I love that the same people using AI saying it’s great are the same people who are making AI really unfavorable to the public. It seems by spreading misinformation and seemingly forcing it on all tech and video game companies.

Oh I remember reading about this accident. The double amputee was a prideful war veteran who was stubborn as hell. According to what I read, the ride operators initially refused him, but the war vet demanded he be let on threatening to sue the park for discrimination if they didn't let him ride. The operators tried their best to explain that for his own safety he couldn't ride, but the man just would not listen to reason and once again threatened a lawsuit. Eventually, they gave into the war vet's demands and let him on; which they obviously should not have done. They should have realized the man's threats were meaningless. There was no way he could have sued the park for discrimination much less win since the only reason they didn't want him on was for his own safety. People can be so stubborn sometimes. Still it is sad that he died this way. Just imagine surviving losing your legs due to stepping on a landmine only to lose your life many years later to a rollercoaster of all things.

1300 out of 1.6 Billion rides is an rather low distribution. That’s (if I did the math correctly) 0.00008% chance of being injured, and of that 118 out of that 1300 were serious. Whoever is speaking in the first part of the video ought to be ashamed of themselves for misrepresenting data so egregiously. They probably aren’t, but they should be.

I watch a lot of Mentour Pilot videos on air accidents, and one of the most common factors in pilot-caused incidents is when the pilots have a mental model of what's going on that doesn't match reality, and they're stuck reacting to the incorrect mental model and unable to understand what's actually going on. I feel like something similar happened here. The idea of a guest sitting on top of a locked belt was so far removed from the mental model the operators had that they couldn't even try to check for that or see any of the hints pointing towards that as the problem. Idk, I still feel like asking the guest to vacate the seat for a more thorough check would have been an obvious step, but if youre poorly trained and faced with the growing agitation of delayed riders, the pressure to get things moving would be pretty high and distracting.

Permanent Amusement rides in most of the western world meet or exceed *very* stringent standards nowadays. It did, unfortunately, require people being injured or killed to form those standards. I feel reasonably safe riding rides at most permanent amusement parks (excluding traveling fairs, carnivals, etc. even in the US, some of those guys are fly-by-night)

Every slide component should be numbered, photographed, condition annotated and tracked for changes and needed maintenance. A safe park doesn't rely only on liability waivers and cursory visual inspection by unqualified summer hires.

I like to sometimes make the joke when arriving at an airport, amusement park or boat ride with my wife, who is often nervous about these things, that: "Whew! We made it past the dangerous bit!" There are over 1 million road accident injuries a year, globally. If you google "roller coaster injuries globally" and add up every single publicly released statistic you can find on the first 10 pages, multiply that by 100, and then add the total population of Tonga for fun, you still get less injuries than ONE YEAR of people driving cars. I saw an American statistic that said about 1.3 per 1 million injuries to rides ratio. That means if the entire population of the WORLD took one ride each in the USA, only 8,000 people would even be injured! And most of those would be either rider fault or rider previous injury/condition!

I was at Dixie Landing the day before the accident occured. There was one particular train/car on the Xtreme that the rides ops were having to go under the ride to unlock the restraints when unloading... My gf and I refused to ride in that car. Im not 100% sure thats what caused the accident. But I'm willing to put money on that it had something to do with it.

@sidvernon63432 күн бұрын
What happens is due to the uncontrolled spinning and random weight distribution, all wheels (road/running and guide) wear differently. The unload position has a fixed bar, and a wheel/lever system on the vehicle that rides along that bar and unlocks the restraints. Sometimes the trains don’t get the momentum from the previous drive motor to push the vehicle all the way onto the drive motor at unload and that wheel onto the restraint release bar. Since the vehicles’s wheels wear uniquely, adjusting the speed of some of the drive motors will work for some vehicles and not others. That results in having to manually unlock the restraints.

@sidvernon6343 That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for clearing that up. I just found it very odd that we saw that happening, and the next day, the unfortunate incident happened.

I was briefly a ref at a paintball field and I liked to point out that paintball was considered one of the most dangerous extreme sports, with something like 95% of those injuries being from people slipping and falling on rough terrain and the remainder being people who weren't following safety protocol. The bottom line is that you need to be aware of the situation and you need to follow the safety rules given to you. As long as you do that, things will be fine.
