[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How on earth can netting cause decapitation? I understand the raft was traveling at high speeds, but this is just insane to me. [/quote] There was at least one gap on the slide that did not have netting - this gap appears to be there as part of the design, not because the net got torn or anything. If a person launched up from the raft at that gap and their neck collided with the edge of that netting structure --- ^ ---- at 65 or so mph they would be badly injured.[/quote] You aren't going to launch at that gap. It's on the downslope. You are pushed into the back of the seat. [/quote] It doesn't matter where you launched on that ride. As it turns out, if you launched and hit that net you were going to be badly hurt and quite likely killed. I think this was less of an IF and more of a WHEN. Which, if true, is completely unacceptable.[/quote]
