Amusement Park 9-1-1

Autor Kermit Gonzalo
en Limba Engleză Paperback
America's amusement parks have seen it all; deaths, dismemberment, shootings, stabbings, sex crimes, animal attacks and some down right crazy behavior. The amusement park industry claims your trip to an amusement park is one of the safest forms of entertainment in the country. Industry statistics state the odds of being severely injured on an amusement ride are 1 in 24 million; the chances of being killed on one are 1 in 750 million. However, if you are that one, your accident is likely catastrophic and devastating. Amusement Park 9-1-1 reveals the stories the amusement park industry doesn't want you to hear. Stories that may have you thinking twice when you're standing in line ready to board a thrill ride. Do you know the federal government doesn't regulate the biggest names in the amusement park industry? Do you know that Universal Studios, Orlando, actually claims their park is in an "Urban High-Crime Area"? How did a roller coaster rider at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter go blind? Tragically, it had nothing to do with wizardry. Is SeaWorld a prime target for terrorists? According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the park could be. What do a church group, a bronze medal winning Olympic athlete, and a group of librarians all have in common? They claimed Six Flags Magic Mountain discriminated against them due to their race. What NFL prospect took a 35-foot drop from a gondola ride at Busch Gardens and lived to tell about it? Ever hear the old saying, "Bad things happen in threes"? In one evening, three people died at the largest amusement park in the mid-west. Strap on your seat belt and pull down the lap bar. These stories and many more are featured in Amusement Park 9-1-1, when thrill rides become kill rides."
