Line 7:
It should be noted that if a Ferris wheel ''did'' break off and roll away, it wouldn't get very far. The wheel itself isn't very structurally sound, and would collapse under its own weight.
{{examples
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
Line 56:
* In one of the "Chicken vs. Peter" fight scenes in ''[[Family Guy]]'', the thing with the Ferris wheel tearing free happens and they fight on it while it's rolling away.
* There was a mechanically failing Ferris wheel in the first episode of the ''[[Legion of Super Heroes (TV)|Legion of Super Heroes]]'' cartoon, "Man of Tomorrow." It made things pretty easy for the Legion when they needed to figure out who Superman was.
** Superman in his own [[Superman:
* An episode of ''[[My Life As a Teenage Robot (Animation)|My Life As a Teenage Robot]]'' has a Ferris wheel that does the break-loose-and-roll thing.
* ''[[Teen Titans (Animation)|Teen Titans]]'' had a subversion in the second season. Beast Boy and Terra were on a date, riding on the Ferris Wheel when Slade ambushed them. The ride never broke down, or suffered from structural failure during the entire fight... until earth-controlling Terra destroyed it on her own at the end, to escape from Slade.
