A 24-year-old woman,  and a 20-year-old woman, were seriously injured after being thrown from a swing chair at a funfair in Firminy, near Saint-Étienne, France on Oct. 14, according to Daily Mail and RTE. Both women were over 33 feet in the air in one of several pods spinning around a central mast when their chair was released.  Strong winds were reported at the time the pod fell according to both sources.

The 24-year-old woman had already died by the time the rescue team arrived. The other woman riding with her was taken to a hospital.
