Does anyone know about a guy having a heart attack by corckscrew in 2003??? my team leader claims to say this is true. I wanted to see if anyone could back it up. thanks

People have heart attacks every day. Why would you find it hard to believe that someone had one at CP?

maybe i should re-phrase it. i mean to say a heart attack at corkscrews station rails. I wasn't at the meeting tonight but another co-worker has called me to ask me about it, and i never heard about it at all. I was woundering if a man had a heart attack in the station of corkscrew in the year 2003?

I recall hearing about it since I worked there that year, but I didn't think he was in the station. I'm not sure of the severity of the outcome since you can't trust much of what you hear through daily gossip. It's something that can happen anywhere at anytime, and it wasn't on a ride, so I would think that it's not really newsworthy enough to be reported by the local media.

Yes it happened in the queue, and yes he died. Sore subject, a lot of people from this site were there. Very sad.
