Boy dies after spin on Disney ride

Hm... I think the engineers building this thing is also a bit responsible, don't you think?

[Jessterw]

How would the engineers be responsible? The ride did not malfunction or perform in an unusual way. Placing responsibility on Disney would be slightly understandable as a child of that size should never be allowed to ride something like that, but even then the parent should have thought twice about it. Placing blame on the engineers would be irresponsible in itself and another slide down the slippery slope we have fallen unto already.

Responsibility number one is on the mother, then Disney for allowing the mother + kid in.

You can't help ppl that do not have the brains to think for themselves. Disney should have known better.

No offense, dude... but shouldn't you be tanking up on sleep? Any minute now Trina and the little one will be home from the hospital and you will be sooooooo beat.

Sleep? Is that when your eyes become blood-shot and you start believing the nutters?

Oh and they've been home since Sunday (same as me). So I'm already sooooooo beat

When I was 6 I went on some spinning drum ride and got so dizzy I threw up. I think adults just tend to forget that smaller children are not as able to acclimate themselves to such conditions as grownups are.

Actually Julie read some of the doctor's report and there was something else wrong with the kid, they're just not 100% clear what. If the gravitron hadn't brought it out, the plane ride home might have.
