Hundreds of passers-by stopped to watch the rescue operation overhead as the cages were emptied one-by-one, with frightened passengers guided by rescuers onto two cherry-picker aerial platforms.

91-year-old grandmother trapped in muddy pool for 10 hours, Chongqing, China - 17 Apr 2010
91-YEAR-OLD TRAPPED IN MUDDY POOL FOR 10 HOURS
A 91-year-old grandmother got stuck in muddy pond for more than 10 hours until firefighters came and rescued her.
The woman in question, Mrs Wang, of Chongqing, slipped into the muddy pool and became trapped in the silt when she went out for a walk after dinner one evening and got lost.
She comments: "I followed a group of people and walked to this wild area and slipped into the pool. I cried for help but because of my weak voice they didn't hear it."
Wang was only discovered the next morning at 7am when a local resident named Mrs. Liu passed the pool and spotted her.
Mrs Liu comments: "I shouted at her, but she did not respond just looked at me tiredly."
She then called police who in turn informed the local fire brigade.
"When she saw us coming she struggled but got sucked deeper," said fire fighter Han Weike.
Fire fighters first tried to pull Mrs Wang out but due the super sticky nature of the mud they were unable to free her.
Their second idea was to shovel the silt away while draining the pool water. However this plan had to be scrapped because it would take too long.
"She was extremely tired and started to twitch," said Han.
Fire fighters finally used high pressure water torches to blow away the silt around Mrs Wang so that they could pull her out.
She was then sent to hospital for treatment and emerged relatively unscathed from her ordeal.
