Translation fun

Located at 160km in the North-West of Los Angeles, the medium of the hills and of the ranches, "Neverland" resembles a park with topics with its manor, its zoo, its bumper cars, its horse-gear and its large wheel. Michael Jackson gave there many festivals for the children. AP

That is a quote from the a French Yahoo! news story translated into English.

What we in America know as Ferris Wheel is known to Frenchies as a "grand roue" but when it's translated it sounds like Michael Jackson purchased a large dump truck tire, laid it on the ground and started charging admission.
