@Seagoon_ ICYMI, the 7:30 Report had a story about why Melbourne's Star Observation Wheel failed.

I mean, aside from the breathtaking views of Coode Island and the Docklands car parks, the fact it was barely ever working probably didn't help...

I worked right near it. I probably would have had a go, but it was stupidly expensive - something like $50 a ride. Maybe it wasn't that much ($50 might have been for two). But whatever it cost, it was far more than I was willing to pay.

I didn't watch the video, but I think your comments meant to say the views of the asshole of Melbourne?
