Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Rt.com: “‘Stomach-turning’: Norwegian ski star airlifted to hospital after horrific crash leaves her screaming in agony (VIDEO)”. Below is an excerpt from the article.
The 22-year-old lost control as she descended the Italian slopes Sunday after hitting an edge at high speed which caused her to plummet backwards and collide with the safety net.
Replays of the incident appeared to show Vickhoff Lie's left leg twist at an awkward angle and when she finally came to rest, her anguished cries of pain could be clearly heard on the television broadcast.
Reports from the scene have since suggested that she suffered a broken leg in the crash as well as injuries to at least one of her knees.
Sending our thoughts to @Skiforbundet’s Kajsa Vickhoff Lie after her horrible crash at the @[email protected] World Cup super-G today. ????????
Parent of a budding ski racer, I’ve watched 100s of races and plenty of crashes too. But Kajsa Vickhoff Lie in the Women’s Super G crash just now, has turned my stomach. I don’t think I’ll be able to watch Allegra at this l level. I hope she recovers soon https://t.co/WJSCHwwkCz

Thinking this evening of Kajsa Vickhoff Lie and Rosina Schneeberger who crashed heavily and painfully in today's SuperG at Val di Fassa in Italy, and had to be helicoptered off the slope. Best wishes to both.
