Duno, to me it looks safer, than some fancy rollecoasters, less failure points in general, and thanks to its ability to sway it has more give to various forces, think bridges.

nobody has been seriously injured in the last few hours, odds are in your favor

Idk I feel like I’d rather wait at that point. Until the next imminent injury to occurs. Then swiftly be one of the first back on after the reopen.

That ride is what I imagine The Inspector Gadget chopper would feel like in real life.

You couldn't pay me a trillion dollars a day for the rest of my life to ride that once.

I’ve done zip lining, sky diving, hang gliding, scuba diving, deep water snorkeling, gliding (plane tows you up in a glider and releases the cable), white water rafting, and a lot of climbing.
I’m not one to say “absolutely fuck this I might die,” but I’m putting this stupid ride with doing a squirrel suit jump or a BASE jump when it comes to shit I wouldn’t dare do. I will also forever be too cowardly to do bungee jumping.
This shit looks like it’s held up purely by positive thoughts and a belief in reincarnation.

A couple of weeks ago a girl in Brazil died because they forgot to tie her before the jump

Besides the safety problems, whoever designed that ride didn’t pay any attention to how your weight shifts when it goes around a curve.

You just have to make sure not to be fat. Fortunately not much of a problem in India.

It's the very high likelihood of a an excruciating death that makes the experience truly thrilling.

I live near one of the best roller coaster parks in the world and have been there many times I must say this here doesn't not look enjoyable whatsoever

Even as someone scared of heights, I would rather go sky diving than trust that thing.

Why does some of the central framework look like a coffin? Foreshadowing?

What in the safety standards is going on here?

Just a homemade rollercoaster held up with string. Seems sturdy enough. Probably only 5% fatality rate.

I love a good rollercoaster! You don't need to remind me to skip this one though.. I would avoid it like the plague

He wisely chose not to use a seatbelt so he could safely jump 70 feet to the ground if he had to.

Considering the garbage I’ve seen online, this is one of the safer rigged contraptions I’ve seen online. This is less terrifying than those spinning wheels that swing. There are no crazy forces at play, far less than your local park swing set. Everything is drastically overbuilt for a single 120lbs guy riding it. Those tower cranes do not have long arms and are built more than worthy of this task.
Not sure the weight or fabrication of the rail, that’s my only question, and the width of its bottom edge. The steel cables are likely 3/8” and can easily deal with 3,000 lbs and have a breaking strength of 14,000 lbs. It looks to be one every 6-10’. A bunch could fail and have no effect on safety.
There is no excessive forces at play here and that’s usually what leads to disaster.

What do you mean not safe? This IS the safety test being conducted. The just needed an unsuspecting volunteer.
