Fucking ouch ... @ the 'unofficial hill @ Centennial Park Arena' Quote: After going airborne twice and landing hard both times — “it hurt so much I could feel it in my throat” — Gentile said that the pair were thrown from their sled at the bottom of the hill. After being taken to Etobicoke General Hospital by paramedics, he was diagnosed with a torn rotator cuff, a fractured tail bone, and a compression fracture of the T12 vertebrae, and had to lay on a stretcher for 16 hours without moving. Quote: “The issue is, there’s no clear signage. It wasn’t evident to us that this (toboggan hill) might not be safe,” he said. After hearing Gentile’s story, Councillor Stephen Holyday (Ward 2 Etobicoke Centre) said that he quickly sent out inquiries to city parks staff to determine what measures were already in place at Centennial Park. He confirmed that there are, in fact, several signs pertaining to tobogganing posted throughout the park. According to Holyday, there are two warning signs — including one that reads “Danger: Steep Hill. No sledding, tobogganing or tubing permitted” — at the base of the hill, a couple of others posted at the top of the hill, as well as five signs in the park’s main parking lot, with maps indicating the location of the official toboggan hill. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2019/03...for-a-week.html |

This shit pisses me off, literally. Really, you 40 year old dumb fuck? Assuming this guy has friends, how are they not pummeling him? If this guy was in my circle of friends, he'd get it. What makes it worse is that if the signs did not exist, he'd probably have a good chance at winning. Fuck this guy. |

I left out the part where he was sledding with his 8-yr daughter on the 'legit' hill, before taking on this hill, with his daughter on his lap ... Fortunately his daughter is ok; if she wasn't, child endangerment charges anyone? |

that reminds me of these two guys in high school. when they were in grade school, they jumped the fence that had a no trespassing sign on it into a golf course and went tobogganing. both of them ended up smashing into a tree and both of them broke both of their legs. one of the guys, asian, got in shit from his parents and that was that. the other one, white guy who's dad is a lawyer sued the golf course for whatever it was, and won a dirty settlement. let's just say that they have an indoor pool that we had parties at all the time lol |
