    Meathead Films - Skier Killed

    As some of you might have already heard or this has been discussed previously Alec Stall of Meathead Films was killed a few weeks ago on Mt. Mansfield (highest peak in Vermont) while shooting for Meathead Films. I have posted a couple of links for anyone to check out. The first one is a piece that CNN's Risky Business did on Alec Stall and it shows some good footage of Alec and The Meathead crew, but most importantly it tells a little about Alec, who seemed to represent what our sport is truly about, the love and passion for skiing.

    The second link is a writen dedication to Alec, definately worth a read:

    I hope Meathead Films continues on representing the finest hardcore eastern skiing, showcasing how beautiful and raw eastern BC skiing is all about.

    You're welcome AfroMullet. I hope people go out and support Meathead Films, it's refreshing to see new film upstarts do things the other well established films companies overlook.
