KIBeast Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster-chickie Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WooferBearATL Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KIBeast Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
