Fairgoers Left Hanging 200 Feet In The Air On Ride During Severe Weather
The video is terrifying.
People go to theme parks for excitement and fun, especially on rides that make your heart race and your stomach drop. But sometimes, things don’t go as planned, and what starts as a fun ride can quickly become scary.
That’s precisely what happened at Six Flags in Mexico City when a ride stopped 200 feet in the air during bad weather, leaving riders stranded high above the ground.
It was a regular Wednesday afternoon when the trouble began. Visitors at Six Flags Mexico enjoyed their day when they hopped on the "Supergirl Sky Flight," a ride that lifts people high and spins them around fast.
The ride is known for giving a thrilling experience where you feel like flying through the air. But that day, the thrill turned into fear when the ride suddenly stopped because of a storm.
Heavy rain, strong winds, and a thick fog rolled into the park, forcing the ride to an unexpected halt. The people on the ride were left dangling in the air, exposed to the harsh weather.
One of the riders started filming the scene, capturing the tense moments as they waited to see what would happen next.
The video shows the riders stuck 200 feet above the ground, with rain pouring down and the ride swaying in the wind. The weather made the situation even more frightening, as the riders had no idea how long they would be stuck up there.
The ride, which usually spins at 40 miles per hour, was now hanging in the air, leaving everyone onboard anxious and cold.
As the weather worsened, the theme park shut down the ride completely to keep everyone safe. It took a while, but the ride was slowly lowered back down, and all 32 people could get off safely. Even though it was a scary experience, no one was hurt, and everyone eventually returned to the ground.
