Might explain some people pulling emergency cords etc. for no apparent reason.

Years ago, riding a pod on the cable car thing going up the mountain behind Queenstown, NZ, I noticed a small lever labelled “ventiataire” or something.. felt compelled to try it.. and it popped open the 2 halves of the pod.

Were there any warnings in any language? No. Stupid French/NZ pod.

Gosh!

That should have had a safety lock-out of some sort. As a minimum. Any safety system should have weeded that out long before the thing was open to the public.

Yes that sounds pretty ready for disaster
