Default Found dead on rollercoaster

I was out over in Blackpool pleasure beach the week end when I heard the bobsleigh fell off the track (no injuries) it was not reopened. On my 'lunchbreak' I found out an 11 year old fell out of space invader and got ripped open in 2000. Does anyone know if theres anymore? Alt towers, drayton, euro disney, florida?
Its horrificly intresting

he didnt get 'ripped open' he just fell from high up and died, i remember a 16 year old girl died from a log flume type ride in wales she just fell from the top like the boy on space invader. i think somebody died at one of the ug land rides in alton towers, a man got run over by one of the rides at camelot and died, there have been loads of theme park deaths, mainly in america though

i didnt see it fall off, it was the rumour for closing, it didnt have enough speed i guess and then just stopped, it didnt actually fall on to the floor, so the boy in space invader just fell from the ride and landed on the floor? thats pretty horrible.. imagine finding him

theres a ride in euro disney i just found out, which is an island and two dumbass kids got of the ride and hid, not realisung they would never get back from off the island haha, they tried to swim back but one of them drown.

OMG how creepy if you was working on that space invader and you saw the kid get on the ride but then when it came back there was nobody on it! ahhhh ive been on it (after the kid died) and i queued for like and hour and a half and i was like omg this is gonna be brill because the queue was so big but it was actually pretty ****. you have one of those things that comes over your shoulders to keep you in, i dont know what they are called lol, and somebody told me that before the kid died there was only like a metal bar to keep you in that you could lift up yourself and he lifted the bar and tried to stand up thats why he died

i think the worst story i heard is the batman ride at six flags in america, some kid dropped his hat in a restricted area and he jumped a barrier to get the hat but the ride came back and actually chopped his head off it sounds far-fetched but its actually true! google it

My dad went on a ride back in the day, don't ask me what or where I forgot now, but it broke down whilst they were upside down and they were stuck like that for a good 20 minutes or so and they all thought they were going to die from blood rushing to their head, pretty scary stuff... Apparently it happened again last year or 2008, on the exact same ride and the same position and stuff. :s
Does anyone know which I'm talking about?

I remember i was scared to get on rollercoasters then i got on one and loved it! so i went on another and this was a wooden one, it was terrifying then i get to the bottom and the other coaster that goes round was broken, the front of it was smashed,

Never got on one since.

There have been loads of deaths at Disneyland parks, some of them were accidential but a lot were down to the rides. Makes me sort of scared because I'm going to the one in Florida next month but I always belive you have to live life in the fast lane.

Some of these rumours may have come from these incidents and this one recorded on Snopes

However not all of these stories are true, see here for a more exhaustive list

the last one that springs to my mind was a 17 year old that was killed at a theme park in atlanta a couple of years ago he rode a batman rollercoaster that opened amongst loads of hype and he lost his baseball cap so he climbed over the fence to get it back and was decapitated by the ride on its way round the track again.
