This is pretty gross. I could not image anything this terrible would actually happen. Talk about something strait out of a final destination movie… Yikes!
omg! Good thing I don’t have long hair…!
I have long hair. And I am never <i>ever</i> going on a roller coaster again.
<b>Clutches long blonde locks</b>
Seriously though, that’s not a nice thing to happen. :sigh:
but rollercoasters are so fun! :-
(honestly… if he was one of the coaster operators, you’d think they’d have safety regulations on things like hair and other… um… long objects 
- more common sense than anything)
wow that sucks! well i guess stuff happens, but yeah it is like FD…
I don’t feel safe riding County Fair Rides. They are constantly taken apart and put back together, I’ll do all my riding at amusement parks.
Eeeeek!!!
Ow rubs scalp that would hurt like hell.
You know, they build dangling rollercoasters so you don’t have to try that.

I COMPLETELY agree - with the amount of times those things are disabled and put together by carnies - I will just stick with the amusement parks!
Just make sure you have scissors with you when you go near a roller coaster!
‘carnies… small hands… smell like cabbage’
There were people on the rollercoaster when that happened.
yes there were - that’s why they had counciling available I assume. They didnt even shut down for the day. Terrible.
