Glass (2019)

Corrected entry: During a flashback to explain his disability, a young Mr. Glass is seen being flung right and left on a Tilt A Whirl, crushing his fragile bones. In reality, a Tilt A Whirl keeps you in place through centrifugal force. A more accurate depiction of side to side chaos would be on a Troika or Scrambler ride, which is what I think the director meant to show instead.

Correction: This is absolutely not true. Because each car spins independently of the main "disc", you can absolutely be tossed from side to side. Having been on this ride many, many times, I can vouch for that.
