Child dies at Schlitterbahn in KCK

[tk13]

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.

Boy, 12, killed in accident at Schlitterbahn Water Park in Kansas City, Kan., police say. https://t.co/Msn6QJO1ZS pic.twitter.com/gse0gZvIC6

Not trying to be mean here at all, I'm asking honestly - does the head continue to see or feel after detaching? I thought I'd heard during the Guilitine phase that the head has like 30 seconds after rolling off the gallows and into the bucket. But again just asking


May he RIP

Bad news: despite Dr. Guillotin's belief that having your head cut off is a humane method of execution, decapitation is going to hurt. Like, a lot. But the good news is that you'll only feel it for a second or two! Or maybe not: it could hurt for as long as seven seconds, which is how long it takes for the brain to use up all the oxygen in the blood. It's a notoriously hard thing to study since, y'know, it requires decapitating someone.

I saw one in Saudi Arabia. The head continued to scream for a bit. Then it turned all waxy and greenish. Odd thing to see at 16.

Jesus. It's a multi person ride? That would be horrifying.

Goddamn. Why did you see a beheading at 16?

[Why Not?]

You know those threads that you click on and read and then say to yourself "why in holy **** did I click on that?"

Yeah.

[Fish]

Those poor people who had to finish the ride. JFC that's gonna take years of counseling...

Yeah.

I'm always seeing these kinds of kids murdered/mistreated/die horrifically stories on yahoo and pass them by every single time, do not wanna hear the details

This one is so terrible it almost defies description... other kids being present on the raft, and I can only assume the poor lads head followed the raft on down to the bottom into the splash pool where dozens of other kids surely seen it

Terrible

For a father to lose a kid in this fashion would be beyond a nightmare. This was supposed to be a fun day. There's got to be some kind of ramifications from this somehow. A ten year old boy shouldn't have to die like this.

Doubt someone will ever get over something like that, especially with it likely being a friend or family. ****ing awful.

They removed the age restriction. Now a height and weight for the raft restriction.

I hope they get put completely under. Surprised it took this long for something serious to happen on that ride.

I don't think this is the first serious accident at this park.

How should they have to die?

[BryanBusby]

I'd say that they're probably going to end up having to dismantle that ride.
