I read that she knew something was wrong with her restraint and they told her if it clicked it was ok. It was supposed to click 3 times and hers only clicked once. The employees at these places are just kids. I never feel like the restraints are actually checked. They are just trying to hurry to get the ride going. I’m petrified of roller coasters for this very reason.

I rode the Texas Giant in December with my 11 year old son. Those were kids working, but I remember them being very serious and checking the restraints very well. I am a bit overweight and I fit in nicely and the restraints clicked and rechecked over and over. If this woman’s seat was not thoroughly checked by the teen workers, then it was human error. I will never let my kids or myself ride the Texas Giant again. So sad.
