In what could be considered the fair of terror, one person died and seven others were injured last night when one of the mechanical games failed, unleashing terror among the audience.

CNN reported that the failure occurred at the attraction called Fireball, which has at least six rows of seats that revolve around the entire structure, swinging like a pendulum.

In a video that has been posted on the Internet, you can see how the mechanical game is rocking and when it descends, one of the rows of seats surprisingly collides with what appears to be a retaining wall. With the shuddering sound that row of seats falls to the floor while another person falls from above.

The appalling incident cost an 18-year-old young man his life, left three more people in serious condition, while three others suffered less serious injuries.

The accident happened on the day of the opening of the fair that immediately announced that it would close the other attractions until they are inspected again.

“Our hearts go out to the families of those involved in last night's tragic accident. We have closed all attractions until the state has inspected each and every one of them again and deems them safe, the fair's directors said in a statement.

Ohio Governor John Kasich also also sent his condolences.
