14-Year-Old Dies after Falling from Orlando ‘Free Fall’ Ride
- Thread starter TFSF
- Start date
Holy shit! Bet he didn't suffer, at least. Fuck.
Why didn't he start screaming like a banshee once he felt he was not properly strapped in? He even told his buds to speak to his parents if he died on the ride? Sorry for him, but something is missing?
The vaccines got another…
So you want all “rude” people to die and make light of a 14-year olds death.
As I stated previously, you’re a lib troll and I stand by that comment.
The sound affects are gnarly!

Was that a person of colour that died?
Awful

My Observations:
For interests sake - it does appear that the stature of this young mans body was in fact too large looking at the still image I took from online video.
Whilst others are content to grasp the bars of what I think is referred to as the seat belt? ... the young man in question seem to be grappling with the lower part of in constraints/seatbelt?
It may not be obvious at first to those responsible for the ride, however I'll time stamp where suddenly AS the ride lifts off ... where then attendants cry out to the boy on the left (as the boy is on the left from where the audio/dialogue is coming from) "Hey you check the seat belt on the left side - Seat Belt - Seat Belt!
→ TIME STAMP ←
Note/Fact* At this point the the attendants are aware of a rider who is not strapped in. The ride continues to climb and is not stopped.
RIP

I don’t see color. But if he was expect his dad to circle back to being a part of his life after this lawsuit

Let’s hope! No reason for two people of colour to be behind because of a white person’s screw up.

I don't think there were seat belts on this ride. The girl at the beginning of the video asks the worker why there isn't.My Observations:

In this case I don't think it was like that but understand the concern.

Man that is awful. Reminds
ME Of that slide in Ohio where the kid got decapitated about 5 years ago.
Wonder if that ride will ever see the light of day again?

It’s the red thing. I thought somebody might die on the blue spinning swing thing. Can’t imagine why anybody would ride it.

Nope. I think they 86ed that thing. If I'm not mistaken it was in Kansas city, made by a German guy, and the kid was a state reps son or something like that. The explanation was absolutely ridiculous, like the seatbelts were velcroed or some shit like that.

Here's the story. Before they opened the ride there was footage of test runs with sandbags where the rafts went over a hump and launched way off the slide.

You couldn't pay me to go on that swing. I dunno about that one but the one in des Moines looks like the chains are the equivalent to a dog chain in the back yard.. the whoore went on it. Nope, fuck that, not me. I did the space shot and coasters, but not that thing.Sad. They just finished building this thing. It was under construction last time I was out that way a couple months ago. I hate going on the Orlando eye there but my kids always want to go. I think I’m done riding rides there.

Racist.
No. I think he was Black.

So he was a person of colour?
He’s dead. I doubt his being Black is a factor in any way.

It will be a factor in the damages his family receives since that privileged white ass hole decided not to check his restraints properly because he was a person of colour.
I heard that the chain checker was a good boy who wouldn’t hurt a fly. He
was getting ready to start college.

You can see the white person in the video. This is open and shut case of racism and potentially even manslaughter.
He is a good boy.

Stop with the gaslighting. We can see that he is white on the film.
He is getting his life together. He is going to start college soon.
