The oscillating Lumberjack ride at Canada’s Wonderland theme park stopped suddenly, in mid-air, on Sunday. Videos posted to social media captured the sounds of passengers crying for help.

    In some clips, the park staff can be heard through a megaphone asking, “Is everyone doing OK up there?” The crowd of riders shouts back “No!” in near-unison.

    I got an inversion device couple of years back during the throes of an insanely-painful suspected herniated disc. The instructions were very clear that full inversion was not to last any longer than 5 minutes as it could be extremely dangerous.

    Can’t imagine doing 30 mins, with no previous exposure or training, fuuuuuck.
