How horrible. :( Rode on a ski lift with my elder kid this summer and was sweating bullets. Tried to comfort me.....but couldn’t resist the teenaged jokes. Terrified of heights.

OMG. Without thinking, I got on the Alpine lift at Knoebels Amusement Park in Elysburg, PA this summer with my son. It took 15 minutes to complete the loop and I was frozen in fear. There’s only a bar across your lap. I panted the whole time.

Many years ago I saw a child fall off a ski lift.

Happened about 60 feet after getting on it.

Mom had a grasp on the child but was slipping.

Employees sprinted like champs underneath them with a net.

They saved the day. Child fell about 20 feet, with skis on, into the net. It was cool.
