Kb27 Supersonic February 5, 2017 Share February 5, 2017 A 13-year-old girl has died after being flung out of a fast-turning ride at an amusement park in southwestern China. Media reports say she fell on to iron railings and was taken to a hospital, where she died. An investigation showed her seatbelt had broken and a passenger safety bar did not fit tightly enough at the Chaohua Park near the city of Chongqing. The "Travel Through Space" ride was inspected in December, reports said. Chinese state media carried mobile phone footage showing the girl hanging from the seat before being hurled off. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-38873719 Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFIuY96Afp8 ↡ Advertisement 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atrecord Supersonic February 6, 2017 Share February 6, 2017 Sigh... This is so sad... Wonder how could this have happened... Battlestar Galactica at RWS was shut down for ages before it resumed. Everyone was complaining, but it was likely a good decision. Also, maybe it's a good thing that my kids and us all dun have the heart to go for such thrills... RIP... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playtime Twincharged February 6, 2017 Share February 6, 2017 Video was removed by youtube but ST reported this yesterday. Hmmm.. was it even supposed to go 360??As in the riders should have been feet down at all times. It would be pulling substantial Gs.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
