Still seeing a few comments on this after i addressed it. But to clear things up, I'm completely aware a picture of Full Throttle is shown when talking about Revolution. If you pay attention to the boarders you'll notice it belongs to a News network. This was the first reporting News network on scene and there was some confusion as they were only given "a white roller coaster with a loop in it." Since Full Throttle is extremely more noticeable then Revolution, this is probably why this mistake happened. So there isn't any more confusion NO ONE has ever died while riding Full Throttle.

Why am I watching this the day before I go to six flags... 🤦‍♀️

#1 tip of amusement parks Don't be dumb

You don’t ride a 255 foot roller coaster if you suffer from heart disease and high blood pressure!!!

99% of these are the people’s fault, or poor health during ride.

At least it's good to know that most of these weren't because of the ride malfunctioning but mostly because people aren't cautious enough or are plain out stupid

How many people have hopped a fence into a restricted area and got hit by a coaster? Damn, people are stupid. I feel bad that they died and whatever, but that's basically natural selection in its purest form.

This will not stop me from going.

Most accidents at ALL theme parks are not the parks fault, but the fault of the guest, but the park still assumes liability. Employees sometimes get overconfident on the rides they work on and take unnecessary risks which make up some of the other accidents, I know because I did...luckily nothing ever happened to me.

Regarding the newlyweds on Eagle's Flight... I was working at the park when his happened, and heard this explanation, which made more sense than the 'rocking the bucket' story: That particular Eagle's Flight bucket had been loaned out to Universal Studios to be used in the Abominable Snowman episode of 'The 6 Million Dollar Man'. The bucket was returned AND PUT BACK ON LINE WITHOUT BEING CHECKED TO SEE IF IT HAD BEEN TAMPERED WITH. The incident happened early that day, just after opening, on what would have been the first time that bucket had been used. The fact that it fell only fifty feet (it's a VERY tall ride) indicates that it fell VERY close to the departure point, during the steep climb portion of the ride, onto the concrete walkway. It is highly unlikely that these people -- newlyweds especially -- would start rocking the buckets just as they left the station.

I have read and followed many park accidents throughout the years. I have watched many videos as well. This is probably the most respectful one I have seen. Well done.

In about 2000, my mom went on Revolution. The staff didn’t secure her seatbelt correctly and the person next to her had to hold her down for most of the ride.

my uncle was on revolution at the same time as the girl got hit. he hasnt ever told me all the details but he only told me about how there was a big thump. although he didnt see the girl since he was in the very back, he said word on word that he heard a family in the front screaming in terror. my uncle told me he never knew about the causing of the thump until like 2002 from a headline regarding the family of the girl. to this day it still gives me a ball in my throat just thinking about it

R.I.P to all these beautiful life’s lost.

Well done video. Very informative. It gets annoying to hear all of the bad information, mixing of stories, or all out lies that we hear so thanks for clearing that up!

So basically the newlyweds were playing hide the salami on the ride.

The last time I went to six flags, I was 13 with my friend. We went on Tatsu for the last time before we left and when my seatbelt was put on it didn’t feel that tight. But this young woman next to me maybe 18-20 pushed it down to make it more snug. Idk why but it made me feel safe being by her and I’ll remember it forever. This was the last time I went before covid happened ☹︎

I live in the area around magic mountain, its a 20 - 10min drive so I go frequently. My friends and I were there in 2015. We were celebrating our graduation and we headed over to Revolution because we hadn't rode it yet. We started walking up to the entrance when we noticed workers weren't letting people in. We stood there in confusion wondering if we should ask how long the ride was going to stay closed for since it was open earlier when we saw the people working with the ambulance run in with the stretcher. We started to talk to each other in disbelief that someone passed out or died. We decided to leave the scene because out childish minds thought the person had gotten mutilated somehow and we didnt want to see the corpse being dragged out. Anyways, the rest of the day passed and being really immature we joked about with some friends we encountered on how we saw a person die on revolution and saw the ambulance workers come and take her corpse out, unknowing of the severity of the real incident. We were really disrespectful and I wish I never took part in the joking about it. Well the next day my friend was on the news and she saw that she had died. She ended up recording what they were saying on her cell phone and sent it to all of us. Needless to say we all were in shock and regret for the jokes we had made. The memory is fuzzy and I'm not really sure if it was a stretcher or not but it looked like one.

