Do you have the next episode? If so, what is the title of it?

[allgood2000]

@sailorballz3 I don't have it uploaded, but the title is "Bear Rescue". A mother bear on the loose in Albuquerque climbs a power pole and gets electrocuted. Her cub wanders into town a few days later, and it is captured and reunited with its mother at the animal hospital. Both bears are released back into the wild after the mother recovers.

4:06 is retarded, he looks stupid when he does that, i mean wtf is he doing, it looks like he is trying to dive into a pool

[allgood2000]

He had to jump up to grab the ladder because there was something on the pole blocking the bottom rungs.

Get a crowd of people to stand under where Angie is hanging from and then have the mom drop her and have the bystanders catch her.

Remember when the lady tossed 8 babies out the window in that segment and bystanders caught them...??

This was one child, maybe bystanders could have caught her if the mom dropped her..

[allgood2000]

That probably would have been difficult because she had skis on, which could have injured anyone who tried to catch her. Also, the woman who tossed the babies dropped them from the third floor (about 20 feet). The chair lift was probably twice that high.

Look at Shawn at 4:52 on that wire. He must have nerves of steel, and hands of steel.

I loved this show as a kid but this is one of the few clips from it I remember specifically. Probably because when I saw it (I was about 11 when it aired), it freaked the hell out of me and I'm reminded of it every time I see a ski lift anywhere.

Shawn you're a hero

@605222 Chair lift poles are padded so that if someone should ski into one, they won't be hurt as badly.

I thought they would be able to back up the chairlift...

[flem10]

Hahahaaha most stupid movie ever!!!!

[Apink420]

that girl has a wild head of hair

[jtomally9681]

@allgood2000 I wish you had that episode of the woman tossing those kids out the window.

[FanOBarbaro]

aren't there supposed to be bars that you can lower on the lift chair to prevent things like this?
