So a boy gut struck by a girls foot?This reminds me of an similar accident on Top Gun:The Jet Coaster

[hyyyper]

i believe the foot of a girl on the ride hit someone who was walking below the loop of katun

[Real]

He went into a restricted area for his hat and died. Left a future wife.

 

I have no sympathy for him but Im very saddened for his fiance. Thats very, very stupid. All over a hat.

[Homer]

Just like the Top Gun accident at Great America years back. Man goes into fenced off area, tries to retrieve his wife's hat, bam.

 

And people, if its fenced off, don't go in there! I feel sorry for the widow, but the guy should at least have some common sense.

I hate when this happens. People hear about these accidents and take them the wrong way. They think its the rides fault and not the person. Is there any news on the girl that hit him.

[PKI Jizzman]

Yikes, what a stupid mistake can do. The other day I caught a woman trying to hop a fence to get her hat back because she lost it on Delirium. I'm not sure if it was a dangerous area, but if she asked first, someone could have easily retrieved it with no problems.

Man I can't imagine what that girl must be going through! Can you imagine how you would feel if you accidently killed someone?!

[Ed]

^ It's not exactly her fault...

 

What kind of douche is that attached to a hat anyway!

[BrownStreak]

^I know it was not her fault- but if I was on a coaster and I kicked someone in the head...well I don't know how I would react. That was what I meant by "accidental."

[hemmy]

*Nevermind*

[Shockwave]

Well it's not the first time this sort of thing has happened. Tragic as it is, you have to question the judgement of someone going into a restricted area where a ride is operating.

You have got to be kidding me.

 

How is it not the guys fault to go in a restricted area without permission unknowingly of staff to get his hat

[EmBy]

He must have got really close to underneath the track for this to happen. Imagine risking your life for a stupid hat.

 

Could have ended up with the girl breaking her leg too.

I think that what he is saying is that when the public and non coaster enthusiast just hear about things like this, people who dies or gets serious injuries on a ride, they thinks that there has been something wrong with the ride which then caused an accident, which then leads to people being scared of going on a ride.

[Xtremecoaster]

That guy was just stupid that he walked in to an restricted area!Can`t he read the signs?They say KEEP OUT!

[easytoremember]

This also happened at SFOG on B:TR. An employee got struck by a guests foot. He was in an area he shouldn't have been in too.

Yes I misread it, my mistake.

I doubt he didn't know what he was getting himself into. He probably just figured he could beat the train or see it coming. Apparently not.

[XII]

This is literally a repeat of the Top Gun accident. Both times, It was a stupid man entering a restricted area for a freaking hat.

[Alpenguy]

I haven't been to the park, but judging from pictures it seems like the base of the drop and loop are pretty close to a walkway and park areas, or at least closer than Top Gun's which is way back behind two fences and quite far from guest areas. Anyone who's been there able to describe just how hard it would've been to get to this area?

[Hobbesx2]

God, why are people so stupid? I mean come on, how stupid can you get?!?

 

Katun better stay open. It wasn't anyone's fault but the stupid persons.

[Loco]

The area is gated for a reason!

You would think people are smart enough not to go in there. Even if they do, like hello...there is a freakin' 65 MPH coaster heading your way! It's common sense!

[Tmcdllr]

The bad thing is it doesn`t matter how fenced in something like that is there will always be stupid people that have no common sense that will cause stuff like this to happen. It`s sad, unfortunate, and stupid.

[RollerC]

The thing with B&M's is that their either silent or loud. I mean, there are times when I would be walking past Domintor and it would come flying through the overbank and I didn't even know it was near it.

[MidtownCoaster]

It's really tragic that it takes these brutal reminders that RULES ARE THERE FOR A REASON! The invincibility factor of people never ceases to amaze me (and, it never ceases, period). My sympathies to his fiance and to the young lady on the train.
