I am sure we have seen people do stupid things like: People who touch a burner on a stove to determine if it is HOT ......

My most famous. Move up in the lift line because the people in front of you moved up. Unfortunately, they'd moved up to get ON THE LIFT.

Mass hysteria ensued as the girls went to sit down on the lift chair that I was quite suprised my arse was now on. They all made sure to steer clear of me the rest of the day. I felt horrid, but my friends never let me hear the end of it.

I have see a lift operator come down from the top for a break and forget to get off at the bottom.

At Loon, observed: talking on a cell phone, held in hand, while skiing top to bottom. Musta been a helluva good (or bad) conversation. Maybe it was his boss.... Great way to ruin a ski day.

Forgot to close the bar on the ski rack atop the car after a hard day's skiing.
Realizing it only when I get up to speed on I-93 and catch a glimpse of my bud's ski's launching into outerspace. Landing, they were perfectly hurdled between the tires of an 18-wheeler at 65mph. Got them back safe and sound, but I was so embarassed and feeling so guilty I bought him a new ski bag.

Saw something similar at Cannon, some guy, sliding slowly in the middle of Big Link and talking on his cell phone.

Don't worry about anyone else on the trail, we'll just go around you!

Dope.

I have you beat, by far. (Stupid people help keep my job secure.)

The homeowner who tried to kill the ants under his shed with a blow torch He did suceed in killing the ants.

Many others. (Way too many "my cell phone is more important than my driving" to even comprehend.)
