A malfunction on a ride at Kentucky Kingdom, an amusement park in Louisville, Kentucky caused a 13-year-old girl’s feet to be severd just above the ankle yesterday at about 4:45 pm.

This is pretty scary 1. because its in my hometown and 2. 3 of my friends were in line behind the girl and saw it happen and they were really shaken up after they got home (naturally)

i rode this ride dozens of times, but even if it does open back up, im not sure i’ll ride it again.

You know they are going to sue the crap out of that park and that park won’t have a leg to stand on.

You know, that was pretty insensitive of me. This family is going to face huge medical bills and it will probably be some time before they are back on their feet.

Hey I’ve been there, I still have my feet though.

She may never get back on her feet.

Of course, it’s very likely that Six Flags will have to foot the bill.

Kinda toeing the line there aren’t you Stargazer?

Jeeze, you’re right.

We should just be happy she didn’t kick the bucket.

Now you are just sticking your foot in your mouth.

Okay, I can’t think of anymore. I’m stumped.

Call the toe truck you are finished.

You two are lucky that I don’t have the power to ban.
