lot of beginner runs-which means more less-experienced skiers (who also tend to have issues loading/unloading and leads to more mid-ride halts on the lift), I’ll put the bar down.

Many people ski with a backpack. They can use the backpack to carry water, food, hand warmers, cell phones, etc. I'm not sure how it got caught in the chair, but somehow it got stuck in the area where the handle meets the seat. The resort suggests that if you are going to wear a backpack, that you remove it before you enter the lift and hold it on your lap.
