"I seen the car go up. Then, like, the cable broke ... and I heard a lot of people screaming," Chris Stinnett, who was at a ride next to the Tower of Power, told CNN affiliate WDRB/WMYO-TV in Louisville.

"The cable went under the car -- and I seen it pull up and hit a lot of people -- and I seen them bring their legs up," he said. (Watch witnesses describe the accident Video)

"We are not confirming that happened," McLean said. "There was a lot of misinformation from witnesses."
I find this whole segment to be pretty funny.

My god. Can you imagine seeing your own feet detached from your body? This doesn't really make me excited to go to Six Flags this year...it took forever for me to convince myself that I couldn't fall out of a rollercoaster and that they were "completely safe."

Meh,if I saw my feet in somebodies hands and not on my legs,I'd probably pass out or something of that sort(vomiting is also an option).

I've never been to six flags though,im not a fan of roller coasters either.Whenever I get near a roller coaster,I think about final destination 0_0.

Yet another reason why I go to Cypress Gardens instead.

I read about that the other day. However, in the article itself, it doesn't go into much detail about how her feet were severed off.

For some reason my immediate thought was someone whose feet just kind of disappeared, and the police were attempting to find them.

"Well one moment I was sitting at a bench eating my Dippin' Dots, then it got up to go get a soft pretzel and my ankles just smashed into the ground! Someone please find my feet, I'm sure they're cold and scared right now, wherever they are."

It broke while the ride was in operation, it hit her across the legs, no one fell out of the ride

Read the goddamn article before you post

This is the exact reason why I never go on rides like this in the first place. On top of that, this ride is what, 12 years old now? Not to sound cruel, but a ride that old was bound to have something go wrong with it sooner or later. :/

Severed, not severed off. Sorry for the nitpicking but I couldn't let it go.


And with extensive reconstructive surgery, it's fixable. I had a finger replaced after it got cut off in a folding chair; I imagine that they reattached them in surgery.
