He suffered a fracture and was taken to hospital.
According to Police Superintendent Ann Karin Sundgården, even if he falls 6-10 meters from the chair, the injuries should not be bad.
– He was admitted to the hospital in Lillyhammer and he says he has a fracture in the pelvis.
Was on a school trip
He says he was on a school trip with other students, but was alone in the elevator when he fell down.
The accident happened approx. Sunday at 1400. Police have not yet received any information about the cause of the crash. The chair has a safety bar.
There was also an accident in 2011. When a construction crane tore a gondola.
The snow was less than usual

Alpinko’s general manager, Odd Stensrud, says the crash happened in a minivan starting at a central station in Hafjell.
– Was there less snow than usual at the drop-off point, otherwise based on the ice conditions on the ground?
– Yes, I can confirm that it was snowing less than usual where he fell.
Stainsroot says this is an unavoidable accident because all the chair lifts at the ski resort have safety belts.
The fall did not occur immediately after the climb, but approximately after. One-third of this chair.
