Been there, done that. Watch out for old wooden slat chair lifts ! Just make sure as you are hanging upside down by your jacket, being sling shotted around, that you trip the safety switch bar.
And yes, it is embarrassing as you hang there upside down on a busy day with fifty people starting to laugh :oops:

It was on one of the old chairs in Les Carroz, with the slatted seats.
she was wearing a backpack with those thumb pulls that you tighten the straps with.
The plastic thumb pull got caught between the slats and as she went to ski off the chair it twisted and tightened.
The chair carried on round and dragged her with it.
Very scary, she was screaming and the operator stopped it just as it was about to take off down again.
Now comes the amusing bit...I tried to get to her as the operator stopped the lift. As he did so a bar came down and hit me right on top of the head. It was pandemonium for about 30 seconds. Then we ascertained she was ok, apart from a sore wrist. But she never wears that kind of backpack anymore. (in fact she doesn't wear one for skiing)

When I was a little girl skiing in Calgary,the "T-bar" hooked onto my skijacket and dragged me . I remember feeling so embarrassed at the time and scared I would be dragged to the top...I couldnt have been older than 9 or 10.
