A day out to the theme park, goes horribly wrong. 6 people have died and another 10 were injured when a space shuttle simulator plunged to the ground in China. Survivors say that they heard an explosion just before a power cut sent the shuttle to earth.
One witness, Mr Lam described the horror of what he saw: "All the cabins but the one we were sitting in were destroyed. Some people fell onto the rail and some fell onto the ground. Some people died in front of me and were just hanging dead in their seats."
The theme park's Vice General Manager Zheng Hongxia was quick to defend the safety procedures:" All the facilities are under daily, weekly and monthly maintenance. On this point, the details of the daily maintenance data and information have been held by the safety department."
The park has been shut temporarily while an investigation takes place.
