00:00I did not cause the accident, so I cannot be at fault for anything that subsequently happened to him.
00:06I just remember everything was great, and then I heard something I've never heard at a ski resort.
00:13And that was a blood-curdling scream.
00:17Just, I can't do it. It was...
00:20And then...
00:22Boom.
00:30My dad is very insecure. He doesn't show it, but he doesn't trust his brain anymore.
00:42It's incredibly hard because he used to be able to multitask and do all sorts of complicated tasks,
00:48and now he has a hard time just following through one step at a time.
00:54And he used to be able to do multiple things at a time,
00:57so it's been really hard on his personality.
01:05Mr. Sanderson categorically hit me on that ski slope, and that is the truth.
01:10My daughter was down the hill, my son was to my left, so I was skiing.
01:18My eyes were not fixated only on my son when Mr. Sanderson skied directly into my back.
01:24I was skiing, and two skis came between my skis, forcing my legs apart,
01:30and then there was a body pressing against me, and there was a very strange grunting noise.
01:37So my brain was trying to make sense of what was happening.
01:40I thought, is this a practical joke? Is someone doing something perverted?
01:46This is really, really strange.
01:48My mind was going very, very quickly, and I was trying to ascertain what was happening.
01:53So skis slide between, you kind of freeze, you end up, maybe your skis kind of cross,
02:02you end up going down.
02:05Would you agree that Mr. Sanderson fell to the ground and then you fell on top?
02:10I don't know if it was simultaneous. I don't remember.
02:13But he was still on the ground, right?
02:15Yes.
02:16When you said, what are you doing?
02:18Yes.
02:18Okay. Like, why did you do that?
02:20Yes.
02:21And he said, I think you skied into me.
02:24Yes.
02:24And that's when you were furious and said, you skied directly into my effing back
02:31at the top of your lungs.
02:32Yes, I did.
02:33Okay.
02:34I apologize for my bad language.
02:36Terry, did you cause the ski collision with Ms. Paltrow?
02:41Absolutely not.
02:44I swear to my God and my family and my other father in heaven, it's like, no, no, I did not.
02:50You said your skis were on after the collision.
02:52Do you recall your head being downhill or uphill?
02:55Absolutely downhill. I was going down and absolutely.
02:59So several witnesses say the opposite and you disagree?
03:03I disagree, absolutely, because I couldn't get up.
03:05And where was Gwyneth's head when she came to her rest?
03:11Head down, head up?
03:12I have no idea. As far as I know, she didn't exist.
03:16Because you didn't see anything?
03:17I was out. I had no idea.
