This just increased my fear of those rides, you can't expect these things to be maintenanced properly.

I have never ridden any ride ever in my life and this is just adding to my reasons why not.

Think about what the people sitting opposite of them must have been thinking? Bet they freaked the fuck out.

This is actually one of my favorite rides at the fair. Not going to lie, that this image has crossed my mind while I've been riding.

Honestly I'll continue to ride it (though it might be tough convincing others now) because this was an unfortunate freak accident

Hope all who are injured recover fully. Feel bad for the family who lost a son

I'll never trust those carnival rides.

Seems unstable/unsafe since they literally just set it up a few hours ago and it can easily be packed up.

Why does there always have to be a bunch of screaming by women? No "oh shit" or anything like that, just always screaming.

I know, I dumb thing for me to say, but just a pet peeve of mine.

According to a Reddit thread about this, eyewitness accounts stated that the operator of the ride took off his shirt and fled the scene when this happened.


But yeah, stuff like this is partly why I don't go on rides or roller-coasters.
