Irving residents William Mancera and Thalia Rodriguez were not injured during their Monday ordeal. Dallas firefighters eventually used an aerial ladder truck to help get the couple safely to the ground. Mancera tells KXAS-TV that his fear of heights “won again” and he is “never riding anything of that sort ever again.” But he also says the ordeal has brought him and his fiancee closer together. They plan to marry in February. The ride remains closed as the company that operates it investigates why the malfunction happened.
