Heavy leisure accidents: 17-year-olds and paragliding pilot injured!
On December 26, 2024, Stefanitag, there were two serious leisure accidents in Styria, which resulted in several injuries. In the Ski area Stuhleck, in the municipality of Spital am Semmering, a 17-year-old girl collided with a 47-year-old Hungary on slopes 1. At around 9.45 a.m., the incident happened for unexplained reasons, and the 17-year-old suffered so serious injuries that she had to be flown to the LKH Wiener Neustadt with the helicopter. The Hungarian apparently suffered several broken breaks in the collision and went on a medical treatment independently, reported krone.at .

A few hours after the skiing accident, another incident was reported: A 34-year-old paragliding pilot from Salzburg had difficulties with the wind conditions at the Geierkogel at the Geierkogel and fell to the ground from a low height. Fortunately, he was able to call his wife and inform her about what the rescue workers alerted. After the primary care, he was brought to the LKH Graz with injuries of an indefinite degree, as 5min.at . In both cases it shows how dangerous the leisure activities can be in the winter mountains.| Details | |
