Yet we probably have hundreds of thousands of people who drink and drive, and yet they never pay as serious a price for their actions as this kid/guy did, yet they put the lives of others in jeopardy. Do you feel the same way for all these people? That you question what was going on in their head when they knew they'd get drunk, yet chose not to stop and make sure they didn't have their keys? I never see those people nominated for the Darwin Award that people on Neowin seem so happy to give out. Is it because it's more socially acceptable? Because it isn't as dumb in some form (when it clearly is)?

Sorry, but at the end of the day, this is just a mistake -- stupid decision, however you want to phrase it. A big mistake, but a mistake none the less.

I disagree with the mistake bit. And I'd also like to point out that nobody drinking with me drives afterwards. I see to that. If someone drinks and drives and ****s themself up, they had it coming and I can't be bothered to feel too badly for them - it's not acceptable and is completely stupid and isn't a mistake you make if you choose to do it. You seem to be making some wild assumptions about myself, or else I just don't get your point and how it relates to this story.

Common sense gets kick of out the door here, yet again. Sigh, nothing to see here folks.

Nice to see the caring church leaders stopped that one...

That kind of comment is sickening. Because the teens were old enough to enjoy the park on their own without constant supervision you are now blaming the church leaders for this mishap? Shame on you.

I'm actually pretty disappointed at the number of people saying "serves him right/darwin wins again etc. etc." Yes, it was a bad idea; yes, it was stupid. But did he deserve to be decapitated?!

Have you never done something stupid? 17 year olds do stupid **** all the time ya know... :/

It was a church group. They probably didn't allow science.

i love your attitude and sarcasm here. you clearly are out of touch with reality.

i also find it funny that no one really cares if people lol'd and praised your foolish comments, but if it was the exact same tone of sarcasm and idiocy about the fallacy that is evolution, people would have gotten warned and banned if they laughed at it. i just love the neomodern "openness" attitude that people have which actually just uses sarcasm and idiocy to degrade people who believe higher things. it's become ridiculous over the last several years. way to go guys

I'd feel bad for my friends' parents/family, but if a friend of mine did something as dumb as what happened at the amusement park, then they had it coming.

So say your brother did this (hypothetically - so don't say he wouldn't or you don't have one), you would just say "served him right" ? Nice...

Funny how most replies go along the lines of "serves him right!". FFS it's an amusement park and the victim's a teen. That fence is a vertical pile of fail, not tall enough without barbed wire on top.

We've all been teens once. You'd be ****ting me if you were to say that most teens you've knew and seen were mature and followed rules and the law from A to Z and etc, yeah ****in right :rofl:

I'm not defending the dude. He was clearly stupid to go in a dangerous zone, but does that warrant one's death? It's not like it was an adult who can think twice before doing something, it was a teen. Yeah some of us were mature in those ages too, but again it would be a blatant lie to say that most teens are. Just remember your high school years.

Wow. You just disproved science. McCain for President y'all.

Ok first off it is kind of funny it happened to someone part of a church group. Only because they consider themselves holy and nothing bad can happen to them. 2nd Have any of you actually watched some of those real decapitation videos? Well I have and the fact that what happened to him happened that quickly, its all good.

I do remember more than one death in my high school years, mostly car accidents on grad night and drug overdoses.. Stuff like this was pretty rare, so was skiing out of bounds (come to think of it there was no out of bounds back then, everyone knew that if you skied down the wrong side of a mountain you were probably gonna die)

It's a shame to see someones life reduced to a warning for his friends, but it seems this was his legacy..

So did the ride knock his head off or did the persons foot.

Now thats a story to tell....one time I kicked a persons head off with my foot.

Imagine the friends with him reacation.

Since the story said no one else was hurt, I'm betting the ride did the deed.... A neck is way tough compared to a foot/ ankle/ leg..

The story would have read "Roller coaster rider loses foot on pranksters head"

    • Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers have two more games they can add to their library without needing to open their wallets, as the Epic Games Store's freebie offer has just refreshed. That means last week's Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King offer has been replaced by two new games, which happen to be Robobeat and Citizen Sleeper copies. From the duo, Robobeat lands from developer Simon Fredholm, offering a rhythm-based action game. Released only last year, the title puts you into the shoes of Ace, a bounty hunter that's targeting the robot showman Frazzer. The fast-paced title offers movement techniques like wall-running, sliding, and bunny hopping to zoom around while shooting enemies, but the requirement is doing everything to the beat. Outside of built-in tracks, the title also lets players upload their own music to populate its levels too. Next, Citizen Sleeper lands from Jump Over The Age, a sci-fi RPG adventure taking place in a ruined space station where thousands of people are trying to survive. The tabletop RPG-inspired title uses things like dice and clocks to change how the player approaches situations and survives their day-to-day lives. There is a large range of characters to meet with in the station, each with their own storylines and alliances. "You are a sleeper, a digitised human consciousness in an artificial body, owned by a corporation that wants you back," says the developer about the setting. "Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colourful inhabitants of the Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle." The Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take its place on the same day. They are supposed to be copies of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

      The Online part hasn't even been announced and probably won't be included on day one. This is a massive singleplayer game.

      While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
