Man Falls to His Death From Roller Coaster
COLORADO
A man fell to his death after standing up on a Six Flags amusement park ride in Denver, authorities said.
The death came a day after a worker at Six Flags Over Georgia was killed when he was struck in the head by a roller coaster passenger’s dangling legs.
The 24-year-old in Denver, whose name was not released, was seen unlatching his seat belt before he fell, authorities said.
Officials at Six Flags Over Georgia were unsure how or why Samuel Milton Guyton, 58, of Atlanta walked into the no-access area. Passengers on the ride sit in seats attached to a track above. The girl whose legs hit Guyton was hospitalized and released.
