It was a scary Sunday for amusement park-goers in Wisconsin and North Carolina this weekend. What was meant to be a fun day out turned into a nightmare for eight passengers trapped in a stalled roller coaster. Emergency crews rushed to the scene and it took more than three hours to get all the passengers safely to the ground.

One was taken to the hospital for treatment, while the cause of the ride's malfunction is still unknown. The incident follows another roller coaster scare in North Carolina, where visitors reported a fissure in one of its steel support beams. Thankfully, nobody was harmed in this incident either, but it's important to be aware of potential safety hazards in amusement parks.
