Hundreds Stranded On The London Eye

If it can happen in London, it might happen on the Singapore Flyer too. You’d probably think Marina Bay doesn’t offer such a nice view when you’ve been up in the air for an hour or so and you badly need to pee.

Sightseers were suspended up to 450 feet above the ground on Monday night as workmen repaired one of the four huge tires that turn the observation wheel.

Staff spoke to visitors over an intercom system fitted in each of the 32 glass pods. They were offered water, blankets and glucose tablets stored in "comfort packs."
