Children stuck at high altitude at amusement park (video)


An amusement park ride stopped mid-air due to a power outage. The children were “trapped” at high altitude, having been stuck there for 20 minutes.

At the famous amusement park in Athens Allou Fun Park on Saturday there was panic – the generator that ensures the operation of one of the most popular and tallest attractions has failed. Because of his stop, the children were upstairs, and worried parents and relatives were rushing about below (video).

In addition, the weather was rainy at the time of the incident, so this problem created an additional threat in the event of a thunderstorm.

Fortunately, everything ended well, the incident did not have serious consequences. However, writes newsbeast.gr, it once again raises security issues in amusement parks.
