You know those movies where firefighters save people from burning buildings by having them jump onto a giant tarp that they hold.

Well those actually exist and people actually use them to rescue people!

This is how they save people who are stuck high up on a ski lift!!

I always thought there would be a more modern approach to this. Like a ladder or something.

But you know what, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it!
