Snowflake pardon the pun

Hilarious. I hope it hurts.

Hope she looses. She knew the risks.

She should defo sue them, Look at the state of her face,

If only she knew how dangerous ski jumps are 😂

Body off Baywatch face off Crimewatch

Contract should have put a clause in saying there should be no claims against them. She would have Been paid plenty to take part.

Well if she wins maybe she could get her gob sorted out. She always looks like she could eat an apple thru a letterbox. horseface

This is a joke! Is she trying to say that she had no knowledge of the risks involved in the show? Or is she just another money grabber? She ought to be ashamed of herself!

Is it April fools day?

I’m sure she would have understood the risk before she went on. Who would she sue if she injured herself doing gymnastics 🤔🤔

Nasty little hobbit

She signed up to the show knowing that she could be injured at anytime as she's not an experienced Bobsleigh, Ski jumper or any other winter sport they had to do. The courts should just throw the case straight out the window.

Didn’t they have insurance for accidents?

She says she doing it for others though 🙂

Maybe it's just me but when does personal accountability come in...u aren't a skier....u're a gymnast.... Surely a small part of ur brain says this isn't too clever I'm not skilled enough to take this on without greater training I'll stop b4 I get hurt. Why go on?...oh yeah...

*volunteers do do obviously dangerous thing* 'Oh I've been hurt. Someone besides me is to blame.' Ladies and gentlemen may I present to you, the reason your car insurance renewal jumped up 10% in 18 months.

Her dentist must be nervous

So she went on the 4th series of a show reknowned for injuring the contestants. Simple as peas!! Its winter sports. The risk is part of the rush!!

She new what she was letting herself in for.

What a surprise money dried up? Would of thought the TV company will have some clause in the contract she agreed to..

Compo face pending

That she chose to go on for money. Knowing the risks. Feking joke. Hope they cancelled her payment 😡

Always thought they had to be desperate or stupid to go onto a show like that as generally inexperienced or novice skiers.

CompoFace

Surely they had them sign something beforehand, in order to cover things such as injuries! If not then why appear on a show where injury was a possibility
