18 Injured at Valleyfair
This isn't exactly related to College Geo, but there was an accident tonight at Valleyfair with the Wild Thing. Apparently the back part seperated from the rest of the cars and it went off the track. The details on how the accident occured and the position of the car are difficult to interpert, but Valleyfair says they are coming out with answers to the accident soon. At KARE11.com, one person who was interviewed said they would never ride another roller coaster in their life. The Wild Thing is obviously safe as it has operated over the last 10 years with nothing like this happening, but it's interesting to see that out of its probably hundreds of thousands of runs, that this incident may hugely shake up confidence in the ride. KSTP has good coverage of the ride, images and video.
