OSHKOSH, Wisconsin (AP) -- A woman attending a Christian festival died Saturday after plunging about 45 feet from a bungee-like amusement ride.

Workers at the Lifest 2007 event shut down the Air Glory ride after the accident, which occurred about 4:45 p.m. A prayer service was held at 7 p.m. and the music festival resumed about 7:30 p.m.


The part I bolded cracked me up. Woman dies at 5, party back on track by 7:30. Ahhh, you have to love the faithful.



"(The person) hit the ground and she was not moving at all," Childers told the Oshkosh Northwestern newspaper.

Ummm, yeah, I'd say so. Smiley: lol

Actually, heaven is upwards. Not where she was going unfortunately!

I'm from Wisconsin too and this is the first I've heard of it. I guess the telegraph wires from Oshkosh to Milwaukee are faster than to me in Madison.

As to the festival resuming at 7:30 pm. Well, we won't let something damper our partying. As a matter of fact, the girl dying became the reason to party. It was a memorial service, impromptu wake, etc.
