“The moment I fell forward, I was facing the floor,” Allie said.

“I thought I was going to die.”

Allie says her boyfriend held her in her seat until the ride stopped.

She reported the incident to the Royal Melbourne Show and took to Facebook last night to warn others.

In a statement The Royal Agricultural Society of Victoria said, “The Royal Melbourne Show has asked the relevant authorities to investigate Allie’s report involving the Skywalker ride. The ride remains closed.”
