Mt Tremblant Gondola Accident

[Cork]

Not a lot of answers on this yet, it will be interesting as to how a "heavy piece of construction equipment" hits a gondola car midway up, and how the 2 victims were ejected out.

How do you get thrown out of a gondola car? Sounds brutal.

ETA: If the side of the cabin is gone, I get it.

Crane or excavator boom?

Had to be, right?

The construction equipment in question was a drilling rig. It impacted two cabins, one empty and one occupied. The machine was being moved into place for work that would happen on Monday.
