Penang Cable Car Got Stuck Through Mid-Ride And Trapped 150 People In It

Many people have decided to spend some time with their loved ones during the weekend to help them release some stress that they have to face before. One of the most go-to destinations for a vacation would be Penang Hill that is located on Penang Island. Recently, this famous destination had to overcome some technical difficulties as the Penang cable car used for the visitors got stuck through mid-ride and has trapped 150 people inside of the cable car.

During this unfortunate accident that happens at Penang Hill, all the 150 passengers of this most famous Penang cable car have the opportunity to personally know how steep the track really is. This is because all of them have to walk off the train mid-ride so that they could go to a safer place as the cable car got stuck and could not be moved again until it will be fixed. Based on the posting that has been posted on Facebook, the Penang cable car train service has suffered some malfunction precisely at 2.33 pm on the 3rd of October 2020 with all 150 passengers inside it.

In this midst of hardship, thankfully our Malaysian heroes that is the firefighter involved actively to rescue all the visitors after they have received an emergency call from one of the passengers that also got stuck in the cable car. They immediately went there and successfully rescued all of the stranded passengers inside the cable car train. In the end, all 150 passengers that got stuck got saved without any injuries despite the bad trauma that they have to face.
