The attraction towers high above the market stalls on Wednesday morning. Last Monday was the last day of the Hilversum fair. The Kermis public has given way to the market audience.
Last Monday it went wrong during the Hilversum fair. A 14-year-old girl fell out of the attraction. She broke at the fall hair. Multiple emergency services and a trauma helicopter were used. Part of the fair was dropped off for this and the Energizer was locked.
Research still in full swing
The NVWA (Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety) started right an investigation into the cause of the accident. This research is still in full swing, a spokesperson told NH. Whether the attraction will be removed after completion of the investigation is unclear.
Whether the cause of the accident will ever be known to the public remains unclear. The NVWA only shares the result of the research with the operator. According to the spokesperson, that has to do with privacy.
The municipality of Hilversum indicates that she also does not know when the Energizer will disappear from Markplein. According to the spokesperson, they are about this in consultation with the NVWA.
