Here in the UK they are more interested in what they can steal than putting the fair together properly , crime in Tesco's and Homebase ect always increases when the fair is in town.

I've been on that ride before - not there, but the same ride, its pretty intense. And everytime I go on a ride at an amusement park theres this constant nagging 'I hope this doesn't break....' in my head right along with the 'wheee I love these butterflies in my stomach'....

Couple of things come to mind: 1. Was the person shooting this video doing so while riding on another one of the carnival rides?
2. That female cop really sucks at crowd control.

That fuckin sucks. Carnies never inspect these things.

I dont think that is called a malfunction. That thing broke apart.

COLUMBUS, Ohio
One person was killed and other seven were injured after a ride malfunctioned at the Ohio State Fair.

A swinging and spinning amusement park ride called the Fire Ball malfunctioned and broke apart on the opening day of the fair.

Five of the injured were taken to either Wexner Medical Center or Grant Medical Center in critical condition. The remaining injured were taken to local hospitals in stable condition.

Authorities have not identified any of the victims at this time.

Video captured by a bystander shows the ride swinging back and forth like a pendulum and spinning in the air when it crashes into something and part of the ride flies off, throwing riders to the ground.

A company providing rides at the fair this year describes the Fire Ball as an "aggressive thrill" ride.

On its website, Amusements of America says that since its debut in 2002, the Fire Ball has become "one of the most popular thrill rides on the AOA Midway." The company description of the ride says it swings riders 40 feet above the midway while spinning them at 13 revolutions per minute.

The company did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment.

Gov. John Kasich ordered a full investigation and also ordered that all rides be shut down at the fair until additional safety inspections can be completed.

Director of Agriculture David Daniels says all of rides are checked several times when they're being set up to ensure they're set up the way the manufacturer intended.

Officials say the Fire Ball ride was inspected at a couple of different stages and was signed off Wednesday.
