In April, a 20-year-old student was killed after her hair became entangled in the rotator shaft of a Ferris wheel.
Priyanka Bauri was dragged from her seat after her hair got stuck, with local reports saying she was suspended by her locks for almost a minute before her body fell to the ground.
Reports indicate that his hair and the skin covering his head became entangled in the rotator shaft as his body hit the ground with a nauseating thud.
And in 2016, a traumatized schoolgirl lost all of her hair in a horrific scalping accident on a Ferris wheel in India.
The girl was trying to take a selfie next to the Ferris wheel before her hair got caught in the ride outside a university in Baraut, a small town just over 65 km north of Delhi.
Her hair got tangled in the big spinning wheel and was slowly pulled out completely.
