Skiing is a much more dangerous sport than it's given credit for.

Along with the obvious threats like falling off a f***ing mountain, you apparently also have to dodge falling pieces of technology. Austrian skier Marcel Hirscher narrowly avoided a serious injury when a drone fell out of the sky and landed just a few feet away from him. Of course he would have seen this coming if he remembered the number one rule of his sport - keep watching the skis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEMoQknB6WE
