ACCORDING TO THE description of this clip, this teenager suffered a skull fracture, lacerated liver and a collapsed lung.

The Santa Fe New Mexican, however, reports that no surgery was needed to the 17-year-old, but was kept under observation for three days after falling from the lift.

So, we’re glad he’s okay. But let that be a lesson to ye pups throwing snowballs.

“It was kind of a dramatic deal.” said the area’s ski patrol director, Cody Sheppard.

“I guess he was attempting to throw a snowball to the chair in front of him, where some friends were, and when he threw the snowball, the momentum just carried him out of the chair.

“He did hang on for awhile, but then he had to drop.”

Yes, Cody. Yes he did.
