SANTA MONICA, CA – MAY 28: The new $1.5 million solar powered Ferris wheel, which replaces the Pacific Wheel Ferris wheel auctioned off on eBay for $132,400 in April, stands over Pacific Park amusement park on the Santa Monica Pier on its opening night on May 28, 2008 in Santa Monica, California. The old 90-foot tall Pacific Wheel Ferris wheel appeared in 105 photo shoots, 71 television commercials, 69 television shows, 28 films and 13 music videos and carried more than 3 million riders130 feet above the ocean on its 20 gondolas over the past 12 years. Like its predecessor, the world’s first solar-powered, it will be powered by the sun but the new wheel, with its160,000 lights, will be 75 percent more energy efficient.

Now we all know when you're alone with the one you love on a Ferris Wheel, some thigh holding or kissing may happen. Well this couple took it all the way past third base! Witnesses said they could feel their cards moving and that the couple even *ahem* exposed themselves. The ride reaches about 145 feet high and around 10pm, officials said they abruptly stopped the ride because of complaints.
The couple was met by police and told them originally she was wearing shorts under her dress and that she dropped a pack of cigarettes, and he was helping her pick it up. Later the couple admitted to having sex on the ride.
The couple were arrested and are being charged with a first-degree misdemeanor because they were "engaging" in their activity in front of minors.
