Multiple gondola cars at a ski resort in Bulgaria slammed into powerlines, and a vehicle’s dash camera recorded the entire incident.

Watch closely on the left side of your screen as two gondola cars moving from right to left snag the power lines. The second one actually gets stuck for a few moments as the lift continues to run.

Check out the video:

“Occurred on December 23, 2022 / Sofia, Bulgaria Vitosha lift cabin in Simeonovo almost fell.”

Thank goodness nobody was on the gondola when the incident occurred. Anybody riding in those cabins could have been seriously injured or killed.

On a personal note- I’ve watched this video a half a dozen times and I’m still confused how the lift continues to move while the car is stuck on the line.

Can somebody with a deeper knowledge of lifts let me know?
