I read that a 14 year old boy was killed after riding a coaster at cp. May 28 1994. Anyone know about this.
he had a pre-exsisting undiagnosed heart condition, and after he rode Raptor he became ill and was rushed the hospital and died, and no its not an accident, more like an incident.
"If it looks good, you'll see it; if it sounds good, you'll hear it, if it's marketed right, you'll buy it; but... if it's real, you'll feel it."
And he wasn't "killed". He died.
Lakeland, are you sure it was Raptor? My memory is a little blurry, but I could have sworn that his last ride had been Wildcat.

Saturday, May 28, 1994 - A 14-year-old boy died after riding a roller coaster at an amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio.
Like they said, an incident, not an accident. CP is on there very few times and no deaths what so ever.

And sometimes people die after mowing the lawn, getting out of bed, while grocery shopping, on the golf course, etc.
Why a web site called "rideaccidents.com" would have that listed is beyond me.
Closed topic.
