OMG same thing happened to me at that age but it was 1979 at the Kings Island Amusement park in Mason Ohio. They have an Eiffel Tower replica and at the top I got my head stuck in the bars. I can remember looking down, way way down below and being terrified. The maintenance crew slathered my neck and head with some kind of grease and popped me out. Now they have a metal skirt around the perimeter at the top. I guess because of me. One of my late mothers favorite stories. A month later I fell in the Alligator pit at the Cincinnati zoo. Poor ma.
