It would make picking a ski resort easier. Sort: descending.

I don't believe the guy in the above image died, but someone died on the same chair (Big Sky Basin at Vail) in the same manner a few years later. The lawsuit was settled out of court I believe, but that was one of the negligent issues listed as a cause of dealth. That is, the seat pad had gone back up from the wind on the way back down to the bottom terminal and the lifty and skier failed to catch it. Skier sat down, fell through the seat and ended up suffocating before they could free them.
Obviously, the skier in the above issue doesn't have an obstructed airway. just a chaffed ass.
I think both incidents cost Vail millions in settlements and now they have cam straps to keep the seats down.

Resort guests tried unsuccessfully to form a human pyramid to push up Varnish’s legs and feet, the report said, noting the operator initially said he could not reverse the lift without permission.

Next time look it up yourself please.
What about the settlements? Do you have a specific question?

That's a newspaper report. There is one sentence about what the coroner said--cause of death. Nothing in the newspaper article in which the coroner mentions the mechanism of death or the circumstances leading up to the death. You cannot base your opinion about what is or is not known about anything on a brief news article. That is how a lot of misinformation gets started. I showed you a more contemporary article about the event, which you ignored, but of course that article can't be considered complete either. If you actually care about knowing what happened do your own research. If you're just being a troll, go away. We already have enough trolls. If that sounds hostile it's because it is. I'm tired of dealing with people who lack even basic critical thinking skills.
