Man dies after being by the Raptor.

Apparently the dude dropped his phone while riding the ride or something, hopped a fence to get it and the coaster hit him in the head.

It's exactly the same story as the kid killed by a coaster last year or so who went to get his hat.

I fully expect the family to sue the park because "the fence wasn't enough of a deterrent.

You've gotta be one dumb mother fucker to jump a fence where a coaster that gets that close to the ground runs.  

Its like the dumb ass a few weeks ago that ran onto the e-way here in Toledo and got struck by a car, all because he wanted his precious phone.  Fuck that

I'm more amazed at how dumb you'd have to be to not get out of the way of an approaching coaster/car.  Jumping the fence is not necessarily dumb in itself, but you do then have to be on high alert.  Don't get within 10 feet of any coaster rails or car lanes without a full understanding of the oncoming traffic and timing involved.

Have these people never played froger?

Stupid guy just hopped the fence and got tunnel vision.  Bet a dollar he wasn't a Marine.

Noisy place in general and the one he got hit by is really fast. Probably had less than a second of audible warning.

Also that coaster is the kind that hangs under the rail, so anything that comes close enough to the ground to hit someone iis coming out of a loop.

Your legs dangle. I can't believe he was hit by a car and not a person's shoe.
