Not only climbing that wire, but catching the knife in mid air! with a broken hand! He is incredible! He said anybody could have done it, but no way! "Praise the Slacklife"... so humble, this hero!
I saw this as it happened. I wanted to walk away because I didn't want to see someone die. and then this crazy dude jumped up on the lift line and cut him down.
AWEsome job dude! Way to think outside the box and use your skills to save a life. You deserve so much gratitude, I just had to write and say, I'm grateful for people like YOU!
This guy is awesome beyond words. Apart from what he did saving a person's life, the energy he emanates and the storytelling skills. I wish him all the best.
As someone who used be a lift operator, the operator should have hit the emergency stop the second the unboarding didn't go smoothly. Why is the operator letting the guy get so far past the drop-off before stopping the lift?
What a dear. Can someone tell me what slack lining is? Thank goodness the other young man is ok. As a bereaved mom I can tell you this guy is a super hero.
He did a good act to let u catch up with old friends. Then in the midst of life or death, gets saved by you. Which if it was me, would have bonded our friendship instantly. 2 incredibly good deeds and everything worked out.
Just bought my first slackline after hearing this story and wondering what the heck slacklining was. He was right about having a weird feeling that this would help spread the sport xD
a bae! when i heard about it i thought for sure it would be on pali or norway cuz there those old 2 seaters never thought it woldve been lenaway .what a hero
Mickey Wilson, the myth the man the legend, Utmost respect & high praise & mad respect on all levels...Agreed, "Thank god u are a slack liner"😅 *Im thinking a film about the "life of a professional slackliner" needs to be made. I'd cast you as the lead no question. Your sport is insane & thrilling & would love to know more about it, very intriguing to say the least & just seeing the pictures from your Ellen interview?!? Wow.😅 Much love to you & your friend, What an amazing situation you were placed in, I can't even imagine... THIS guy? Is the definition of a role model. A real life role model 🙌😇 #praisetheslacklife #theellenshow #mickeywilson #moviescriptidea #professionalslackliner
thank for the crazy daredevil people that like skiing. I loved my time living in summit county. "Had to work two slides there. Thanks for b\humanity!! GO a basin
Wow. I guess this stoner was absent (shocker) the day his teacher explained HUMILITY. This is amazing. I've never ever heard anyone give themselves so much credit about anything in ever. Wait. N. Koreas "dear leaders"!
What a likeable, humble man. A-Basin better give him a lifetime ski pass.
i agree. saves them a thousand trips to the attorneys office. he spoke very well. i like this guy! reward him please! thanks.
OMG, what a great guy. So humble. He should be totally proud of himself.
They should hire him, and put him in ski patrol. Or at the very least, give him free skiing for the rest of life. Good job!
nah dude, sounds like he lives for the slack
He is an employee. ...

What are the odds of having a professional slack liner on a ski trip the day you end up upside town unconscious on a ski lift
What a great public relations man for Arapahoe Basin. You are really a hero. I'm interested what he is doing nowadays (it is 2021).
Everyone should know how to slack line. We used to practice on one when I was on the Univ. of Colorado ski team.A-Basin ROCKS!
How wonderful! Very cool dude
Way, way too damn cool 😎.... And this dudes attitude is off the chain.
God Bless this dude🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚🍀💚
I love this kid!
Real sweet guy
Who else went on a slack line deep dive after watching this lovely man? No one? Just me? Ok then...
Nope me too. Never heard of it before.
Awesome thanks young man
I think I'll start skiing A Basin a bit more. : ) Well done, Mickey, A Basin Ski Patrol and all!
God bless you

Yes. Glory To God. A Sovereign God put this slackliner there and timed the patrol there.
So rad.

With a broken hand!! Lets start a million dollar go fund me for him!! 🥳😘🥰💞💯
This dude isn't about money, you can tell. Thus dude us about living life to the fullest and great snow on an awesome mountain.
So honestly
You happened bro, if you hesitated at all
Never heard of slack lining
Never knew what slack lining was prior to this
❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
Mickey: "It was totally random."
No it was totally God. He used Mickey to rescue him. Nothing is a coincidence where God is involved.
I agree.
Yes! It was God intervening.
How did the slack line skills help him in this case? Didn’t he just crawl on the line to the chair or did he walk it like a tight rope
Sorry, what is slack lining?
🤘🏼
