A video shared by French newspaper Le Dauphine libéré captured the moment a loose keg barelled down the slopes of Val d’Isère, apparently hitting a skier below before coming to a stop.
According to the news site, the barrel, weighing around 66 pounds, was being transported by a quad bike that was bringing merchandise from a mountain restaurant to the chairlift when it fell back on February 27th. The keg then proceeded to fall down the Face de Bellevarde, a legendary run at Val d’Isère.
The keg then proceeded to hit an individual, breaking their arm and causing a suspected wrist injury. She was attended to by ski patrol before being transported to the hospital in Bourg-Saint-Maurice. A complaint has reportedly been filed by the women in relation to the incident.
