I assumed it's the combination of big sky and dash cam prevalence.

There were 44 people in that cable car when it fell 660 feet down a mountainside, then skidded another 330 feet before finally coming to a stop. Sometime during that fall, a 6,000 pound carriage assembly fell on top of the car, crushing it.

Of those 44 people, the only survivor was a 14 year old girl from Milan.
