Rider traumatized after being stuck upside down on Oaks Park ride

I would be too. That's traumatizing.

[@jamielynn3603]

You can't be hung upside-down for an extended period of time. It puts to much pressure on the heart from other organs pushing down on it and the heart then can not pump enough blood to your extremities and organs it's a deadly situation and they are all very lucky to have been ok.

Oh my goodness. How horrific. Knowing you are stuck combined by the height of the ride is terrifying enough. Then to add in being upside down for half hour. The thought of the rides restraints malfunctioning at any moment. Then the blood rush to your head and general circulation, with pressure of the restraints pressing forcefully against your weight. Not your everyday job for the fire brigade.

[@Jcandy20012]

So sorry to hear this you should sue them your child deserves whatever she can get out of it she might need therapy and thats lots of money. After what she just went threw. Or health care she could have lost her life so thankful she is ok. But she should get what she deserves. Forget what all these other people say they did not have it happen to them.

[@Jcandy20012]

It makes me mad they should take more time to make sure rides are safe before letting people get on.

[@mdsreviewsandchitchat73]

I cant imagine being upside down that long especially that high up. Strain on heart. Blood falling to your hezd n face. Pressure on your shoulders n hips from gravity pushing you towards metal bars n fear of them braking n you crashing to your demise. That may not look scary to all you commentors but iif you lived it i promise itd be a different story. Yiu wouldnt be saying. WEEE THIS IS FUN! youd hear the screams n anxiety n fear would run high! I probably would have had a heart incident n massive headache as Pressure built up. I pray for healing to them all!

[@JoshuaDiGiacoma]

in all or at least some types of truck driving, drivers are supposed to do a pre-trip inspection of the truck before starting on the road. maybe the ride should be inspected before every run or like every 5-10 ride runs. or maybe every 10-30 or 60 minutes or something? but that would or might "slow down production" though.

[@11_credits]

An inspection w9uld have done nothing, also that is way to often

[@sjbenson5618]

[@WTFBUTWHY]

Same. Hate when my kids go on rides at the fair.

[@cesarsaladontop]

I personally would never trust any rides at a fair or anything like that. On the other hand, I don't think all rides should be labeled as scary or unsafe. Heck, I will ride scariest of the thrill rides as long as it is in a place I can trust. number say going down stairs is more lethal than these ride. These types of situations are very sad and I really glad they are still with us, but we need to realize that 99.99% of rides are reaaalllllyy safe.

I am definitely empathetic to the situation that these people had to endure. But this kid has definitely said all of the right things for a successful lawsuit. It's almost as if he has been coached.

Sue for negligence. If you get hurt and the machine operates properly, you cannot sue. If the machine malfunctions causing any kind of trauma, they can sue. Someone went to the hospital, the amusement park should have to pay for it

[@Hecto356]

@@saiyansatan I agree the park should pay for anyone who sustained any sort of injuries or upcoming short term or long term health issues but everyone got off the ride safely. The most compensation they’re going to get is a free pass for a year or a full refund. I’d say the best compensation for being stuck on a ride upside for 25 mins is a full refund and the fact that you’re still alive. The best compensation should come from the experience itself and not some payout that will only make you feel better for a limited amount of time.