8:24 that picture is of full throttle

In case you don't remember I was one of the top 5 first subscribers and I loved your channel! I took about a 2 week break from it because I was very busy. It is amazing to see how far your channel has grown since then!

Original Magic Mountain logo depicted from 10:44-52, also the same one depicted on the hard-hat that my uncle wore when it was being constructed. He actually picked the site of Magic Mountain, named it, and was the first President there, where prior to that, he was one if the VP's at Seaworld. He was at Magic Mountain for the first couple of years, then moved on. He was also the 5th person to be hired by Disneyland Inc. in 1954, before Disneyland was built, and was the Park operations manager from 1956-61, before moving on th renovate Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio in 1961. I can quite easily document these facts!

read the warnings whenever you go to an amusement park god

I used to know that girl in 2nd grade Rip My best friend forever 💘

Very Mature and Well Done with respect to the Injured and the Park. I had to subscribe and I look forward to more videos from you.....Love to you...love to all...Kitten

I grew up in Valencia. I remember hearing things about people dying. Your video is the only one talking them. I’ve seen a few roller coaster accidents. But nothing about six flags magic mountain. Good job and thank you

Six flags over Texas had a death where a lady fell off the coaster due to a safety belt situation as well.

Frankly it sounds like every time you hear about someone ejected from a coaster due to restraint failure, the unfortunate guest always complained about feeling unsafe but was reassured by an operator. I’m sure most operators have never dealt with a potential tragedy so they believe it to be safe. I think the message here is that if you’re feeling unsafe, just get off the ride regardless of the reassurance of the operator. They generally trust their rides and don’t foresee something so tragic happening.

The first time I went to the park was right after Colossus had just reopened. I was told that the ride was shutdown for two years and rebuilt because a woman committed suicide on the ride. I was told that she had intentionally ensured the lap bar wasn't secured. I have always wondered about the authenticity of the story. Thanks. Now I know the truth which sounds more plausible than what I was told decades ago. I appreciate this video clearing up all the myths out there.

dude I just watched all your videos, such great content, keep it up man I'm hooked!

Very well done video. I'm officially a new subscriber. Rest in peace to those lost in the video.

The one where the girl didn't get an autopsy definetly sounds like the parents did something to her. You don't just die for no reason on a roller coaster

Thank you for the tasteful manner in which you covered this subject.

I used to work at Six flags magic mountain and I heard some stories and I want to say thank you for the video. Keep making more videos. I look forward to them

Just a few more details on Cherie La Motte. She was a ride operator at the revolution station. When the ride arrives to the station, it makes a total stop at the entrance where it is not yet ready to unload and load passengers, when that occurs, sometimes the operators in order to cross the tracks they can do so with the train stopped at the entrance only, the signal to cross is holding up a fist so the operator on the controls can push pause so the train doesn't move into the station. Well when she tried to cross the tracks, she did lift her fist but not high enough for the operator to see, so the train went in, it startled her and she misstepped on the tracks causing her to fall in during the train rolling into the station. She had no time to get up from the tracks and was crushed. Now the signal to cross the tracks is holding both arms up above the head in a criss cross manner, they cannot cross until the operator says so on the loudspeaker. The track she crossed was a very thin platform so now they widened it for easier crossing. I should know , I was there when it happened, I worked as a security guard at the time. May she rest in peace.

(Sorry for commenting too much) but on the one at hurricane harbor, I was waiting in line for the new bonzai pipeline thing and some crazy old guy was waiting next to me and he said that he was there and he saw him drunk, running past him and jumping down the pretty much vertical drop slide and landed on the fence and he said if you look closely, you can still the crookedness of the fence that he fell on (this is why they made the bonsai pipeline slide). I had tried looking this up for hours and couldn't find anything so anyways thank you for clarifying that.

As a avid enthusiast and former employee your video was informative and spot on most of these things could have been avoided osha was in its infancy back in the 70s

Good job buddy, thank you for making this video as accurate as possible. It’s not easy to watch since these poor families and people who passed are still hurting. It still has to be shown so that the facts are correct and no more made up stories are told.

I was a Ride Op at a Six Flags. Safety was our top priority. I would definitely let my kids ride any Six Flags, and I'd have complete confidence that they'd be in excellent hands. To keep guests out of restricted areas, I did call maintenance a couple of times to retrieve lost hats. No trains can be in motion while anyone is in the danger zone... the ride has to essentially be shut down until it's clear.

