A malfunctioning ski lift in a resort in Georgia actually flung people out of their carriers while others were forced to jump off. After watching the video above, we suspect they won’t be going skiing again anytime soon.
As the video shows, the ski lift began to spin out of control and take off in the opposite direction. A number of people can be heard screaming as onlookers gathered.
While some people managed to jump off the lift themselves, others were thrown into the air by the sheer speed of the rotation. CNN reported that at least eight people were injured in this freak accident.
