"A south Auckland theme park employee died after becoming crushed in a ferris wheel this morning. Michael Ross Stuart, 21, of Papakura, was cleaning the junior ferris wheel at Rainbow's End when the accident happened. Police Inspector William Taylor said the death was not being treated as suspicious. Counties-Manukau Police were called to the scene at 10am along with Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) representatives. Mr Taylor said Mr Stuart's body had been removed from the scene and a postmortem would be carried out tomorrow." - Source, Yahoo News

Bummer, I can picture exactly what happened in my mind after seeing some guy working on the Sky Wheel at Darling Harbour while it was moving. Poor guy.
