I suspect that at the time it occurred the park management didn’t want it known that they marooned two little girls up in the air on the Parachute Drop. There was a death on one of their other rides. They gave the office address to cover their hind ends so the report made it appeared it took place outside the park.

Sounds horribly scary. One way to achieve your fifteen minutes of fame. Thanks for the entertainment.

The Parachute Drop tower is still standing. It was designated as a historic landmark, mainly because it cost too much to dismantle it. If the ride were still in operation today, there is no way they’d get me to go on it again. =:-0

But hey, you’re famous! I don’t care for heights either, and yet we’ll be driving through the mountains next week. But at least there you have the good ole earth under your feet. Fun post, though I’m sure it wasn’t fun for you at the time.

As far as I know, ours was the only incident of the Parachute Drop malfunctioning. My sister and I were lucky that the chute’s mechanism was simply stuck. It could have been worse. The chute could have broken loose from the cable and my sister and I could have plunged to the ground. That thought seriously bothered me. I had falling dreams for years afterward.

So glad your results were positive. Seems like there have been a lot of midway accidents lately.
