I'm sure someone will try to blame Intamin for this.

I blame NASA.

And Disney, for not doing something the first time. Pre-existing condition or not, this thing is fatally triggering them at an alarming rate. There's a problem here.

^ Well, we don't have the full deets yet, so to assume she had some pre-existing condition is speculative, though obviously my gut says she probably did have something. Disney's pickle now is that they have a ride that can be linked to the death of two seperate people on two seperate occassions, but with similar symptoms. They either need to tone it down or replace it. Both of these options kind of suck, but its in the best interest of the park and the families of the deceased.

I can see it now. Mission: Playground.

The first time, the autopsy sugguested the boy died of natural causes.

Just sayin! You cant really be in a position to blame anyone, especially going off of information the parks and media have released.

Yea absolutely I'm just taking a not-really-educated educated guess here :)

It's a shame because the ride is pretty good as it is but business is business and you don't want a $100 mil ride being abandoned completely by the guests (as it was the lines were really friggin short last month!) so I guess we may see the end of "YOLOcoaster" Mission Space.

I cannot go on any ride that spins you round and round, not a carousel nor a playground wheel, makes me feel too much beer room spinny nauseous. The only reason I went on M:S was because I didn't realise that there was a centrifuge involved. Came off it looking a little paler than I usually do, needed to sit down and regroup my mind for a bit. But you can't criticise the owners for not warning you. I haven't ever been on a ride where there are more warnings about the consequences of what is about to happen. I hope they leave it alone.

I Love Donkeys!

About the 4 year old, what kind of evil parent takes their child on a thrill ride that intense AT 4???? And they also had a condition. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MISSION SPACE!!!
