What an overexaggerated account of two chairs bumping. A pathetic excuse for journalism and a desperate attempt to get clicks.

Don't look down!

Mer, who has (thankfully) not been stuck on a ride nearly as high as that.

^That sounds like something what I would (have) say.

Luckily the injuries were not fatal, and this is not something people should laugh at as it could have been worse.

Well it didn't really look like a bump.... It looked like the back end of one carriage was in the people part of the other carriage. Something like this happening at 10 feet is scary but at over 100 feet, it's frightening.

Plus, again, most people go to parks thinking they won't be put in real danger with the possibility of being really hurt. Or stranded at the top for hours....
