Passengers became stranded high up in the air after a swing carousel malfunctioned in Hamburg.
https://p.dw.com/p/5JOgw Advertisement Nearly two dozen carnivalgoers were rescued after a 90 minute ordeal in central Hamburg late on Tuesday, having been stuck 25 meters (82 feet) in the air on a swing carousel ride.
The Hamburger Dom carnival is held in the St.Pauli area of the city three times a year, and is one of Germany's longest-running and most well-visited fun fairs, attracting some 10 million guests annually.
On Tuesday evening, 23 passengers become stuck partly up the 70-meter (230-foot) ride when it malfunctioned and stopped moving.
Firefighters arrived at the scene, erecting ladders to bring down each guest individually.
Authorities said that no one needed medical attention, but that the ride would remain closed through Sunday when the carnival concludes.
