All these kids on here defending the ride after someone dies, saying it was just the strap, the weight, his fault (not), whatever. When you grow up and become an adult, you realize that’s not how life works. Someone dies and that’s usually the end of the ride or the theme park, because no one should have died. If someone does, it is usually because the park owners were negligent and did not care about the safety of people they took money from. They basically ignored people if they got hurt or complained about straps coming off—because the owners only cared about keeping their silly Hot Wheels track. Any other professional theme park would have paid attention long before a child died. These people were completely uneducated as to roller coasters—they built little water slides. They broke every rule of roller coaster safety, someone said. Engineers told them it was flawed and they were like little kids with Hot Wheels tracks—well, it was okay that time so scientists are wrong. Duh—no. We have eliminated metal gearshifts in cars that have impaled people in a crash, and yet these idiots put a series of metal rings in front of your neck in a car going 70 mph. If it still existed, are you really sure you would ride it again, knowing it could very well take your head off if the raft simply flew upwards because someone else shifted their weight? Are you sure? You would really take that chance of decapitating yourself? If it was your mom or your dad or your brother, you would not be saying, “oh well it’s okay it was just the strap or it was his fault or oh well.” But you will learn these things in life. If someone hurts you, or renders you disabled for the rest of your life, you will definitely be screaming, that “someone else should have done something before I got hurt”! Assuming you’re still alive to say it. Rip poor Caleb.
The ride is safe funny looking at the comments saying it’s not because of a boy dying on it. Wasn’t the slide nor the parks fault. He didn’t meet the age or height limit for the slide but his parents got a way to get him on anyways. So was nothing to do with the park itself and was mainly on their behalf the kid was too small.
I’ll make homemade water slide in my yard instead Rest In Peace Caleb Schwab

Aged like milk
Our hearts go out to the family of the boy that died on this slide.
Me: no.
My sister:wh—
Me: no
1:27 its not 64 stories
The price is ur head
The same people who first built it thinking it was ok are the same idiots who "fixed" it? Ok. I'm next on the ride!
Any1 else thought of verrückt zombies ?
it isnt taller than the statue of liberty
well quite clearly something was wrong because i'm pretty sure 12 year olds don't get decapitated here and there for no reason
I did the 64 story ride and I threw up and pissed my pants because it was so scary
And now it’s closed due to fucking death
And then a 12 year old boy was decapitated by the safety net.
Oh boy, does that look fun! I'm gonna ask my parents if we can go!
Damn the water slide name gave me cod WaW zombies flashbacks
Wait is this the ride where the kid got decapitated.
So epic ???

Matt Gutman is probably disturbed by the fact someone died on that slide and how that could’ve been him who died.
That ride has sensed closed a child died on this ride
Was this the same ride that decapitated the kid?
Poor Kid probably saw this video …
At the begging of that slide, can you imagine what would happens if you clipped your foot on one of the sides
A lot of things wrong with this.
if you see a chainlink fence on the slide, you know it's a cheeze grater
