A family of four was left dangling about 120 feet in the air for nearly three hours on a broken ride at Six Flags in Missouri before firefighters finally rescued them, according to reports. Two adults and two children were riding the Sky Screamer – an extreme spinning swing attraction that peaks at 236 feet – at the St. Louis amusement park Thursday when the thrill ride suddenly malfunctioned and screeched to a halt around 5:30 p.
