It might be just a skiing accident, but the legal fight between Gwyneth Paltrow and Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist, was followed with great interest on the internet. 

The case that caught the world's attention

Losing a day of skiing

Asked to assess how she had suffered as a result of the 2016 crash, Paltrow stated, “Well, we lost half a day of skiing.” The comment was widely mocked on social media.

Fears of a sex attack

Paltrow testified that Sanderson’s “body pressed into my back so I froze. There was a body pressing against me. I thought is someone doing something perverted? "

It was projected by many as a "tough but cool look."
