Maine: 7 Injured, Sugarloaf Chairlift Malfunction


Recommended Posts

From the article:

"So all the chairs they were slipping backward. And as gravity works they started to go faster and faster and people were jumping off at the lower levels," he said.

The injured were treated by ski patrol and taken off the mountain for treatment by emergency medical responders, resort spokesman Ethan Austin said."

Now unless I am misreading that, it's the people who jumped off when they thought they were low enough to do so who were hurt. I wonder if they would have been injured if they stayed put?
