A theme park guest ended up 'dangling' from a fence after they appeared to be trying to escape the queue for a ride. The Alton Towers visitor was reported to been attempting to climb a fence when the incident happened.
The person, who Stoke on Trent Live said looked to be in their late teens, had been queuing for the Rita rollercoaster. According to reports, the theme park visitor's foot got stuck on the top of a fence they were attempting to climb as they were coming down the other side. They ended up suspended by their leg in plain view of dozens of onlookers.
Alton Towers sits in 500 acres in the nearby Staffordshire countryside. Because of the park's rural nature, an air ambulance was dispatched to the scene, followed by a land ambulance which eventually took the visitor away.
