  1. Want answers? He should have been checked by attendant. He was not video clearly shows that. The ride attendant knew it, but felt bad maybe. Video shows him steering at that seat bc the restrain was high up but occupied. There should be 3 light, Red, yellow, green. Also a good old seat belt. The ride manufacturer Fun Time Rides, states it's not needed. Well a seat belt would of kept the teen from sliding out due to his basketball shorts. The mesh slippery material, hard polished plastic seats, and the huge gap from restraint to seat. The 30 degree tilt on seat, the G Force with his weight, let this teen slip right out. A seat belt would have saved his life.

  4. I was there it was because his seatbelt wasn't on all the way someone he reached the top and lean forward he fell out that's how because I was in the watch watching him then for a moment later I thought it was like a rock something else until we everybody starts screaming and stuff like that but yeah all it was was because this is how he died was because he didn't have his sleep out all the way on and his people must have came off or somebody next to him must have took his seat unbuckled his seat belt when he wasn't looking
