Got to quickly wrap everything up before school starts, so trying to finish the assignments. Today the review is about the Singapore Flyer where dozens were trapped due to a malfunction, when one of the drive motors experienced a short circuit causing the halt. More than 100 people were left trapped in the flyer for over a few hours while some were lucky to be lowered to the ground by harnesses. A passenger trapped accounted that it was very hot as the air-conditioning when off but later came on again, some could not control their bladder and had to urinate in the cabin. Some had to miss their flight back home to celebrate Christmas while others who decide not to go on the flyer were also implicated as their passports were with their friends who were trapped onboard. The Singapore Flyer, the world's largest observation wheel is set to undergo a series of checks before it is allowed to function again. A ride on the Singapore Flyer takes around half an hour and the wheel has been operational since February.
