    Hopefully with the new company merging with Six Flags, they’ll start making improvements to the part. What also has to happen is the area around the park needing to be improved. There are a lot of roach motels, flop houses, and seedy establishments. Not to mention a rough neighborhood is not far away.

    The reason the rafts started flowing away was likely due to the operators E-Stopping the ride, which is done when people fall into the water, when a E-Stop happens it cuts power to the pumps which results in the water flowing back into a retention pond. And watching the video its easy to tell the raft was taking on water, however, the trough of those rides is so shallow even if a raft sinks it will just stick to the bottom and you can easily stay inside the raft and be secure. The passengers did not do that which resulted in them ending up in the water, which made one of the ride operators E-Stop the ride, which caused the water to start moving back towards the retention pond. If that kid had not been saved by the other person, that would have ended a lot worse.
    Long story short, stay inside ride vehicles unless an operator tells you to leave.

      Exactly. That's why the rafts moved backward. They just float back toward retention or til they bottom out. Whole cause of the deal was the boat stuck in the middle from having a burst bladder. The boat has other bladders that kept it afloat. When more than 2 boats got stuck there, the weight of the pushing rafts against the stuck raft probably lifted it causing it to take on water. Ride should have been estopped the min the 3rd boat got hung up in there and an operator should have been there to calm the riders and explain that their boats would float backward etc etc

      @@parker02311 Those are all facts that we know, and most importantly Six Flags know, but not the guests on the ride. They were in a situation that to an untrained eye seemed dangerous. The park needed to make an announcement to the people on the ride letting them know to stay inside the raft and that the situation was under control. For all they knew the water was deep and the boat could capsize.

    On Roaring Rapids, the boat that was stuck also had a section of the raft that was deflated which played a part in the raft getting stuck in the first place. Only one section was deflated so the raft wouldn't have sank but you can see in the video the raft is very close to taking on water where the step is that the people start exiting from. Now take that into account... You're stuck and have been for quite some time, your boat is about to start taking on water and no one from the park has even addressed the situation or given you instructions on what to do. Of course people are going to panic.

    At this point with the arrival of Neo Six Flags aka Cedar Fair, I'd offer Ron McKenzie the park back. The man made Fiesta Texas the park it is today that Jeffrey Siebert has continued. If he was able to improve it for a period, he should be able to get Six Flags Over Texas back to a decent level again since he already knows the problem areas, and he had plans that were cut short.

    The Superman video was an optical illusion. With how far away the people were from the ride and the position of the riders made an illusion that someone was hanging from the seat. After the ride lowered in the video you could clearly see the rider sitting properly in the seat.

    You're wrong on Roaring Rapids. Before a boat gets stuck that long, you send a ride operator to keep guests calm. These riders know this ride killed someone in a very similar situation. After there are six boats in the area one operator comes casually walking up with a ring buoy. Then just sits it on the ground. When a ride calls the office it takes a while for maintenance to get there. The dispatches on this ride is super slow. If you have six boats there the boat on the point has been there a looooooong time. The riders know, it was all over the news again and again, that a boat flipped and drowned someonein a similar situation. What do you expect when there are no operators in sight. Others were fortunate not to drown to death too. Wouldn't be surprised if the people trying to get on the dock were non swimmers. I've worked on one of these at a different theme park. Couldn't believe this video.

      How many rafts do they run at a time? If you're sending rafts away and they're not returning, eventually you run out of rafts to send. Surely that's a clue that there's something wrong?
