Apollo 13 Ride Traps Festivalgoers Festivalers upside down at the Boardmasters event

Festival -goers at a major musical event found themselves in a breathtaking situation after a popular fun walk suddenly closed, leaving several people blocked upside down in the air.

The incident occurred early Thursday morning in Boardmasters, a surf and music festival held every year in Cornwall, England. According to the video captured by the participants and a declaration of the event organizers, the journey of Apollo 13 underwent a brown power failure around 1 hour

An eyewitness video circulated on Tiktok showing that the runners were suspended above the ground, unable to move for about 20 minutes.
