Cedar Point
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.

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.

Shutting down the world's 2nd tallest coaster.
I've heard rumors the woman died, but can't find any proof of that. UPDATE: Yeah, she died as a result of her injuries.
I think the piece falling was the last straw for the park. If you've been to Cedar Point during the time this ride was open it was 50/50 if it was operating. It broke down all the time and couldn't be used in any sort of wet conditions, so it was very typical for it to be sitting idle.
It is also a pretty lame ride. You wait for hours to board the coaster. It then shoots you up a basically vertical hill and then you shoot down the other side at 125 MPH or so. The ride is 30 seconds long.

"Pay to line cut" also turned me off.
Plus I started seeing huge groups of teens cutting the regular lines and shit was never done about it.
So fuck that noise.
