True (sad story).**
Many years ago.....1968.....on honeymoon in Scarborough. I persuaded a young MrsD to go on the 'big wheel' with me¹. As we got to the top I noticed it was attached by just one large bolt and my pleasure immediately turned to fear. I just could not wait to get off.... if I could have got them to stop it I would have done.
A week after we got home one of the bolts sheared and 3 young girls were killed.
**hope I have not ruined the joke
