Only 8 minor injuries? Hope that is correct. One person looked like they got caught in that heap of chairs at the bottom.

Is Georgia breaking every bone in your body must be a minor injury.

Agree, that one person who didn't jump off the lift looked to go around the bullwheel and into that building pile of chairs that were ripped off the haul rope!!!
Matter of time before something like this happens in this country. Lift maintenance and knowledge are so far behind at most resorts. Thanks Trump
And nobody screaming get the f away from here as fast as possible!I'm surprised how many people in the, "catching a 200 pound guy in the head at 35mph zone" initially stood around watching from 20 feet away.
Another tidbit to take from this. If one is ever on a lift and a catastrophic failure of the anti rollback mechanism occurs, get your safety bar UP as you're heading back towards the terminal!! It appears that most of the people who looked to experience the most violent "ejections" from the chair as it went around the bullwheel, had their bars down, which probably both prevented them from jumping off earlier and also likely made their ejection from the chair more violent as their bodies and skies/boards likely encountered the safety bar in the process...
