A group of people - including children as young as 13 - spent their New Year's Eve stuck 170ft in the air on a broken down ride for 10 hours.
The Bomber Maxx fairground ride stopped working at around 8:30pm, when sparks began shooting from its engine.
Firefighters were called to the scene in Brittany, France, where they then spent 10 hours lowering each person to safety through the night - with the operation finally ending shortly after 6am this morning.
Despite the terrifying ordeal, riders described how they wished one another a happy new year and shared mobile phones to call loved ones from the air.
