I was reading about that. When the lift stopped the brake wasn't activated. it started rolling backwards from gravity. and ever increasing speed. 11 people injured. I am surprised there was no broken necks or totally mangled.

Good thing this wasn’t sledding related. Them green fkers would be screaming we need to band this sport. So I’m guessing a big payout and live moves on?
happy to be flung off my seat at my own stupidity...it’s awesome that everyone survived.
