re: Boy, 14, who fell from 430-foot ride at Florida park was sitting in MODIFIED seat...

They aren’t 14, and he was more like 350. His muscles just weren’t up to his mass at that young age. The ride operators were absolutely 100% at fault and not that young man. I hope they find the murderer that was responsible for modifying that seat.

We lost a great young man from my high school with a good academic record that was going to have a full ride to play for U of Tennessee to an accidental drowning that a more mature and experienced person might have avoided, but he was only 18. We aren’t talking about a college player here, young men in high school are still working on their muscle development. Sad to see such a young life of promise (he was a straight A student) cut short.
