Gwyneth Paltrow has taken the stand in a Park City courtroom to testify about the ski collision, which left Terry Sanderson with lasting physical injuries and for which he is suing the Oscar-winning Actor.

Gwyneth Paltrow Ski Video: Collision Accident Trial Update
Gwyneth Paltrow testified on Friday afternoon in a Park City courtroom about the 2016 ski collision in a mountain resort in Utah, for which she is being sued. Terry Sanderson sued the Oscar-winning Actor for $300,000.
He claimed her recklessness caused the crash, leaving him with lasting physical injuries. In her two-hour testimony, Paltrow alleged that Sanderson crashed slowly into her as she was skiing down the slope.

Similarly, it caused two skis to come between her skis, forcing her legs apart and pressing his body against hers. Paltrow initially feared the crash might have been perverted or a prank.
Sanderson and his attorneys have a different narrative, claiming that Paltrow skied out of control, crashing into him on a beginner run, knocking him down hard, knocking him out, causing a brain injury, four broken ribs, and other serious injuries.
Paltrow denied that she engaged in risky behavior while skiing down the slope. Likewise, she stated that she would not engage in such behavior even with her children present.
When an attorney for Sanderson tried to establish that Paltrow would ski in a more risky fashion if her children were with her, Paltrow denied ever doing that and said,
“I have always been very open and honest with my kids. And they know me very well.”
Paltrow also denied being an aggressive skier and confirmed that the slope was a green run filled with families. According to Paltrow, Sanderson had skied directly into her, with his skis in between hers, causing her to fall a second or two later.
Paltrow’s behavior after the collision was the subject of multiple questions from both Sanderson’s attorney, who asked why the Actor would yell at him if she wanted to maintain a low profile on the slopes, and her lawyer.

Paltrow testified that she felt violated, upset, and worried about her knee. She also testified that she did not inquire about any of the injuries sustained by Sanderson as a result of the accident.
Likewise, her psychology was not necessarily thinking about the person who perpetrated it. Attorneys for both have been jostling to convince the 10-member jury which skier was positioned downhill and therefore had the right of way.
Paltrow has countersued Sanderson. Sanderson’s daughter testified on Friday just before Paltrow went on the witness stand.
The brother of Sanderson’s son-in-law, Mark Stephen Herath, was first on the stand on Friday, talking about the lingering effects of the skiing incident on Sanderson at the resort in Park City, Utah, where the Sundance film festival also takes place.
He told the jury that Sanderson’s comprehension had gone down, he would get confused, and it was like day and night before and after the accident. The trial that the judge and attorneys for both parties have agreed will last eight days.
It will be interesting to see how the case proceeds and how the jury will rule on this skiing incident that has become a legal battle between Paltrow and Sanderson.
