Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Toughest liftie job in skiing

Must be a re-run (and a shameless x post from TGR and poach of a old Warren Miller idea) but still entertaining - fixed grip chair and first timers.

fatbob, it is indeed a re-run, but I never tire of it. A classic. Very Happy

Talking of shameless, it's watching some of the bigger people that had me smiling wryly, watching their awful attempts at 'helping' their (probably much more capable) smaller counterparts off the chair when they themselves should have spent another day or two in lessons on the nursery slope. Smile

There was a classic in Soldeu a few years ago. Can't remember which chair it was but, the exit was too high, so people were struggling to stand up. People were falling from nearly every chair.

I wish I'd had a video camera with me, as it could've made a fortune from You've Been Framed.

andyph, I didn't watch the one in the OP until you posted this, because (Seeing Hurtle's response) I thought that was the one fatbob had posted.

Maybe it's just me but i don't get what's so funny about watching beginners fall of chairlifts?

frank4short, if I imagine that these really are beginners falling over, it's not funny really. But if I imagine it's a set-up (surely!?) then it kills me. Belongs at the top of the practical joke thread. Toofy Grin

I've seen the 2nd one before. It's not until you tangle with one you realise just what unstoppable objects ski lifts are and how much weight can be in them. Anything from Poma & T bars to full blown 8 seater chairs seems able to do you a mischief. In fact at the risk of mentioning the H word, it's been mistakes on ski lifts (partic. chairs) rather than any other form of ski accident that make me see the wisdom in wearing one - I've taken more than a couple of really solid cracks on the nut from lifts that I've misjudged and think that wearing a H has probably saved me from some rather nasty bruises, possible knockouts and gashes.

Yep the WME (probably in the days when it was still Warren himself) is the classic but I've always suspected that the off ramp was specially iced for comic effect on that. the Mt Rose just illustrates the sheer number of problems a fixed grip chair gives and my amusement is in the lifties running around rather than the fallers after all we've all been there ( & in my case still am when on a snowboard wink
