Source Fluorinated or 'fluoro' ski waxes are a significant source of airborne PFAS exposure during the waxing process. PFAS are polyfluoroalkyl substances, commonly knowns as 'forever chemicals' because of their ability to persist in the body for years. They are getting more attention as we...

Hoping someone can help me find a certain popular edit based off my memory. It features one guy in a park with longer/continuous shots showing his skiing talent between features as well as on them.
