Killed by the Bangee "Rapture"
OSHKOSH, Wisconsin (AP) -- A woman attending a Christian festival died Saturday after plunging about 45 feet from a bungee-like amusement ride.

Workers at the Lifest 2007 event shut down the Air Glory ride after the accident, which occurred about 4:45 p.m. A prayer service was held at 7 p.m. and the music festival resumed about 7:30 p.m.

The woman, whose name and age was not released by Oshkosk police, was pronounced dead at a local hospital several hours after the accident.

Lifest is an annual Christian music festival that also features rides and sports.

1. I wonder how they explain this...
Oh, she must have been a sinner. That's it.
