"I heard a loud thud. The ropeway was shaking violently and the passengers were screaming. I rushed to the direction of the sound. I found panic-stricken people, including two girls, screaming inside the trolleys," he said.
One of the trolleys hit a rock on the ground, while the other was hanging six feet above. Mr Pujhar and the others used a chair to reach the passengers and then broke open the cable cars to rescue them.
