Parachuting skier grinds off the cables of a ski lift

Sitting down? Feet comfortably on the ground? Good. Then click on the video above and prepare for TERROR. Or, at least, nerve-wracking shrieks of metal.

That's some unnamed loon parachuting down the side of a mountain, punctuating his descent with grinds on the cables of a chair lift. Oh, and as if that wasn't insane enough, he hops the tower rollers and then glides right back onto the wire.

We'd tell you not to try this at home, but chances are you don't live above a chairlift cable. And, really, do you need to be told not to try this? Come on.
