So my friend in gym today someone dropped a weight on his hand on accident so he went to the hosptial and they said it was broken.Now he is one of my really good ski friends and he was going to a pov edit of me the ones where the people go on the jump behind ya and now he says becasue of his broken hand he cant ski he broke his left hand. Hes right handed so he can still work the camera fine and idk kinda pissed becasue we have been planning this edit for like a month now. So do you guys have any good persusentaion tips so he can be filming tommorow? Also do you think that a broken hand should really stop a park season when you can easily go no Poles?

haha youre not even trying
but yeah idk just ask him nicely, tell him you'd really appreciate it and you won't make him do anything dangerous or sketchy. if he's dead set against it just let it go, safety is #1!

Yeah, im in a similar situation. My really good friend who I care about very much has a terrible heart problem. See the problem is he was supposed to feed my dog today while I go over to my girlfriends. He told me he cant do it, you dont even understand how angry I am. Does he not realize that my dog wont eat if he doesnt feed it?
sheesh its a freakin ski video, if you got hurt skiing and couldnt ski why would you go skiing and film what you want to be doing.

my thoughts exactly.
he just broke his hand and you expect him to automatically be your fucking film bitch. If i were him id say "Alright ill go skiing tomorrow, and just not film your whiny ass at all."

Your friends number one priority is most likely not going to be videoing for you. I mean he just busted his hand, give him a break. I don't know how much work really goes into "getting a bunch of tripods" either. Seems like your more concerned about what you want... not what he needs. Don't be so self centered you fuck.

Hahaha This. Maybe I'm understanding this wrong but, you sound IGNANT. Your pissed because your friend got injured? I'm sure he's not to thrill about it. I've broken my hand and still played soccer then next day before a cast. But it could be hurting him a lot, don't be an asshole.

Don't know why all these people are shitting their pants about you wanting your friend to film you... I broke my thumb last year and skid half the season with it.
But it is kind of different I guess since he just broke it yesterday...

tell him to not push himself at all
if he's not comfortable with something, don't do it
not that complicated
who cares if he doesn't get bangers for 1 edit
