Child dies at Schlitterbahn in KCK
This is horrifying. Supposed to be a press conference soon with more details. Rumors seem to indicate it happened on the Verrukt, the world's tallest waterslide.

Depends what incident report. Every injury and shutdown when I worked at a theme park required an incident report whether it was injury, the ride breaking down, or shutdown due to weather. At that time I wasn't on the data side of things but I am sure that there were collected and leveraged for a number of things. High maintenance rides were looked to be replaced or have the manufacture come in and fix the design flaws if still under contract, rides that went down to weather often might be moved under a canopy if possible, and of course rides that cause a lot of injuries might be fixed or shuttered for good to be replaced later.

The building permit review process is simply for compliance with local and national building codes. if the documents are stamped by licensed architects and engineers that is where the responsibility is assumed.

When I was in college, I worked security at JCPenney Catalog out in Lenexa. And they paid us GOOD MONEY where a substantial part of our job was documenting safety violations as minor as pallets in front of emergency exits or carts parked in front of eye-wash stations. I don't know what they did with our reports, but I know they wanted us vigilant of even minor safety infractions. I can't imagine actual injuries being swept under any rug in a commercial place of business, then when you see it happen, it's eye-opening.

Jeff Henry, the co-owner of Schlitterbahn, was arrested on Monday in Cameron County, Texas, on charges related to the 2016 death of a 10-year-old boy on a water slide in Kansas.
