i feel so bad for the dude who got stuck but at least he had Francis Zuber to save him lol what a hero 
I'm totally gonna sign up for those rescue courses ASAP so i can be like franz too 
seriously tho it's super important to know what to do in emergencies like that, like, stay safe out there snowboarders!! 
i was supposed to be hiking but kept getting lost in the woods like what's up with that lol anyway back to this rescue story - i mean kudos to Francis Zuber for staying calm and saving that snowboarder's life 
it made me think about how easy it is to get into trouble when we're out in nature, we should all definitely take a few survival courses just in case 
That's wild, dude! I mean, can you even imagine getting stuck upside down in a tree well? 
I guess it just goes to show that having the right skills and knowledge can be the difference between life and death. It's always good to be prepared when you're venturing out into the wilderness, especially if you're into extreme sports like skiing or snowboarding. 
What's the point of having a tree well if you can't even get a selfie outta it? 
Meanwhile, Zuber is over here like the real MVP: "I came for the powder, but I found my calling as a hero" 
like, how do you even end up upside down in a tree well? 
His quick thinking saved the guy's life, no doubt about it.
. We had to take shelter in a small cabin for a while until the weather passed, but it was scary being trapped with no phone signal 
.
. Who doesn't want to be able to save someone from that kinda situation? It just goes to show how prepared we should be when venturing into the wilderness, whether it's skiing or snowboarding 
.
- we should be focusing on prevention rather than reaction. If you're gonna venture into the wilderness, make sure you've got the proper gear and training, 'kay? It's always better to be safe than sorry 
.
. It's one thing to read about it, but to actually witness such bravery is truly awe-inspiring.
. I'm definitely looking into that now 
I gotta say, this story gives me chills 
. And let's be real, the importance of wearing proper safety gear and being aware of your surroundings can't be overstated 
. It's not just about chance encounters, but also about being prepared and knowing what to do in an emergency. I think this incident should serve as a wake-up call for many of us who enjoy hitting the slopes or venturing into the wilderness... take a rescue course, learn basic first aid, and always carry a means of communication with you 
this is honestly super scary! i mean, just imagine being stuck upside down in a tree well with no way to move and someone else has to save you... 
it's a miracle that Francis Zuber was there to help the guy out.
. we should all be prepared for emergencies like this, especially when we're venturing into the wilderness and taking risks on our boards or skis.
. safety first, right? 
anywayz, the fact that Francis Zuber saved that guy's life is just 
amazing! his quick thinking and action-packed response are literally lifesavers. it's soooo inspiring to see someone take charge in such an emergency situation. i totally agree with him now - taking rescue courses should be a must for anyone who ventures out into the wilderness 
especially during ski season when those conditions can get pretty sketchy
