On Thursday, July 31, 2025, a devastating accident occurred at #GreenMountainPark in #Taif, #SaudiArabia, when the “360 Degrees” ride broke apart mid-operation, leaving 23 people injured, including three in critical condition. Shocking video circulating on social media shows the ride’s central support pole snapping during an upward swing, sending the platform crashing down while passengers—still strapped in—slammed into the ground. Witnesses described the pole recoiling violently, striking nearby bystanders. Local authorities have launched an investigation into the incident. Hospitals in the area declared a code yellow emergency as victims were treated both on-site and at nearby facilities. This incident comes just months after a fatal roller coaster malfunction in Delhi, India, in April, which claimed the life of a 24-year-old woman.
