Evil Ferris Wheel Attacks "Hannah Montana"

Miley CyrusThe new Hannah Montana movie suddenly became an action flick when a freak ferris wheel accident on the set left several extras in bad shape.

According to witnesses on the set, all hell broke loose when high winds blew a giant piece of lighting equipment into a ferris wheel full of people on the Tennessee movie set. Miley Cyrus -- the star of the film, for all you out of touch people -- had just wrapped a scene on the stage next to the ferris wheel when the accident occurred.

We're told the collision caused a few cables on the ferris wheel to go haywire, striking several of the people on the ride. Medics on the scene quickly took the injured people to a local hospital -- where they received treatment for minor injuries.

UPDATE: A Disney spokesperson tells TMZ, "During a break in the filming of 'Hannah Montana: The Movie,' a minor accident occurred involving a piece of production equipment. Fortunately, there were only a few minor injuries. Medical personnel have treated the extras and crew involved. None of the cast was on the set. Filming has resumed."

32. It was crazy. I was by the ferris wheel and my daughters head was caught by the rope trying to control the lighting prop. Why were they trying to put the prop up when there was 1500 people crammed in a small area. I saw children being knocked over while a man was holding the rope and being drug. The lighting prop is what hit the ferris wheel that caused the damage!!! Granted it was a act of nature. A gust of wind got under the prop and it was totally out of control. Knocked my hat off and if not for me paying attention, the rope they were holding would of choked my 12 year old daughter. And then sat for 5 more hous in the HOT sun. I could not sleep last night due to reliving the experience in my head and hearing the terrified screams of children and adults.

40. Me and my children were actors on the set. We witnessed the freak accident from beginning to the end and it was terrifiying. The one thing we and the other actors couldn't understand is why they moved this 2-story piece of equiptment WHILE all the extras and 100's of volunteers were ON the set. Hasn't Disney produced enough movies to remember to move the people off the set while moving large pieces of equiptment, especially those hanging from cranes? We witnessed the staff scrambling to get control of the situation and the hanging harnesses but to no avail. Then it was on with the show..oh..sorry we all got a bottled water for them putting us in a dangerous situation. THANKS!!!
