"A 46-year-old man has died of asphyxiation after an accident involving his coat and a chairlift at a ski resort in Vail, Colo., officials say.
The incident happened on a chairlift in the Blue Sky Basin area of Vail Mountain on Feb. 13, Vail Mountain said in a statement to CNN.
Jason Varnish, of New Jersey, boarded the chairlift and slipped through the seat while his coat became caught in the chair, Eagle County Coroner Kara Bettis told the Vail Daily newspaper.
“The coat ended up going around his head and neck area, putting his neck in a position that compromised his airway,” Bettis said. She says the official cause of death was positional asphyxia."
