They're there one second and gone the next and you sit there with a shocked look on yer face. Been there, done that, got no t-shirt.

My heart goes out to her.

That is just awful!!!!! Those rides scare me every time my son goes to a park.

I went on a ride like this once and I'll never do it again. I just don't like that straight down free fall feeling. I feel horrible for this girl. Can anyone say lawsuit?

As bad as this is, those rides are still very safe. Your son is in more danger riding in a car to the park then getting hurt at the park.

Easy Danny, can't be placated that easy!

OK, are we all clear to start the puns now?

I hope that whatever settlement she gets out of this really gives her a leg up on life.

Ban this man. I think this is one where we never start with the puns. Puns are reserved fro someone who does something stupid and gets injured.
