It's a very unfortunate accident.
Most of the victims are children from a german ski club.
An electro engineer from Baden-Württemberg suggests, that electromagnetic
induction, from the lift cables, may have caused the magnetic lockers,
seuring the cargo, to unlock.
The same lift was hit by a derailing accident in november 2004, caused by
strong winds.
It's in the same spot, the snowboard and skiing worldcup opening will take
place in week 41 and 42.

I'm not sure I can believe the reports how accurate/unlucky can you be to
hit a gondola cable when dropping a 1,650lb lump of concrete from a
helicopter?
