In the video obtained by CP24, paramedics can be seen tending to the man before he was rushed to hospital. In the footage, one of the paramedics appears to be bracing the man’s neck as he lay on his back beside the ride.

The CNE and ride operator North American Midway Entertainment (NAME) said Tuesday that the Polar Express ride will remain shut down pending an investigation into the incident. 

“Safety is a top priority for the CNE, and the Polar Express will remain closed until the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) and our third-party consultants can ensure the ride was not compromised,” a statement issued on Tuesday morning reads.
