Dense Caption

Left side shows pixelated figure in dark jacket and light pants performing aerial trick on blue snowboard against light blue sky with white clouds. Right side features solid blue background with black pixelated text: "I snowboarded in NH and almost died". Text is arranged vertically, each word or phrase on separate line. Snowboarder's pose shows bent knees and outstretched arms. Pixelation creates blocky appearance typical of low-resolution digital art from late 2000s.
