And for the seventy-eleventh time, a 2009 incident was NOT the cause of the Son of Beast removal.

Sigh.

good thing it wasn't the 88th time other wise we'd go back in time and have to relive every single one of them again...

The Dominator is at Kings Dominion.

[MantisMan]

The Dominator is at Kings Dominion.

I know that.

The question is.......does Tr0y??

[fanofFirehawk]

And the answer is….

No...

[Tr0y]

"the second b&m death to be at Kings Island" meaning the second death for b&m will be located at Kings Island. I was just at kings dominion last week, im back at Cedar Point today.

Don't have to look into the future, it would just explain why there is now a Banshee at Kings Island.

[fanofFirehawk]

Alrighty then.

Burn it, burn it with fire...

anyway.

Is everyone else just as confused with what seems to be Tr0y's logic as I am, or is it just me?

Did you watch the video interview about Banshee in the construction thread that I had with Don? He stated that there would have been a major coaster coming to KI in 2014 regardless of SOB's fate.

Wait Logic, that made me Crack up.

[razmataz99]

Wait, I thought there has never been a death on a B&M?

[Diamondbacker27]

Then what caused SOB to be torn down? I'm almost positive if it was still running Banshee would be in another location.

Diamondbacker27 who doesn't understand anything

[TheCrypt]

It still hasn't been confirmed the death was induced by the ride. The man could have had a preexisting condition.

[razmataz99]

What ride? Was it dominator? When?

razmataz99 being confused

[YoungStud]

A young girl lost her life on raging bull.

[fanofFirehawk]

*sarcasm*Raging bull ain't a B&M.*sarcasm*

[vortexfan]

Uhhhh, yeah it is.

[McSalsa]

About the Raging Bull death, from Wikipedia (not the best source, but it's all I could find ATM):

On May 3, 2003, an 11-year-old girl from Gary, Indiana collapsed after riding the Raging Bull coaster. She died after being taken to the hospital. While initial reports said that she died from choking on taffy she had been eating while on the ride, the coroner's report later stated that she died due to an "enlarged" heart condition, and had been seeing a cardiologist for treatment.

Sounds like something that wasn't a problem with the ride or anything though- any thrilling roller coaster, be it a B&M or anything else- could do this. (Moral of story: Do NOT ride roller coasters of any manufacturer if you know you have any sort of heart condition!)

PS: Sorry about the blue link text stuff. It appeared as I directly copied that part of this post from wikipedia.

^^: WHAT!?!? Raging Bull @ Six Flags Great America is a B&M!

Sarcasm doesn't really convey that well over the internet does, it.

hmmm, check it out now.

[razmataz99]

anyways that is not B&M's fault...

[Sonofbeast2.0]

I hope this ride will use fog machines, some lighting effects, and have some more creepy music playing throughout Queue. I also hope that their shall be tombstones to the left and right of queue and throughout the ride! I like the rendering of the station KI has on their website too!

I hope to see this level of theming (or more) on most new attractions CF adds! New dark ride for KI in foreseeable future ( announced in 2016 or 2017)?

[TheCrypt]

It's been noted fog machines, tombstones, and other "surprises" will come to fruition.

and it seems as if everyone forgot what a Banshee is. a Banshee appears before death, the coaster itself is a b&m so therefor the next death for b&m will be on Banshee. Son of Beast fate was decided back in 2009 after the incident it went SBNO it was the state inspected it and deemed operating normally that day so why close it? Nothing personal against Don but i don't believe everything he says. he's the PR manager, he's going to tell you what they want you to hear.

[TheCrypt]

I have lost all faith in humanity.

Banshee is a name and only a name. Troy, it's time you start treating it as such.

really? what explains all the criticism when the name was first to be used for what is now mantis? If we renamed meanstreak to spine buster do you think that more people will like it? If somebody dies on this coaster regardless if it was the rides fault or not there will be outcry because of the name.

[Jr for Birdy]

I heard the saying crying or screaming like a Banshee before, but before the Decoding thread I had no idea what a Banshee even was. I think your reading deeper into this than what the general public would. Nobody outside a few coaster enthusiasts are going to give a 'darn'.
