Fairground Accident
Fairground Accident
The funfair industry has the best safety record of any passenger carrying industry in the U.K. Although extremely rare accidents unfortunately do happen (no industry has a zero accident record although that is what we must all strive for). Over the weekend at a park in the Manchester area a young girl was injured on a waltzer ride.
The cause of the accident has not been made known as yet, but the injured girl was trapped underneath the moving platform of the ride and suffered two broken legs but here injuries are not life threatening.
