I'm sure many of us don't know the documented history of the dangers of adults doing this and the tragedy that could result. The best thing we can do is educate our chapters and make them aware before it happens to someone else. My husband, who is a Phi Gam grad brother and used to serve on his chapter's advisory board, is incredibly sad about this incident. Interestingly, he commented that, while sledding a few winters ago, he ran and hopped stomach first onto a sled, the way we always did as kids. He felt a lot of force on his neck on impact with the snow, and could totally see that a similar action with a slip and slide-like set up could cause such a serious injury.
