Gwyneth Paltrow let out a “blood-curdling” scream before she “lost control” and crashed into a skier on a Utah ski slope, her alleged victim told a court.

Taking to the stand for the first time since the civil trial began six days ago, Terry Sanderson, 76, a retired optometrist, told the jury what he remembered of the seconds leading up to the collision.

“I remember everything was great and then I heard something I’ve never heard at a ski resort before - this blood-curdling scream like someone was out of control and going to hit a tree and die," he said, mimicking the sound with his hands in the air, adding he “did not like going through the scene”.

Mr Sanderson is suing Paltrow for more than $300,000 (£250,000), claiming she skied into him recklessly from behind in the 2016 incident at Deer Valley park, breaking four of his ribs and causing head trauma that continues to affect him to this day.

Paltrow has countersued for $1 and attorney fees, alleging Mr Sanderson was at fault.
