My friend and I visited the Worlds of wonder adventure park on Sunday, 25th June 2017. We witnessed a man fall from a great height and this has left us traumatised and concerned about the safety of such rides. We took the ride at around 6pm. While the ride was running, in the first flip of the ride, the shoulder safety harness opened and a man fell of the ride, hitting his head an iron step on the way down.
We sat right behind the man, and the same would have happened to me, if it had flipped again. I was hanging off her seat, but she somehow managed to help me.
Everyone screamed for the ride to be stopped, but the operator let it continue. The man fell headfirst onto an iron step, then bounced off and into a bush. He has been hospitalised, with severe injuries.
The authorities vanished. All they wished for was us to exit the park. We eventually confronted an official, but were told it was a coincidence! I cannot comprehend how they could so casually equate fatal situations with coincidence.
I request everyone to share this and think before you take a step into an amusement park.
