Brings a whole new meaning to the word 'freefall'

I was glad to read the accompanying text, that all involved were OK, I would be interested to know who manufactured that ride.

"We were on the Ride when the one stallation just collapsed!!!! It was terrifying!!! You could actually see me praying before the last circulation started (as a joke LOL). The SABC reported that it was a 1.5m fall, but on Monday I went with E-tv to measure the fall. It was approx 3m. You could see on the video that the ride was at the top when it fell. It was a terrifying experience!!!"

Holy cow, geez, that would be scary. It sometimes feel like the gondala is going to fall of the arms when ur on a miami. Hopefully everyone is ok

No body was injured during this accident thank god. Probably just shock and very minor injuries if any.
