It is so unfortunate when something of joy ends up very tragic. 58 year old Robert Sycamore took his nephew on a roller coaster ride and broke his neck while on it.
Right now he is being kept alive on a life support machine because the accident left him paralysed. He had taken his great nephew riding on the Grand National at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
Nobody knows what actually happened but Robert was found in the bottom of the carriage with his neck broken and the paramedics said it was unbelievable how he stayed alive in that condition.
The Grand National wooden roller coaster was first designed in 1935 and remains one of just three rides of its kind left in the world. It is a twin track ride which sees two trains 'compete' with each other on parallel 6,600ft tracks at speeds of up to 50mph.The ride is 62ft high and rides are usually for just two-and-a-half minutes.
