Skier Crash Lands Front Flip Directly into Tree

Watch out for that tree!
by

While skiing in Kiroro, Japan, this skier had an abrupt end to his run after front flipping directly into a small tree.  The guy spots the sapling just at the last minute to be able to brace himself for impact, but still ended up in the hospital with minor injuries.
