The rider reportedly lost her balance in a partially open cabin.

She managed to grab hold of the structure and rest her foot on the cabin below.

The brave employee grabbed her hand and guided her into the cabin below.

Due to other similar incidents, amusement park safety has come under scrutiny worldwide.

At least 20 people were involved in a chairlift collapse at a resort in Nalchik, Russia.

Eight people were rushed to hospital after a cable snapped, sending chairs plunging into a lake.

Meanwhile, in Saudi Arabia’s Green Mountain Park in Taif, a ride malfunction injured at least 23 people when its central pole broke.

Three of the victims remain in critical condition.
