WATCH: This Lift Line Was So Long, the Skiers Started Climbing

50 Campfires

For some skiers and snowboarders in Hokkaido, Japan, the line for the ski lift was just too long, so they started climbing the snowy mountain instead. The strange scene had some folks laughing as they recorded a video of the long line . . . and the deserters.
