This could be you

Given how clumsy I can be, when I saw this story (and, in particular, the accompanying pictures), I had one of those there-but-for-the-grace-of-God-go-I moments. I've fallen plenty of times getting off the lift, and I came really close to falling off of a lift when we were in Zermatt and I forgot to take my backpack off before getting on the lift, so I found myself basically hanging one cheek on and one cheek off. And of course there was the time we both fell off a T-bar together when our skis crossed. But thankfully, I've never actually ended up upside down and pantsless on a ski slope (at least that anyone knows about)...
