‘It’s snow joke’: Boston mayor warns against window jumping

For the last three weeks Boston residents have used snow banks to show off their courage by filming jump videos and posting them online under the hashtag #BostonBlizzardChallenge.
Mayor Martin Walsh reminded that such activities can very dangerous. At a press conference updating on snow removal efforts, he said, “It's a foolish thing to do and you could kill yourself.”
Walsh called for more responsibility, pointing out that local
authorities are already busy enough with the snowfall to find
time to spend on emergency calls from adults still thinking that
jumping out of a window into the snow is a really funny thing to
do.

For those who can’t stop jumping, the mayor reminded that Boston
is not the ski resort ‘Loon Mountain’. The resort immediately
reacted by tweeting a video with snowboarders calling for
Bostonians to be more responsible.
We echo @marty_walsh plea for
people to act responsibly - so we decided to take action.

Boston has almost sunk under 96 inches (244cm) of snow after a
series of brutal winter storms that hit the East Coast.
Walsh admitted that with so much snow the city is running out of space to put it.
This February became the snowiest-ever month in the city with downfalls volumes of 10 times above average.
And there is still no good news, with the National Weather Service predicting Boston might see yet another snowfall this weekend.
