so i am reading articles on foxnews.com yesterday -- and there is a sad article about 2 people who tragically died after the carousel they were on jumped off the tracks and slammed into a pole...it made me re-think the rides we went on last summer!!
a roller coaster where the "seat belt" was a rope that was like a foot long...
a ferris wheel where the "latch" on the side of the car we were in was a rusty chain, and it never stopped -- even for you to get on and off...
the umbrella ride -- i did not go on this, so i am not sure how truly safe it was!!
my favorite line from the article is this -- "Accidents in amusement parks are frequent in Ukraine. Safety rules are often neglected and many rides are not properly checked." -- because it is something i saw with my own eyes!
