Iconic rollercoaster shut down indefinitely as vid shows riders rescued mid-air
Briefly

At Luna Park in Coney Island, safety is our number one priority, and ride maintenance, and thorough testing happens daily before Luna Park opens and throughout the day as necessary.
The Coney Island Cyclone is a 97-year-old roller coaster that is meticulously maintained and tested daily. It is not uncommon to stop a ride and evacuate the ride if an issue arises for the safety of our guests.
I'm a little disappointed, I must say. This is my first time to Coney Island and I was really looking forward to it. It's such a historic ride.
The Cyclone is currently closed due to a mechanical problem that developed yesterday and is currently undergoing repairs. We will reopen the Cyclone roller coaster when the repair is complete and the ride passes its DOB inspection.
