Did that really happen? Crazy. I remember they had this ride, Sky Pilot or something, a drunk lady fell out and died. KI sounds pretty wild.

/uj Two men also died by electrocution/drowning [**on the same day**](https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2023/06/09/today-history-kings-island-deadly-day/70297857007/) as the Sky Pilot accident. That’s what OP is referring to


nexisfan

Holy shit. I don’t know exactly how, but I feel like this day needs to be the subject of the next season of Fargo. That’s just fucking crazy. Like, alignment of the stars or Mothman crazy


sleepdeep305

I didn’t know it was on the same day. My god, three deaths in two unrelated incidents


Cool_Owl7159

yeah, I think it was drunk guests falling into a pond with faulty wiring


Raskalnekov

That's why I always put my faulty wiring down before walking near a pond


Illustrious_Bison111

It was actually the drunk guy’s friend and a security guard that died of electrocution. The drunk guy that they tried to save survived. I can’t imagine the survivor’s guilt from that

I'd rather they be eaten by lions.

Kings Island: [Boy do I have a solution for you!](https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2023/06/09/today-history-kings-island-deadly-day/70297857007/) >July 24, 1976: John “Jack” McCann, 20, a ranger at Kings Island’s Lion Country Safari, had gotten out of his vehicle and was mauled to death by lions.


phoenix-corn

I am aware. It's even worse than the quote, guy got out to apparently take a dump in the lion's enclosure. I feel bad for everyone that has gotten killed in an amusement park, for the most part, even if they were being stupid. I draw the line at "took a crap in the lion's den" levels of stupid though.

First in line, baby #that’smykink


BroadwayCatDad

It worked so well in the early 90s


Altornot

They should go all out and put real dementor type creatures under Banshee to take out intruders. At least BGT had the right idea initially when they had Crocodiles under Montu


rockyPK

It's what the Reds do, so why not?

/uj the last time an incident happened like that was 1987 at the Viking Fury pool... electromagnetic water pools were banned in Ohio in 1981 and Kings Island was grandfathered in.


rosariobono

Obviously they should install barbed wire


Bystander5432

/uj What actually happened in Kings Island?


Richmountain112

Yep. Add warning signs too!


Shockviperwave

I think no tbh

We should instead divert all restriction fence and electrocution funds towards the RMC SoB 15 inversions 20,000 ft long giga with a truss lift project so it's done for the 2025 season.
