I rode on it in 1988! So tragic.
This gives a good description of how it happened.
Horrible. Heart goes out to the family…
The kids had to watch their mother die.
I really feel for the 12 year old girl. That will never, ever leave her. I hope she finds the considerable strength through her formative years to not let this weight her down too much eventually in her life.
Legit shook that it was that ride, that said, it's so old and rickety if it was built today it would probably be much safer.I just assumed initially that it was the Buzz Saw because it’s in the same area. Couldn’t actually believe it was one of the family friendly rides.
i thought it was the buzz saw ride too at first
