Firefighters rescued 28 people who were stuck dangling 100ft upside down on a ride at an amusement park in Oregon.
One person with a pre-existing medical condition was taken to hospital as a precaution after the AtmosFEAR ride stopped, Oaks Amusement Park, in Portland, said in a statement posted on social media.
However, they said no one was injured in the incident.
Chris Ryan said he and his wife, who were at the park for his birthday were just about to go on the ride – which operates like a pendulum, with the capacity to swing riders completely upside down – when they saw it was stuck.
He heard people saying: “Oh my God, they are upside down.” He said they decided to walk away because of “how scary the situation was”.
