  • A cable car plummeted to the ground and tumbled down a slope at a mountain resort in Italy’s Piedmont region. At least 14 people were killed. Rescuers struggled to reach the remote mountainside where the gondola fell. The only survivor is a child who is in a serious condition. » Subscribe to NBC News: nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

      @Karson C yeah families are payed off but does anyone really get blamed in the end? I mean you have to put your head into the scene of the accident to understand my position, 14 dead people in a cart is basically a murder scene. If 14 people get murdered they'd go to court for years and waste tons of money over one case. Idk I'm kinda high the world feels messed up right now

    car ride on the ground pulled by the cable that is higher , wheels on the car , fell trees to make a dirt track . mechanism to stop the car from rolling down if cable fails, not one big car but many one person cars or for families up to five ppl cars , some would not want to be in a car but just walking up with walking speed cable pull assistance holding a handlebar for that maybe pulling near straigth up , would be an easy walk. or could use bike , did it on a ski lift. . other wire maybe moving that holds a line for safety if big car in air and roof of it opens easy in middle if needed when it falls pps heads push roof open and ppl dangle on the safety line.. about rust. wonder if cable greased internally on assembly will it dry out over time, need solvent then thin floating grease to impregnate it that becomes more solid soon by drying, or is it enough to grease it well on outside how often , automaticy by every trip a little , weekly montly yearly would be too seldom mabe . cover w plastic to stp rain w not in use.for months. .deterioration occurred through two principal mechanisms, namely, external and internal fatigue, which is caused by bending over sheaves or drum windings and crushing, which is caused by multilayer drum spooling..finally a good idea, airbags , but not under the car but inside the car under the people, airbags maybe too complex but just a thick floor made from soft but stiff enough bouncy material and the car would have to be higher or rather lower to accomedate for it . so car would hit hard but ppl wuld not feel that hardness of fall cos then right after ppl would hit floor that has a semi hard plate but moves down when hit, and all should have a helmet. sides roof could be soft build too if hit too. but cable holder on top of car is maybe heavy , might it turn car on way down . so try to design car to be falling straight down without turning , maybe some plates on top part to grab air act as stabeliser fins or tiny parachutes . maybe weigts under floor but thats not so good more tenison and costs of transport or .jæi

    Matt Bradley needs to read a script as if he were telling a story to just one other person rather than reading it as if he were hosting a game show. The story is dramatic enough. He doesn't need to hype it a breathy read.

    • @lindaliriel
      @lindaliriel 3 года назад

      We know for sure it wasn't an excess in weight as the car was at less than half capacity (covid restrictions). It seems, according to what I found on Italian news, that the likeliest cause was a malfunction of the secutiry system. One cable, the "pulling" one, snapped at the point of greatest traction. It is not clear if he snap was the cause of the issue itself, or if it snapped because of a malfunction elsewhere (possibly at the connection with the pylon) this is under investigation
      There are "jaws" in place for that possibility, which clamp on so that the car doesn't move, but in this case it didn't work and the car slid down, crashed against one of the pylons, fell and rolled down part of the mountain (some of the people inside were thrown out in the process). The same jaws that didn't work for them DID work for the car behind them: had they failed, the other car would have had a similar fate. The people in the second car had to slide down cables with the help of the rescuers and are all ok.
