Elessar Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 You guys definitely are being a bit harsh. Sure the guy is an idiot IF you assume he's your age, or perhaps a teenager. But what if it was a young kid, like 5-9 years old? There's a big diff Not really. There was a fence, it had a warning sign. They ignored both of these warnings. I don't care if they were 5 or 17, they deserved what they got. I'm tired of kids these days and how stupid/naive they are. Natural selection is starting to make a comeback, even with warning labels :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbosdell Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 You guys definitely are being a bit harsh. Sure the guy is an idiot IF you assume he's your age, or perhaps a teenager. But what if it was a young kid, like 5-9 years old? There's a big diff If you go to Google News and look through the articles there one of them says his age: 17. So someone who might be graduated from high school and is only a year younger than myself decided to do something that stupid? If he was 12 I would feel bad for him but at 17 even 13 he should have known better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogan Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Here's a video of the Batman ride: So he gets under them, trying to grab someones legs and the ride hits him so hard that he gets decapitated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnzoFX Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Fine, he's 17. I'd still feel very sorry for the kid if he were 5. A 5 year old's safety would rely on whoever should be watching him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was ****ing 17 years old, if he don't know how dangerous that **** was then he had some mental problem. Could be retardation because not one at 17 years old could do something so stupid like that, if he was 10 years old then we are talking about a kid, not an adult teen.

Eric Veteran Posted June 28, 2008 Veteran Share Posted June 28, 2008 I wish I were there so I could have looked at his friends and said, "owned" Would you? Have you ever seen someone get killed in person, much less decapitated? I think you would be too busy being in shock, (and probably vomiting,) to say a damned thing. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macrosslover Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 11alive.com has a bit more info on their site, I'll quote "According to the representatives at Six Flags, a 17-year old teenage boy jumped over two-six-feet tall fences into the ride area. Some witnesses told police that the teen was trying to retrieve an item he lost during the ride. Others, told authorities that the teen wanted to touch the ride." 11alive that pretty much ends a chance of a lawsuit IMO, whether he left something there or did it as prank, he had to make an effort to get to that area, he jumped 2 fences so it wasn't an accident on his part, it was intent. stupid or not I am sad the guy lost his life, but if his parent wanted to sue anybody, they should sue the church group for failing to properly supervise the group.
