@cbsmornings: Attorney Michael Wilk is recovering from two brain surgeries to stop internal bleeding from a head injury he sustained after riding Six Flags Magic Mountain’s X2 roller coaster in February — and he is not the only one suffering. Wilk is one of more than 100 people the Dordick Law Corporation says it represents, who claim to have suffered traumatic brain injuries after riding the coaster. 22-year-old Christopher Hawley died from a brain injury after riding the coaster in 2022. Six Flags shut down the ride in July and declined to comment on pending litigation. #sixflags #rollercoaster
I can promise you, if one person would have suffered this, I would not have went on the ride

I kinda feel like you can’t predict how this will affect people because of the spinning aspect? So dangerous

The whole shock absorber aspect it’s a good point. Rides have to be engineered and properly mediated. It doesn’t matter how crazy they are. A smooth execution is essential.

I rode this as a young teenager and this was the only ride to ever scare me so bad and I felt like I had gotten hit by a semi when I tried to get off and walk to my family.
