28 Traumatized After Getting Stuck, Dangling During Faulty Amusement Park Ride (video)
Not less than 28 people are yet to recover from trauma after a theme park ride in Oregon left them hanging upside down for more than 20 minutes, over the weekend.
The traumatizing incident which happened over the weekend, saw 28 passengers riding Portland’s Oaks Amusement Park’s AtmosFEAR at around 2:55 p.m on Friday when the ride stopped in its place, suspending them all upside down in its “apex position,” the park said in a statement.
According to the amusement park, the ride operators working on AtmosFEAR, which can operate on either a 180- or 360-degree setting as it sends its riders flipping through the air on a loop called 911 and began initiating “emergency procedures.”
