Terrifying moment: Dozens of tourists are left “hanging upside down on rollercoaster for over an hour”! (video)

Another roller-coaster at the same amusement site also became stuck last year

This is the heart-stopping moment a rollercoaster malfunction left 20 tourists stranded while hanging face down in mid-air at an amusement park in eastern China.

Social media footage shows the rollercoaster carriage packed with riders being stuck on the rail on Saturday at Rongchuang Amusement Park in Wuxi, Jiangsu province.

The visitors were reportedly dangling upside down for over an hour before they were rescued by the facility staff.
