Have you seen the cost of a good new one?

Aye, an arm and a leg...

I class setting off an avalanche in New Zealand as one of my three near death experiences.. It is indelibly marked in my brain.  I stepped into the top of a snow filled gulley only to see the whole lot slide off down the mountain..

Getting out of the sky??? Gravity would sort that

No I really couldn't.. The updaft meant I could not get down.  It was really turbulent air. Staying in the lift was relatively safe but I had to leave the lift band to land and landing in turbulent air was scary.. plus I was on a hill in west Wales on my own and know one new where I was. Pretty foolish really.
