    Colorado investigators say a 6-year-old girl who died in a fall from a theme park ride was sitting on the two seat belts instead of wearing them. Operators never noticed despite checks. An alarm went off, but workers failed to understand why and reset it.http://apne.ws/lhLRKFm

        Am I the only person who is wondering why a six-year-old would be on a ride like that anyway? Don’t they have height limitations?

        Everyone blaming the parc again. A six year old not wearing her seat belt. Didn't she have any responsible adults or gardians on the ride with her?

        So they didn’t train their operators?

        Why would a parent allow a small young child to go on this ride to begin with? 🤦🏻‍♂️

        Parents didn’t think to check either? That’s sad

        Yeah. I mean really the blame should not be pinned anywhere, this was an accident and an awful tragedy. But it was preventable, and the park needs to ensure that this doesn't happen again. Can't imagine the guilt the parents must be feeling :/

        Well the Haunted part of the ride's name is now relevant.

        "This is not one of those rides where the rider is responsible for anything."🤔 100% RIP to the small child. But I don't know if I fully agree with the family's lawyer.
