transcription:
Back then, a bit further out from the village, there was even a ski slope. There was already a cable car on the Patscherkofel. So people from Innsbruck came up on the weekends through the villages. Through Sistrans, Lans, Aldrans the route went down to Wilten. There were tons of skiers. And once someone broke her foot. And it was really far away. There were no helicopters then, so they had to get her with a sledge. The ambulance couldn’t drive up there. And so my admirer, he was a farmer’s son - they had horses and sledges they transported wood and were well equipped - he went and got her with the sledge. Got her to the village square with the sledge. And then the ambulance came from Innsbruck - they put the young woman into the car. My friend was standing next to the horses. The moment they put her into the car, he dropped dead. A heart attack. He was 32 years old. That caused me very great pain. And then somehow I met this other man, well, my husband, the man I married. That’s how it went in life. I cried a lot. But time passes and you get over it.
