Terrifying video shows Six Flags Mexico park visitors dangling high during a rainstorm
Storyful
Six Flags Mexico has certainly received a lot of attention from its customer service department – after a group of park visitors found themselves stuck in a harrowing situation amid very bad weather.
Watch the video… the SkyScreamer ride was stopped while the riders were suspended in the air… leaving them dangling high above the ground for almost 10 minutes.
As if that wasn’t terrifying enough, the collapse occurred when torrential rains poured down on the Mexico City-based theme park.
The incident was horrifying… and not just because of the bad weather… several riders held on to the metal chains for dear life – some screaming in fear.
Fortunately, no one was injured during last week’s incident… with Six Flags Mexico later confirming that bad weather caused the ride delay on the SkyScreamer, among other attractions that were affected.
The theme park continued … “Unfortunately, the storm intensified during the evacuation process, causing some uncomfortable moments for our visitors. Park staff attended to all visitors and no incidents were reported. Sky Screamer resumed normal operations shortly thereafter.”
This isn’t the first chaotic incident to happen at a Six Flags park this summer. As TMZ previously reported… it had to be a boy rescued after a fall entered a man-made river during a malfunction during the Roaring Rapids ride at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington.
No one was injured in that incident, but it made for some good viral footage… which circulated online for several days.
People go to Six Flags for all the thrills, not for the unplanned thrills and chills!
