According to witnesses, the lap bar was secure in the station, most likely the problem was due to body type. You can be overweight and ride, but it all depends on how you're shaped.

If you're top heavy and the restraint is on your stomach (which seems likely) it was just a freak accident because this ride is known for it's high negative g forces). You're supposed to be strapped in by your thighs, but when the ride threw her up, her body shape changed due to the forces and she was thrown out.

“He was basically nonchalant,” Brown said. “He was, like, ‘As long as you heard it click, you’re fine.’ Hers was the only one that went down once, and she didn’t feel safe. But they let her still get on the ride.”

This makes it 100x worse.

Tragic. RIP and this is why I always get hesitant before going on a roller coaster.

I feel bad for the staff member. Everyone is gonna blame him for her death when he probably told her exactly what he is trained to say, and if this woman really didnt feel safe she could have gotten off.
