What is the chance of getting hurt,or dying on a roller coaster?

Question

i am going to carowinds and i was just wondering.

Answer 1

Carowinds is a super-safe park. It's my home park and I've been there at least 50 times. The chance of getting hurt are 1 in one billion, you are more likely to get hurt in a car. Most accidents occur A. because someone was not following the directions (such standing up in a log flume) B. the park was not properly inspected (this almost never happens, especially not at a Cedar Fair park, Carowinds belongs to them) or C. person rode and had a pre-existing condition (such as a heart mumur).

Answer 2

The car you are going in is more likely to hurt you than an amusement park. Your house if more dangerous than riding a ride. I could fall down the stairs in an hour, and die accidently. I really think they need to have state inspectors inspect all our stairs in every house, and I might trip outside on those cracks in the sidewalk too.

They should also have state inspectors inspect our shoes, and feet so we never fall down ever.

Answer 3

I mean, the chances might not be high, but what if you are that hundreth person...i am sure the last guy to die on a roller coaster was thinking "we'll its a one and a million chance..."

anyway, my cousin died on a roller coaster. they went on the upside down part and he fell off, boop, dead

Answer 4

anyone can get hurt if they are careless and dont abide by the rules.

the odds of dying on a rollercoaster are in the millions.

your safer in a rollercoaster then in a car in my opinion

Answer 5

Generally when people die on roller coasters it is either because...

1) Some crazy freak accident that's like 1 in a hundreds of thousands chance.

2) The person has some weird heart/medical condition

3) They're chewing gum and then they choke

Don't worry. All roller coasters and rides are tested everyday before any park opens to make sure that they are running smoothly and everything is operating as it should.

Answer 6

we're not in the 1950's anymore, don't trip. is it like, your first time on a roller coaster?

Answer 7

You are more likely to get hurt walking across the street than riding a coaster. =]

Answer 8

you have a better chance of getting struck by lightning then dying or getting hurt on a rollercoaster.

Answer 9

very slim Unless you don't follow the rules or put your seat built and safety harness on. most parks close any rides that are having trouble. So they can fix the problems.  We went to The great Escape this past Sunday. The BobSlide got stuck. People were stuck. But no one got hurt. They got them down as quickly as possible.

Answer 10

One in a million people will die on a roller coaster. Here are the 3 reasons why.

1. They die of being scared

2. Something goes wrong with the ride

3. They unbuckle there seats then jump off.
