8-year-old plunges nearly 25 feet from Maine ski lift


A mother is now speaking out after her 8-year-old daughter plunged around 25 feet from a ski lift in Maine, describing the ordeal as a "horror beyond horror." "It’s a horror beyond horror as a parent to have to go through this kind of thing," her mother, Sharisse, told "Good Morning America." "The lift attendants stopped the lift, contacted Sugarloaf Ski Patrol, and deployed a ‘catch net’ below the skier, which they used to break her fall when she dropped from the chair," the resort said in a statement. "The safety of our guests is our first priority in everything we do, and I’m incredibly thankful to our lift attendants and ski patrollers, without whose quick actions this incident could have been much worse." Shiloh told ‘Good Morning America’ that she felt like the ski lift "was going way too fast."
