There was this incident where a snowboarder's binding broke right at the start of a black diamond run. They were so excited to go down but then had to stop immediately. Trying to walk back up with a broken binding was not only difficult but also dangerous as they could easily slip. It was a real bummer and a scary situation to be in. And another time, a rider's binding straps got stuck in some branches while they were in the woods on the slope. They had to struggle a lot to get free and it was quite a frightening experience.
One horror story is when the binding suddenly snapped while going at high speed. The rider lost control and crashed badly, resulting in a broken leg. Another is when the binding came loose during a jump and the person ended up face - first in the snow. It was really scary and could have been much worse.
My friend has a red snowboard. One day, he was showing off his new tricks. He attempted a 360 - degree spin but miscalculated and ended up crashing into a group of skiers (luckily no one was hurt). His red snowboard went flying and landed on top of a nearby cabin. We still laugh about it today.
Sure. There was a girl who got an inner lip tattoo. She didn't realize how much it would affect her speech. For the first few days, she had a lisp because of the swelling and the presence of the tattoo. It was really embarrassing for her at work and in social situations.
Regular maintenance is important. Check your bindings for any signs of wear and tear before each use. If you notice any fraying or loose parts, get them fixed or replaced right away. Also, don't use bindings that are too old or have been through a lot of rough use.
A horror story might involve a situation where McDonald's made a major mistake with their menu. Say they accidentally used the wrong ingredients in a popular item, and it caused an allergic reaction in many customers. This could damage their reputation severely and cause a lot of distress to those affected. Another aspect could be if they had a data breach and customers' personal information was leaked, which would also be a nightmare for the customers and the company alike.
I heard of a case where a sugar glider got into the kitchen and knocked over a box of rat poison. The owner didn't know until they found the glider looking really ill. They rushed it to the vet but unfortunately, it was too late. It was a very scary situation as the owner didn't even think the glider could reach such a dangerous thing.
There was this time I was in an old hotel. I was staying in a room on the top floor. In the middle of the night, I heard faint footsteps in the hallway. Then, the doorknob started to rattle as if someone was trying to get in. I called the front desk but no one answered. I pushed a chair against the door and sat there trembling until morning.
One horror story is when the bindings suddenly came loose while going down a steep slope. It was terrifying as the board started to slide away from under my feet. I lost control and ended up crashing into a snowbank.
I once visited an old, abandoned house. As I walked through the dimly lit hallways, I felt a sudden cold breeze. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a shadowy figure that seemed to glide across the room. I ran out of there as fast as I could.
I once met a person on a dating app who seemed really nice at first. We planned to meet at a coffee shop. But when I got there, the person looked completely different from the pictures. And they were extremely pushy about going to a more private place right away. I quickly made an excuse and left.
