This Elastic Slingshot Ride Broke in a Unique Way... - Failure Analysis 

shush mate

I would've still stayed there💀

@@braulygarcia9143shut up

lowkey that still looks fun

Pfp

Thats exactly the reason why it is a ball.

Youd think they designed it that way on purpose huh smfh

Yea but what if the end of the rope gets into their little roll cage and rips there head off clean?

​@@Guillermogonzalaz then that's a bad day😂

Honestly this calmed my anxiety about it

I've always gotten those recommendations

Dude that happened to me too!

Same, it's like RU-vid doesn't want me to go to any amusement park ever lol

Same lol

They're actually extremely rare. Like crazy rare.

Yep, this is like the 4th failure video i have see on these types of rides

I watched my neighbors go on one of those and I was watching from the front row and my knees involuntarily buckled when they shot up and that’s when I learned I would never be able to go on one and then I saw videos like this one and I was like “i’m never going back to an amusement park EVER”

Some are fine. When you see one look at the way the seats are attached to the ride. If it's metal cables it's fine if it's elastic avoid it

It’s rare to happen dw

Im going to assume you’ve seen the final destination movies hahhaa

👍

idk man, a ride whichs safety is hedged on the fact that something that is routinely mechanically tensioned and fatigued seems kind of really stupid.

At least the elastic bungee ones

The elastic ones are sketchy but I’d trust most cable slingshots. They’re really fun.

I'd agree to avoiding elastic ones, personally I'd trust most cable slingshots.

Whooops! Thanks for the info. It’s always refreshing to get intelligent responses on YT. I learn some pretty cool stuff here. You should have an affiliate link for comments and start posting all over the place…without the indication of your affiliate commission. That would be an amazing job…or more likely a side hustle.

Your lucky

Don't ride travelling carnivals and you won't have a problem

@@spinner4148 This wasn’t from a traveling carnival dumbf*ck

Lucky af! Prasie god for it

Ok and

Held

Holded?? Please tell me you don’t say that IRL

@@Insectoid_ aww cmon english is not my first lang and do you really never make any mistakes?

@@GlutzahnLP sorry! Then that’s fine. I didn’t realise. My apologies.

held*

I hate it when they do that in RU-vid shorts 😭

It’s a money thing I think. RU-vid needs to patch it.

and thats why... i turn off looping on youtube shorts and you should too

this is a very rare occurence, i dont think very many have happened in the last decade. you're safer in the park than on the way or going from the park in your car. pretty sure i learned this from this exact channel.

@@rtrojoshit’s rare but elastic bungee slingshots are actually pretty unsafe. You are much safer on a cable slingshot, and one that can’t be taken down like at a carnival.

Yeah well, the MSM journalists aren't known for their intellect. I'm surprised the headline didn't call it a "Roller Coaster" (every amusement ride is called a roller coaster in the media... as if they have no idea there are different types of rides, and yes they always put a space between roller and coaster!). Though to be generous to them, the cable may as well have snapped considering it was not in use, for all intents and purposes.

Every so many launches think it’s set at 100 jumps

Why? The riders were safe in spite of the accident, not even injured.

​@@PersonOfRandomnesss they got lucky. See the metal rod on the left tower, the capsule almost impaled that... this could easily cause serious injuries

@@Teh_Random_Canadian oh yeah anything that looks pointy is able to impale like that bud

@@PersonOfRandomnesss are…. Are you serious

@@PersonOfRandomnesss I don't know how to tell you this, but yes. If a human hits a pointy thing while going pretty fast, the pointy thing is going to go through them. Fuck, if you're going fast enough, the thing doesn't even need to be pointy, it'll just stab you anyways. Do you... do you not know how stabbing works?? What is the point being made here????

It's awful that it happened, but it's great that there weren't any injuries. Not just no fatalities, there were no injuries.

Ah yes those ride operators sure are safe thanks to that metal cage.

@@heilmadon Provided they do what they are supposed to do, and clear the launch area before the ropes are tightened, then yes they are perfectly safe, even if the ride does malfunction and launch with only one rope.

Yessir. The better channel name

Lol, I remember those days. Too bad I discovered the channel right as debunked was ending.

Just watch out for leeches!!

Final destination is completely fake and could never happen in real life.

@SupremeCakeVR 😐 a lot of situations on FD have happened in real life

@@micah7817 well not the roller coaster one

@SupremeCakeVR yes that 1 too. Not the whole cart but some have broken apart. Look it up, it's a few roller-coaster deaths
