Malfunctioning wave machine injures 44 at Chinese water park
 By Brie Stimson | Fox News

A malfunctioning wave machine injured 44 people at a water park in northeastern China Sunday.

Instead of a gentle wave, the machine for a "tsunami pool" at Shuiyun Water Park in Longjing, China, generated one that hurtled swimmers into each other and out of the pool.

“According to the initial stages of the investigation, the incident was caused by a power cut that damaged electronic equipment in the tsunami pool control room, which led to the waves in the tsunami pool becoming too big and injuring people,” a statement from the Longjing city government said, according to the South China Morning Post.

See at link video, honestly, the wave machine caused a huge, huge wave to hit the water park. I'm glad that the injuries do not sound too serious.
