[quote=Anonymous]This happened years ago and I can’t trust any of their recollections.. Just judging from the injuries, it’s more likely that she hit him. If you are hit from behind, and are lucky that neither of you are going too fast, their velocity goes from 10-20 mph(or higher) to zero when they hit you, while your velocity goes from 10-20 mph to 30-40 mph until you hit the ground or a tree or another skier. They stop and you get accelerated. If you have ever been hit from behind, you know exactly what this feels like. It’s like you are running down a hill and someone plows right into your back.

People who believe that it’s more likely that she got hit from behind and skied away unscathed while he was knocked unconscious with broken bones have a weak grasp of physics.

They are both biased in their recollections, as are their witnesses, and people are notoriously unreliable about their memories. If you watch the testimonies and “have a feeling” that one or the other are telling the truth, how can you argue that with a straight face? I think the whole thing should be dismissed unless they can definitively say that the rib fractures occurred from striking someone in front or being struck from behind. Without proof like that, it seems more likely that he was the one struck, but no one can say for sure. [/quote]