Why do I feel like I'm the next one? Lolz

I was at magic mountain yesterday and my chin got cut open while riding X2 and still don’t know how it happened

All KZfaq channels that do these types of videos are usually click baited to death and it is so annoying but thank you for making this video. I love this channel and am looking forward to new videos 👍

Love that i stumbled across this vid before i go in 2 weeks for my bday

Very informative. Seems that story of people trying to get their hat is too frequent. Someone at California's Great America went to get a hat, they were struck by someone's leg (which broke) and the person getting the hat was decapitated.

This is such a sad video but that shishkabob joke or however you spell it

I'm glad you made this video it's very informative, it's sad to see people just say the coaster is safe when it clearly isn't but "classroom setting" We watched the exorcist once in 7th grade, but he didn't care about rules

The 10yo girl, Jasmine, so sad 😢. God bless her and her family 🙏

Six flags hurricane harbor stories would be awesome man! Just subbed 😀

Narrator: *mumbles quietly like billie eilish* Ads: *SCREAM AT ME UNTIL MY EARS BLEED*

Carlos died the day I turned six. The same year I rode my first rollercoaster, Gemini, at Cedar Point. I fell bad for the man.

78 was a dark year holy shit

I went to Six Flags over Ga back in 2012 and got on the ninja which has now been updated btw. but I noticed my harness was wobbly and didn't sit down to me and made me nervous. thankfully they listened and got it checked out.

As morbid as this was . . . . thanks for informing us. What about videos with other Six Flags incidents like this?

Can you do more of these videos?? About deaths at parks or zoos

Bruh why am I watching this I’m literally going to six flags in a few days

You should do a video about all the ghosts there at Magic Mountain. The ghost stories were some of my favorite parts of working there

I feel like when people see the title of this video we instantly think it's the rides fault or the parks fault however it's proved in this video that that's not the case. It's mostly the employees fault or the guest and theme parks shouldn't be judged by this.

5:35 I bet it was at that final high-g long curve. That part makes a lot of people black out or come close to it.

Thanks for the upload

I just planned my trip to six flags yesterday and I get this one my recommendations

I worked a hurricane harbor and it’s really scary being a lifeguard on the slides because they jump up off the slide coming down an you don’t know if they will fly off so we yell at them the stay flat and lean back some don’t listen how we tell them to go down an get bruised or hurt there backs

Wow I grew up hearing stories about a woman who died at six flags mm on colossus and that on Halloween she comes out at night, but to hear the full true story, makes it so much sadder and scarier.

They have warnings on thrill rides for a reason. Don't ride if you don't like the warnings.

Very respectful tone An accurate narration.

Thanks for clarifying this info, but i am not sure why i needed to know these details to the letter.

When I heard decapitated I was like "Im done I cant it's so sad to see people die" I can't believe all this tragedy its horrible I wish everyone and everything was safe so we could have a better life so no one dies they can have a lovely peaceful life. R.I.P (Six Flag Visitors)

I can't figure out where the guy who flew off the waterslide was... which slide and where he flew off. Most of the slides with humps or steep drops are nowhere near a fence; it's crazy that he could have flown that far! Anyone know?

I love this video, make more like it please with other parks

Months before the closure of Deja Vu I almost died when the harness failed as soon as the ride started. Luckily my scream/other's screams to stop the ride got the attention of the operator fast enough and they were able to halt the train. The harness was locked in an open position and they couldn't get it to reset so they taped it up and let me ride in another seat. 3/4 of the people on the ride got off the train and it went as normal with no problems. I can't imagine how bad my death would have been if the harness failed during the initial drop or any other point of the ride given its intensity.. They gave me a nice cold bottle of water once I got off the ride though so that was nice. lol

So strange that I remember every single one of these events, Magic Mountain was my favorite Amusement park for many years.

Great video.. all amusement parks/water parks are safe as long as u follow the rules. Now it is sad what happens at magic mountain before six flags owning it. Now stuff does happen beyond the park control but as far as people passing out the park has signs that says if u have certain conditions don’t ride. Those are there for a good reason

Wow that colossus incident tho, I’ve been on a ride and my thing was clicked but the light wasn’t on so they restarted the whole thing for putting shoulder restraints on and it was perfectly fine. They would never let anyone ride something that wasn’t fully safe but I guess those employees were just lazy and didn’t care about safety smh

Why am I watching this a week before I go to Magic Mountain?

