@nbcsouthflorida: Man who died at Six Flags survived cancer twice and a recent fiery car accident. The 42-year-old Atlanta teacher who was ejected from a roller coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia and fell to his death was described by loved ones as a passionate educator who overcame several health challenges and a recent near-death experience. Three weeks before Hassan Jihad Ibn Kariem was thrown from his seat on the Goliath ride, he was in a fiery car crash and walked away unharmed, family members told NBC affiliate WXIA. According to the outlet, Kariem's 10-year-old daughter was also in the car and survived without injuries.
