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.

I wondered if the Hunt family was still involved with the park. They aren't. It was sold to Cedar Fair in 1995 for $40 M. This is the same company that owns and operates the mega coaster park, Cedar Point, up near Cleveland, Ohio. |

Of all the shitty stuff we deal with as humans, the loss of a young child may be the worst.
Just ****ing terrible.

That's a sizable pool at WoF it wouldn't be to difficult with all the people and floaty things in it for a small child to drown IMO. Just takes seconds to do, I've had my older brothers hold my head under the water a few times when we we're kids. It was a part of growing up at least in my house.
RIP to the small child regardless. ![]() |

This happened during the Independence Day weekend and still not much info on it. I bet it was one crowded pool though.

Pretty sure it was a 12-year old girl, although I don't believe that's been reported yet.

Yeah, I remember the Orient being pretty damn smooth. The Timberwolf beat the hell out of you though. Once was enough for me as well.

Timberwolf was a rough ride. Hated it. The Zambezi Zinger was the smoothest ride of any roller coaster I’ve ever been on. Loved that coaster. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good grief.
Those pools get crazy.

Word is out that a Margaritaville or Jimmy Buffett type casino is going to go in on that area. As well as some youth baseball fields. Circa 2025
