During cross examination, Dr. Boehme acknowledged that Sanderson could not have flown into the air as he claimed.
He said Paltrow would have had to be traveling at 50 to 60mph for that to happen, according to his version of events.
In his testimony on Thursday, Boehme used math to prove that ‘the object that fell on Mr. Sanderson had to weigh more than 100 pounds.’
He said the only way Paltrow’s version of events could have happened, is if they both rotated at a speed of 400-degrees per second — which eh said not even Olympic divers can do.
When the plaintiff tried to once again call Dr. Richard Boehme to the stand to dispute claims that his math was incorrect and Sanderson’s version of events would not have resulted in the type of injuries he has claimed, the Zoom video was not working.
Paltrow’s tried to strike his testimony, arguing they could only hear every fourth word, but the plaintiff decided to switch to a phone call, figuring that could work better.
It seemed to work for a while, but the call soon dropped.
At the rate they were going, Paltrow’s attorneys argued they may not have time to cross-examine him before closing arguments.
But they were eventually able to get Boehme to testify over cellphone.
