Kid Decapitated At Six Flags.

AUSTELL, Ga. (June 28) - A teenager was decapitated by a roller coaster after he hopped a pair of fences and entered a restricted area Saturday at Six Flags Over Georgia, authorities said.

Six Flags officials are uncertain why the unidentified 17-year-old from Columbia, S.C. scaled two six-foot fences and passed signs that said the restricted area was both off-limits and dangerous to visitors, spokeswoman Hela Sheth said in a news release.

Authorities were investigating reports from witnesses who said the teenager jumped the fences to retrieve a hat he lost while riding the Batman roller coaster, said Cobb County police Sgt. Dana Pierce. Police have declined to release the teenager''''s name until an autopsy is completed.

Six Flags said it closed the roller coaster after the Saturday afternoon accident out of respect for the teen''''s family. The ride was expected to reopen on Sunday, according to a Six Flags news release.

Police said the ride was going full-speed when the teen was struck. The ride''''s top speed is 50 mph, according to the park''''s Web site.

No one riding on the roller coaster was injured, Sheth said. The teen was with another boy who also entered the restricted area but was not injured, Pierce said.

The teen and his parents were at the park with a group from the Oakey Spring Baptist Church near Springfield, S.C., police said.





Next time pay attention to the signs.

Mmmmm, I smell Darwin Award.

Seriously though, the ride says to put away hats and glasses. They also have a box for that stuff. What a douche.

Seriously, you're riding front car and it's like.


"weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-HOLY CRAP !!!! *SQUASH*"

Sometimes, it's good to follow rules.

What an idiot.

Skydive over a sporting event with skydivers and pretend to be part of their group, deploy your parachute, glide right over the packed stands and use a charge just large enough to make your body a fine mist to fall on all the spectators.

Take a bunch of strychnine around Halloween and find a public haunted house like the ones they sometimes have at malls.  Wait until death occurs and let the people coming through think your just a really realistic statue until rigor mortis goes away and you collapse on some poor soul.

Lawl.

^haha, I've thought about doing that a few times. Send a letter to my Best friends, and tell the postal worker, I need this shipped next week, not today or tomorrow.

Then be like "Yeah, that drunk driver didn;t kill me, I ran out infront of him."

Wow I'm a jackass.

yep, don't ignore the signs. about 20 years ago, a kid ignored the signs at the Bronx zoo and climbed into the polar bear pit and swam across the moat, on a dare.  He was about 12.  Anyway, the polar bears got him.  another dumb ass.  This guy's death closes a ride and ruins everyone else's fun for the day just like polar bear food boy cost the Bronx zoo 3 polar bears. The cops shot the bears trying to save the kid in the polar bear pit.