Pearl Santos death on Goliath, I was at Six Flags Magic Mountain that day. I took two of my friends to magic mountain, ecstatic to ride Goliath, one of the newest rides at the time. Once we entered the park, we noticed the ride was shutdown, for unknown reasons. It was still early in the day, but a few hours later the ride was opened back up and we rushed to get on the ride before the line got too long. It was later that night when we got home, we seen on the news that someone had died on the Goliath ride... It was shocking to know the true reason why the ride was shut down temporarily that day.

When a person complains that their restraint is not functioning properly or their lap bar is not closed or any other problem, CHECK IT ! If you do not want to do your job do not be a ride operator ! NO EXCUSES....PERIOD !

I think this is very very very useful on all levels 😊

I can tell you working security at six flags during 2012 the guy at hurricane harbor is mostly accurate except for one little detail. He was super drunk and that is why he ran up though everyone and he never stopped at the top he just kept going and he jumped down the slide then bounced off and down to the fence. He was so drunk the fall actually didnt phase him at all and actually kept running till security caught him and then went to the hospital after

R.I.P. to all of them

Not sure if I remember this correctly, but wasnt there a park employee that committed suicide by jumping off the sky tower? I'm not sure of the date but it was a rumor I hear when I used to work there sever year's ago.

I got on these rides yesterday............scary but thanks for the info

I went to school with jasmine and was personally friends with her and good ones. So the day I got back her friends and I all kinda wondered why she wasn’t at the first day of 5th grade. But later that day we had an assembly and near the end of the assembly (it was a welcome back kinda assembly) the principal came on stage and showed a picture of jasmine on the screen and I was wondering why, he then said that she had passed away during the summer and didn’t explain how. I’m happy I found this video and ik how my good friend had passed. RIP Jasmine

For all the famliys that had a lost. I'm very sorry for your lost and I hope that you are ok. If I was you I would be crying my head off. And one last thing.If you are still haunted by the memories.......the person who you lost is still with you and watching you. From, Arianna Jensen

5:02 Sounds like what happened to the bomber in the 1977 movie "Rollercoaster" - same coaster. But the character ran into a forbidden area and climbed onto the track.

I’m glad that I wathched this. The one that’s scared me was the full throttle one. I know I wouldn’t handle that and I would pass out which could be a huge mistake but all in all I won’t go on big rides when I go😂

I went on the ride Revolution at Magic Mountain and immediately got nauseous. I don't think I'll ever go on that ride again due to how clunky the ride feels.

Well, off to go to Six Flags Magic Mountain!

It's horrible when you realize one of the deaths was on your birthday.

I have high blood pressure, I'm afraid of coasters and an aneurysm occuring...so that story just combined both fears !

What's that music playing in the background the instrumental that sounds very familiar

The part about the bat,an at Over Georgia, didn’t that happen at Great America? Or did it literally happen at both parks?

i know this would be a really hard and long one but can you do action parkk cause i try to read the stories but there also mixed confusing

Man I feel really terrible for that jasmine girl she was probably the one that needed saving the most )-;

I remember when I went with my friends around 2011 or 2012 we would get on ninja and i always thought that the tree branches were so close to the ride and so I thought it was good idea to let the operator and other employees know about it and they said that they were gonna cut it and never did. So then in the news it showed that there was an accident on the ninja ride like 3 years ago and well I guess they didn’t listen.

Your video's are life🙌

RIP to all that past from these events.

I was riding apocalypse with my brother and we were about to go down the drop and my lap bar unlocked. I then held on for my life and on the airtime hills I literally went out of my seat. I was just glad they had seatbelts.

I was so sad until u mentioned the shishkabobs I was laughing so hard

DAMN MY DAD LOST HIS HAT ON NINJA AND WAS ASKING THE EMPLOYEES IF HE OR SOMEONE COULD GET IT. WE EVEN LOOKED OVER THE FENCE TO SEE THE HAT... CRAZY, GLAD WE DIDNT GET THT HAT 🙏🏽

I like the free template at the end XD

Wasnt there a death on the Stand Up Rollercoaster Shock Wave? When it was at Magic Mountain?

how do people not hear the whooshing sounds roller coaster cars or the screaming of passengers? if you can hear things like that viewing the ride far away, you should surely be able to hear the trains coming
