This is the moment a cable snapped on a fairground ride, sending thrill-seekers crashing towards the ground in Spain. Dramatic footage taken by onlookers on the ground shows the catapult bungee, which had passengers strapped into seats, being launched into the air. Just as the passengers are being swung in a circle, the cable suddenly snaps, sending the seats crashing to the ground at high speed. Onlookers could be heard screaming and shouting out: 'My God' as the incident unfolded on the slingshot ride called Steel Max. Separate footage showed passengers lying on the ground by the ride as they waited for paramedics to arrive.
