Video Shows Slingshot Ride's Cable Snapping With People Aboard [VIDEO]

The first time I rode a roller coaster I was 17 years old, so I wasn't exactly a child protegé. I was afraid I was going to fall out. To this day, I still won't ride multiple rides at Cedar Point. One is enough.

After watching this video from an amusement park in southern France, I will probably never again ride a roller coaster.

In the video posted on YouTube, you see a 24-year-old in a slingshot ride, who has suffered a broken leg from the accident.

This might be the scariest thing you will see when it comes to riding on a thrill-seeking ride.
