    A skier was left dangling from a chairlift at an American resort after he became stuck upside-down with his ski trousers round his ankles.

    Photos show the man naked from his waist to his knees, swinging from one leg, and still wearing both skis.

    He became entangled shortly after boarding the Skyline Express lift.

    The lift was stopped and reversed about 12ft (3.6m) before he was freed by the Vail Ski Patrol, Vail Resort said in a statement about the 1 January incident.

    The resort operator said the 48-year-old man was suspended for about seven minutes, but was uninjured.

    Luckily, we dont see his face. I bet this will never be let down by friends and family!

    At that point, I'm pretty sure it was both.

    I'd say he was terrified , and his whole body tightened up.

    Can you imagine the impact if he had been fat? Like a snow tsunami.

    What would probably have happened is that he'd have been suspended semi-naked for several moments, then the ski lift would have broken under his immense bulk. Then they'd find someway to blame the whole incident on his obesity.

    And the story would have snowballed from there.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,859 ✭✭✭✭Sharpshooter
