Over-exposed skier in Vail Colorado

This has probably been the most widely repeated water cooler story so far this year.

An unfortunate skier was caught in an embarrassing chairlift mishap at the Vail, Colorado ski resort.

A 48-year-old man was not injured after being suspended for approximately seven minutes.

The unnamed skier dangled trouserless upside down until help arrived.

The chairlift's fold-down seat was not in the correct position causing the man to partially fall through the gap.

The only injuries were to his dignity and pride.
