This took place at Istiklol Amusement Park in Jizzakh (Uzbek) on last month and the video’s just out now.
Source: A video captured the horrifying moment a pendulum type of ride suddenly broke in half mid-air over the weekend, killing two people and injuring dozens.
CBS News reports the incident happened at an India amusement park on a popular ride.
The municipal commissioner tweeted that a criminal investigation is being done to determine what caused the accident.
Just tragic. Thoughts and prayer to the friends and family of the victim(s).
I have a policy that if I don’t test life for foolish reasons, I’ll live longer. I smoke cigars but I’d never go to an amusement park in eastern block countries with questionable human rights record.
When 69% of the women in your country are convinced they deserve to get smacked around from time to time, your country has a questionable human rights record.
Here in Canada govern your self-preservation by one simple amusement park rule: If it’s on wheels, no thanks. Traveling amusement rides are probably just a hair safer than a homemade guillotine. Static rides run by questionable people who care very little about their lives or future aren’t getting to decide mine.
Call me an asshole. It’s just one of my things.
This is the second pendulum ride to snap in half in the last 45 days This one in India shows the aftermath.

If this doesn’t convince you to not trust amusement parks, you’re inhuman. Deathtraps, I tell you.
