Investigation focuses on cable

(Saturday, June 23, 2007) - The manufacturer of the Superman Tower of Power says it did not supply the cable that sliced off a girl's feet at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom on Thursday. The ride's cables and wire ropes would have had the need for replacement at least several times since the ride opened in 1995, but those replacement parts did not come from Intamin. The company says it has not supplied parts for the ride for 13 years.

Inspectors from the Kentucky Department of Agriculture's Office of Consumer and Environmental Protection believe that the cable is to blame for the accident, but they are still trying to determine why the cable snapped and how it got caught around the girl's legs.

The girl remains hospitalized, but there is no word on her condition.





OMG!!!See what kind of bizarre accidents happen every single day @ some kind of amusement park?!?!?😲It's really kind of sad if u ask me.....these people need 2 first better understand their own rides that they have put up,understand how to work them and of course how the machine is builtJust because of their carelessness this poor girl ended up losing her leg😡😡
