Ride Malfunctions at the Ohio State Fair (1 Dead and 6 Injured)

[FreedMind]

R.I.P. to the lives lost

I wasn't big on riding rollercoasters when I was a kid because of fear of heights. I rode a couple in my life but I remember being at Cedar Point as kid and riding on a rollercoaster with my dad and that shyt had my neck & back hurting.

After that I was

About two months ago I went to Great America, and it was actually hella cool, had a good time. I never liked rollercoasters, but I will get on them just so I won't have to be waiting for everyone else.

First ride I got on was called Medusa I think, was actually fun as hell, but my neck was hurting for the whole day, plus a few days after too.

Probably got lucky I didn't strain my shyt too bad seeing as how it was tweaked after the first ride that day.

i still would bet tht tha chances of a freak accident at a six flags are MUCH, MUCH lower than they are at a state fair.

Agreed still a risk though.

Anyone have any idea what happened in the video tho? Did a section of the seats just fly off, or did it hit something as it was swinging? I can't really tell.

RIP to the person that died tho smh.

It hit something on the ground from what I see.

Their legs. The people who went flying.

Nah, I'm good on rides

Never liked them anyways.

I actually hella fukk with that ride too. I might have to throw the towel in on amusement parks brehs.

Thats one of my fav rides too. I had to beg my brother to go on it with me one time. If he saw this, he'd never go on another ride with me again.

I also read some time ago traveling carnivals, fairs, etc have the most accidents and fatalities bc unlike places like Disney World, Six Flags, they dont really have regulations and/or engineers to check the equipment, etc. So you basically have your life in the hands of Becky Sue and Billy Bob.

The end with the people flying

Problem is them shyts don't even operate year round, plus they move.. and I'm supposed to trust them shyts to operate within the confines of one month

nah

Looks like it's supposed to swing back and forth, but got off the straight line and hit the fence. This is a weird phobia I have about swings too
