I think that Will did that DELIBERATELY, very likely he was already cheating on her and wanted her out of the way without a messy and expensive divorce. Unfortunately, for him, the accident didn't kill her as it could have very easily as the breaks were below the waist rather than in the cervical part of her spine.

Hmm... I was expecting some kind of scheme. 🤔 Will trying to get rid of OP for insurance money and/or to able to openly be with his mistress as a widower.

Well, for her suing him, regardless of if it was right or not, people forget she wouldn't have won the case if there was not a case to be made that she deserved some form of payment. Goading someone into something that resulted in harm, or even death, is something you can sue someone over. If someone is goading you and pressuring you to try to run across a freeway, because they do it all the time, and for whatever reason, you get hurt, despite being the one that choose to try to run across, the person pressuring you into doing it is still at fault if you get injured.

Indifference. It's absolutely his actions which pushed op into NOT opposing him. He even used his hands to guide her into the flip. And he attempted moving her which then she smacked her head on a rock? What expert would do that? His ego led him into telling her he was a "Expert" . Which gave op a sense of false security. If he had been professional he would never have taken her on the last run down a dangerous hill. He would not have left her in his wake, he would NEVER had pushed her into doing a flip. She never would have done so if she had not trusted him. She even questioned his decision if she was able to do so. His Indifference to her well being and his ignorance to her worries point blank makes him responsible. It even screams to me that he may have wanted her to get hurt. I mean he had to know she would be hurt to some degree.

[@JessieVictors]

Had she hired a private investigator, I think OP would've learned her husband was cheating *before* the "accident"! He wanted her out of the way: 1) his persistent insistence, 2) skiing at night, 3) skiing recklessly fast, 3) calling her a coward and pressuring her, 4) demanding she do a flip, and 5) tossing her into the air to spin her around! Reckless behavior for 6) a first time skier! I think buying the boots was part of his plan too! Were they ill-fitting? OP doesn't mention other gifts, so I infer they rented skis and poles but not boots

Will may have been cheating before the ski trip. He played a mind game in pushing her to do the flip on a more advanced slop than she was comfortable with and at/or near nighttime. Will got what he deserved for cheating and pushing her to do the flip. One she should've said no and a be firm NO.

How would he feel if he was the one who got injured?! People like him make me sick !! When you truly love someone you do not abandon them in their time I need. Love is not just about the good times and the money. Yes she could have said no but she trusted her husband. Luckily karma always Gives people what they deserve. She should have got rid of him when he called her A burden !! As much as he deserves everything that he gets I don't know that a judge would actually agree that it was completely his fault that she got hurt. Because she is a grown woman and she didn't have to do anything you didn't make her do it. Just like he needs to take accountability for his cheating ways. She needs to take accountability for the fact that she made a mistake trusting Him and doing whatever he told her to do!! A gun wasn't held to her head she did not have to do it she chose to do it and as adults we need to take responsibility for our Own actions in life. She obviously wasn't going to leave him for the accident and didn't blame him until She found out he was cheating. So she's in a way not any better than he is. Friends don't hurt you the way he hurt her!
