The mayor inspected the amusement park in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, and found that several rides were #OperatingWithoutPermits.
A terrifying moment, captured on camera, is the summary of every amusement park visitor’s worst nightmare.

The momentum of the ride then pushed her off the stand at speed, sending her flying backwards.
