A park's drop tower ride abruptly stopped mid-air, leaving several visitors stranded in central China.

Video filmed in Zhengzhou City in Henan Province on August 1, shows a drop tower with multiple riders suspended without descending.

One of the trapped visitors reported that the park experienced multiple power outages that day, and she remained suspended for approximately 10 minutes before safely descending once power was restored.

In response, Jinshuiyuan Wonderland staff explained that the ride’s suspension was due to unstable voltage on the park's opening day, leading to the automatic stop. They noted that the number of riders on the drop tower at the time was minimal and assured that no injuries were reported.

To address visitor concerns, the park has refunded tickets to those affected and has taken measures to prevent future incidents by installing additional transformers for stable power supply and conducting a thorough inspection of all equipment to ensure safety.

The Zhengzhou Market Supervision Bureau's Jinshuiyuan Market Supervision Office confirmed that the ride’s equipment was not at fault. The malfunction was attributed to a power overload caused by high temperatures, not a defect in the equipment itself.

Previous inspections of the ride’s certification and safety standards were found to be compliant, and the bureau will increase safety checks on large amusement park rides in the future.

8月1日中午11点半左右，河南郑州金水源欢乐谷游乐园发生了一起突发事件，该游乐园内的跳楼机旋转塔在半空中突然停下，导致多名游客被困。

据目击者拍摄的视频显示，跳楼机旋转塔载着多名游客悬停在半空中，没有下落的迹象，下方聚集了大量围观群众。其中一名被困游客透露，当天园区多次出现停电现象，她在空中停留了约10分钟后，随着电力恢复才安全降落。

对于这一事件，金水源欢乐谷的工作人员进行了回应。他们表示，由于游乐园第一天开业，电压不稳定导致旋转塔自动暂停，进而造成游客被悬挂在半空中的情况。工作人员还强调，当时旋转塔上的游客数量并不多，且经过检查，所有游客均未受伤。为安抚游客情绪，园区已给被困游客退了门票。为避免类似情况再次发生，园区已经采取了增设变压器以增加电力供应的稳定性，并对游乐园内所有的设备进行了全面检查，以确保设备的安全运行。

郑州市二七区市场监督管理局金水源市场监督管理所的工作人员也表示，经核查，该项目的游乐设备不存在质量问题。此次事件是由于高温天气导致用电超负荷而跳闸停电，而非设备本身的问题。监管部门此前已检查过游乐设备的相关资质，包括出厂和检验合格证等，确认符合安全规范要求。未来，监管部门将加强对游乐园内大型设备的安全检查。
