In a move that makes me angry at the world, some witnesses to the Melbourne Show coaster v's pedestrian incident of a couple of years back are trying to sue for the trauma. For some reason they are suing the operator rather than the person who climbed into the ride are to retrieve their property and inevitably got struck by the train.

Unfortunately the way society is now, if you're killed or injured doing something idiotic someone else is invariably at fault for not telling you to not be an idiot.

I'm not sure when it became the responsibility of organisations to educate people in basic common sense, I thought this was something parents were supposed to do.
 
Omg

It’s a genuine incident that happened at the Castles N’ Coasters park in Arizona, but it happened back in November 2024 though.

I’m not sure what the repercussions were of the incident or if it was ever announced what exactly happened here but the incident was widely reported in the media at the time.
