Water-park mishap in Canada

[KIBeast]

This is absolutely horrible. Lately, it seems bad incidents are the order of the day when you consider the boy who died on Rock-n-Rollercoaster, the woman passing out on Mission:Space, the SOB incident...a horrible month.

Boy loses both legs

Wow, that's terrible! And I hadn't heard about the Mission: Space thing either...Why don't they just get rid of the thing? I know after all the stuff that's happened on it I sure wouldn't ride it

darn what is going on this year? Way to many bad things are happening. Even one at our park.

User error, the boy was warned, didn't listen, what else can you do.

Settle for hundreds of thousands of dollars and hope and pray that it does not go to suit.

Well most park accidents are riders fault. Not following posted saftey rules.

How can someone lose both of there legs on a water slide

They wont get rid of Mission Space. The thing costs between 40 to 140 million dollars.

Rollerzach, it was in a swimming pool, not on a slide.

Knoxville, yeah, the boy was warned, but, the cover for this intake pipe only was snapped on and not secured. Usually, an intake is not that close to a pool. It is more than a legs length from the pool. Most of the time, pumps and motors have a room to themselves a few feet from the pool.
