The manufacturer of the Superman Tower of Power says it did not supply the cable that sliced off a girl's feet at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom on Thursday. The ride's cables and wire ropes would have had the need for replacement at least several times since the ride opened in 1995, but those replacement parts did not come from Intamin. The company says it has not supplied parts for the ride for 13 years.
Intamin doesn’t make cable, it buys it, so there claim is irrelevant. Intamin’s design failed to provide guarding to prevent loose and broken cables from moving into areas where uneducated folks are expected to be present.
