The girl, from Greenwood, Delaware, was on the Sky Ride, a slow gondola-style attraction. Video shows her hanging by her hands as a crowd 25 feet below reaches up and calls to her. She lets go, strikes a tree limb on the way down, and is caught by people in the crowd.

Investigators assisted by park personnel inspected the ride and the car the victim had used. They found everything was in proper working order and all safety equipment was intact and operational at the time of the incident, the sheriff's office said.

CNN: If Trumpcare had passed, girl would have died in upstate NY after falling from amusement park ride. Luckily, she was able to receive medical attention since her family were receiving healthcare benefits through ACA.

How did that even happen?

No idea. I guess if you're skinny enough and not sitting still, you could slip through the harness.

I'm not watching that

what was the person on the ride with her doing? didn't look like anything. just sitting there.

The biggest tragedy was that it was shot in portrait.

The girl filming: "Maybe security should be underneath to catch her. I mean, this is your job, isn't it?" I agree everybody should try and get underneath to save her, but no, that is not their job

Yeah, that made me laugh. And, of course, rather than making the situation any better, multiple people in the crowd have their phones out to record a tragedy unfold.

Gotta love the lady calling out the security ppl to do their job. I am pretty sure catching humans from falling wasnt part of the kob description.

On another note. People pay to ride that? That may be the most boring ride I have ever seen.

The New York accent is terribly unattractive on the females...especially the dumb ones.
"That's your job, isn't it!?"
No...I'm sorry ma'am, the plummeting guest division is on their way! Wtf

CNN link, I'm surprised they didn't find a Trump policy to blame for this.
You folks need help

I would like to know why she's hanging in the first place. They had to stop the ride due to a guest disturbance, I'm assuming her. It appears to be completely her fault.

I was expecting one of those crazy upside down twisting rides, not the slowest moving most leisurely ride ever.
How does that happen? I feel like Darwin will eventually get this one.

It looks like her knees are facing out and that someone is holding her by the arms or armpits right? I wouldn't doubt that the person intentionally got out of the restraints and either tried to jump or slipped through while taking a photo or something. It wasn't even all that high really.

25 ft is high enough to kill you.
