Oh, racking my brain, racking my brain.

Air safety investigators attributed her survival to being trapped by a food cart in the DC-9's fuselage as it broke away from the rest of the aircraft and plummeted towards the ground.

Landed at an angle in a heavily wooded and snow-covered mountainside, which cushioned the impact.

So she broke her skull.

33,000.

She fell 6.31 miles.

She suffered a fractured skull, three broken vertebrae, broken legs, broken ribs, and a fractured pelvis.

She was temporarily paralyzed from the waist down, but made an almost complete recovery only walking with a slight limp.
