Right, you hold his parents responsible. Isn't that what the guy is doing?

If a kid accidentally caused $75,000 worth of damage to you and your property you'd be content with an apology?

would seem to me the other question.. is they were all Skiing correct ? isn't there a certain amount of risk accepted there ?

You go skiing on a busy slope, you may crash into someone, or you may crash into a tree. and apparently they ran into each other. Maybe the old guy was standing around in the way ? just sayin'
