Six Flags Injury Overview

When people visit theme parks, they expect to have a good time. Theme parks have an interest in keeping their visitors safe and happy, so they will return again and again. Unfortunately, sometimes, serious injuries occur at theme parks — including Six Flags. These injuries are very rare, but they do occur.

What are some examples of severe injuries that have occurred at Six Flags theme parks?

• In 2010, a young girl who was riding the Whirligig swinging ride fell from her swing and broke her arm. She was at a Six Flags in Fiesta, TX.
• In 2007, a 15 year-old girl had both of her feet amputated above the ankle while riding the Superman Tower of Power, a dropping ride located at a Six Flags in Kentucky. A cable snapped and somehow became entangled around her feet just before the ride dropped.
• In 2006, a woman claims that she was struck by an object while riding a 60-mph roller coaster at a Six Flags in Aurora, Ohio. Although the park knew visitors sometimes threw rocks at the roller coaster (there were rocks under the ride and on walkways), park officials did nothing to prevent the hazard. The woman suffered severe head injuries.
• In 2001, a young girl nearly drowned in a pool at a Six Flags in Ohio. Apparently, the girl was sucked into an underwater drain pipe. The grate covering the pipe was broken. The girl was underwater for four minutes before she was rescued.

For a theme park to be financially liable for an injury, they must be found negligent. This essentially means that they neglected to do something they should have done to keep you safe. Maybe the employees failed to inspect, maintain, or operate a roller coaster properly. Perhaps they failed to fix a known safety hazard. There are many ways a theme park could be found negligent for your injury.

Other common theme park injuries that could occur at Six Flags include slip, trip, or fall injuries. These injuries could occur due to hazardous walkways or stairs, or in an unsafe ride boarding area, or in a restaurant where employees fail to clean up spills. These types of injuries can occur almost anywhere within a theme park.
