The ropeway breakdown occurred in the afternoon, during a period of high tourist traffic.
According to the description of the tourists and staff at the scene, the meteorological conditions in the Huashan area were complicated that day, and thunder and lightning broke out.
In order to ensure the safety of tourists, the management department of the scenic spot decided to urgently cut off the power supply of the ropeway and implement lightning protection measures.

Although this decision guarantees the safety of tourists,
But it also caused some tourists to be trapped in the ropeway carriage for more than an hour.

The ropeway system has been thoroughly inspected and maintained to ensure its safety.
Netizen: What should I do if I fall in mid-air and am struck by lightning
The stationary ropeway carriage is a Faraday cage, and the people in the carriage who are struck by lightning will not be electrified.
However, if the electrical equipment is struck by lightning and catches fire during the operation of the ropeway, it may cause the carriage to fall.
Netizen: Is this a normal situation?
Netizen: It's normal
Netizen: Is it still open during thunderstorms?
Netizen: Hanging in the air to cross the catastrophe

Personal opinion
"Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and affectionate", but if this goose feather is replaced by a sudden thunderbolt,
Hanging in the air, the tourists are afraid to just say, "Can we have a good one?"

Recently, the Huashan Cableway has been suspended due to lightning failure.
Let a group of tourists experience a "walk in the clouds",
This kind of walk is not necessarily poetic, but it is quite thrilling.

Huashan is known for its risk, and now it seems that this risk is not only rugged mountain roads.
Even the ropeway up the mountain has to add a bit of "excitement".
On April 22, a thunderstorm made the West Peak Cableway of Huashan "retreat bravely".
Because of "lightning protection", the pause button was urgently pressed.

Although the staff said it was for safety,
But tourists trapped in mid-air may feel a chuckle in their hearts, after all, it is not only the body that hangs in the air, but also the heart.
Ropeway Failure: "Still Painting" in Mid-Air
Imagine being tens of meters above the ground in the air,
Sudden power outage, wind and thunder all around,
The ropeway carriage sways around...... It's too beautiful for me to look at.

Fortunately, in this case, the emergency measures of Huashan Scenic Area are in place.
didn't let "Mid-Air Horror" become a "top jump".

This kind of forced tranquility makes people feel like "this light in the wind and rain,
You're the only one who shines", but you may wish the light was lit sooner.
Write at the end
This episode of Huashan Cableway undoubtedly gave tourists an unforgettable experience,
It also gives managers a chance to reflect.

In the days to come, perhaps in addition to improving hardware facilities,
You can also put more effort into the emergency plan, after all, every "crisis" is a good time to test the service.

And for us ordinary tourists, we may also have to learn to be fully prepared when visiting the mountains and rivers.
Because "the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings", it is always good to be prepared.
In short, in a word, "it's not cold in high places", but as long as there is enough preparation and security,
A trip to Huashan can still be a beautiful scenery.
