Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car due to mechanical failure had to suspend service for two months.  Nick Cheung Ka Fai last year risked his life last year on the Ngong Ping 360 for his new film NIGHTFALL (DAI JUI BO).  He deliberately violated rules in the clear cable cars as he jumped and opened fire as he tested the cable car safety limits.  His mad behavior scared Simon Yam Tat Wa so much that he almost succumbed to motion sickness.  Even the passengers in the opposite cable car were frightening to see their dangerous performance as they all stood up to see what was happening.

In the film Yam Tat Wa led his fellow police in pursuit of the mad criminal Cheung Ka Fai.  They began a cable car chase and even fought inside one.  On the first ride on the cable car Cheung Ka Fai and Yam Tat Wa described the feeling as fresh, but Brother Wa had a little fear of heights.  Thus on the cable car round trip shoot he felt a little dizzy.  On the other hand Ka Fai faced off with Brother Wa in the cable car and daringly jumped inside the cable car without any fear.  Although dangerous stunts were prohibited inside the car, due to the story Ka Fai was under the director's order to violate the rules.  Ka Fai said that actually he did not feel much, he only knew that he had to complete this scene.
