Once, during a family dinner, my uncle decided to show off his culinary skills by grillin’ some burgers. Act One began with a glorious sizzle and smoke that promised a feast. Unfortunately, the moment he opened the grill lid, a full-on grease fire erupted. In Act Two, he panicked and flailed like a disco dancer out of sync, eventually causing Aunt Martha to grab the nearest fire extinguisher—only to unleash a powdery cloud that looked more like a snowstorm than a fire-fighting effort. By Act Three, we were all left coughing, covered in white powder, and eating takeout pizza because the grill had turned into a disaster scene.
The absurdity was hilarious! While we were all ready to feast on “Uncle Joe’s Famous Burgers,” we ended up having a spontaneous family dinner complete with helicoptering extinguishers and pizza slices. Plus, seeing my uncle’s serious “grill master” expression morph into sheer panic was a sight that will never leave my memory—or our family story archives. Now, anytime someone mentions burgers, we can’t help but remember how a pizza delivery saved the day!

A narrative in three parts
A
They’re lucky they didn’t break their necks. That dude cartwheeling a half dozen times looked like he was probably going to die there if his head connected with a ridge in the snow. Glad they’re all okay.
H
I only see two. And before you say “someone is taking the video”, that was the case for Act I/II as well.
F
My thought exactly.
V
He did die but it was so cold he couldn’t feel it
A
Doubtful. Saw no shoes flying!
S
Cartwheeling head/foot isn’t that bad in snow. I’ve been there many times growing up in BC. Snow, and what looks like powder in the video is usually quite soft. Doesn’t stop you from getting the whits knocked the fuck outta tho.

I ripped a chunk out of my snowboard on a covered rock as I turned onto upper teepee town at sunshine village. I cartwheeled so fast, so long, I couldn’t tell what was sky and what was snow. The powder had a crust, so my outstretched arms would punch through, and I’d go through it face first. I could hear people on the chair lift yelling for other people to “look at that guy!” as I went hands/feet/hands/feet and waited for the world to make sense again. I can verify, it will knock the whits out of you. Surprisingly, when everything finally stopped, I was fine. My face was a little scratched from smashing through ice crust on the top of the powder, and I was probably the most dizzy I’ve ever been in my life, but I was more or less fine. After I tried to stand up numerous times and immediately fell down. I eventually realized I had a piece of snowboard that was only attached by the metal edge and was sticking out like some weird tree branch with fruit on the end. That’s when my brain finally caught up with what just happened. So as long as you avoid trees and rocks, you’ll probably be okay. Would not recommend though.

Haha. I got introduced to some locals at sunshine ages back. The phrase was “hey, are you the guy that keeps popping a 180 over that tree near the lift?” “Yea. Why?” “Man! You’re so smooth. I wanna take you riding tomorrow”. It was an awesome day. BUT! They took me backside to some snow drift thing that had zero visibility it was there until you were damn near flying off it. I landed so hard my board sank and I went ass over teakettle for about 4 flips. It took longer to connect my kit than it took to get there. I want to say they called it Jaws. Great day, great dudes.
I
Guess they didnt want to go a 2nd time dwn..
X
Yep, almost another Schumacher.
O
At least they aren’t walking out of the ER.
V
That’s what I expected the last one to be lol
A
Act I: curiosity. Act II: chaos. Act III: regret Shakespeare would be proud of this modern tragedy.
S
r/Whatcouldgowrong
E
Yes I suppose but honestly, the first act told me everything.
T
That’s what you get for snowboating
L
It’s cold-dogging
E
Everyone has wooden legs now?
A
I’m glad they are alive

Idk man that first guys cartwheel looks to be serious enough to cause a head injury. Not all that funny…
E
We’re all trying to find the guy that did this.
V
the question is. in their mind, what was the “GOOD” outcome?
E
…. Not really that funny tho. Painful, potentially deadly- yes. Funny? nope. Why is the algorithm favoring crap?
L
Speak for yourself. Nobody died or, apparently, was seriously injured, so it’s funny. That’s just basic math.
C
Forst thought was, “how’d they get beer in the ER?”
N
is the last act the visit to ER?
J
It’s how it started 🤣 looks like a grocery store and booze.
H
What song is it
S
In the inflatable Weiner 😭
L
2 survivors…
U
This is exactly the kind of things my brothers and our friends would have done as kids, EXCEPT! There is no way we would have been smart enough to wear helmets. So I give these guys props for at least thinking a little about safety.
