One man didn’t learn this lesson in Ski School (which may or may not be a thing). Instead of avoiding the trees he strapped a GoPro to his head and weaved directly through them -- which doesn’t seem like sound thinking.
He might not be going extremely fast through the forest, but THAT’S where we’d expected the uncontrollable screaming, not when everything opens up. Nevertheless, nope... no thanks.
