- An investigation is underway after a 6-year-old girl died on a ride at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park in Colorado. The child was riding the Haunted Mine Drop, which drops riders "110-feet inside the dark depths of Iron Mountain in what feels like a free-fall.” Walt Stowe, a spokesman for the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office, said that his agency is investigating the accident and opted to not give any additional information, according to the outlet.

“Just a seatbelt” kids that age don’t even drive around in just seat belts at that age.
Exactly
facts
That's for sure!
Exactly. Why was a child this small allowed to get on this ride?
6 year olds don't even drive!
I'm almost certain that fast drop rides like this isn't aimed for kids under the age of 10year...
So true
i’ve seen plenty of kids 10 and under in line for way larger drop towers, and grew up going on them with all my friends as a kid. if you meet the height requirement and want to ride, you can ride. if the ride wasn’t safe for small children, the park should have let them know.
@@chloewatson8275 that point is true but either may 6 years won't be very tall. But also your correct that the workers should of said worning either way.
@@bunnygirl3179 I was a tall 6 year old. We’ll have to see if she met the requirements for the ride, if the operators properly secured her initially and if the adult she was with allowed her to get on.
@@chloewatson8275 The minimum height requirement varies per park. Manufacturers give a recommendation, and can give some advice but it's ultimately the parks responsibility to uphold these rules. The minimum height can be for kids under 10, but it doesn't mean the manufacturer thought the same. It's just that it's technically possible. I think these rides really aren't aimed for kids that young, it's just that they can fit is all.
The fact they didn’t even care enough for the concern of the lady says a lot about why they wouldn’t care for the little girl. Obviously safety isn’t their top priority.
Why was a 6 year old on the ride
@@MarshalaYams because the ride operator let them on? kids go on way more intense rides all the time as long as they meet height requirements, if it wasn’t safe for a child her size the park should have let her known
Yeah but the lady could be overreacting. The first time I went on a big coaster (Leviathan) I thought that my restraint was coming undone, but in reality it was perfectly fine and the reason I thought it was coming undone was that it was my first time ever going on a big ride like that and I wasn’t really familiar with the feeling of airtime.
I've been on the ride, I'm pretty sure the one lady was over reacting. They check the seat belts on the regular. I honestly would not let a six year old ride it.
@@EndleTrance but that woman specifically had a bad seat belt
6 year old kids SHOULDNT be on this ride AT ALL. Don’t understand why she was in the first place
Facts!
Neither do I
That's what I thought too, this ride is way too much for a young child... Even if they meet the height restrictions, really unfortunate situation
Exactly!
IF A BLACK MOTHER PUT HER CHILD ON THIS RIDE, SHE WOULD BE PUT IN JAIL
Let’s be honest who would let a 6 year old girl ride the scariest ride in the USA
Exactly..she had no business on that ride. At 6yo she should be on a carousel or tea cups. That is an adult ride.
@@Citrusfruits50 yea too small probably why she flew out
I don’t know - i think the blame here is firmly on the park. If they told her she was big enough to ride, the parents had little reason not to believe them. They’re meant to be professionals and know what they’re doing.
@@laurenanderson7330 both at fault. Parents need to use common sense.
@@bear77h20 In some situations, yes. But clearly the parents were told it was safe to take their kid on the ride. We live our lives according to advice given to us by other people all the time. For example, safe infant sleeping positions have changed over the years - meaning parents went off the advice given to them that was actually wrong at one point. I don’t blame the parents here at all - they were told the ride was safe by its operators, and they should have been in the best position to know.
What a horrifying way to die, no child that young deserves to have their entire life taken from them in such a disturbing way. I hope the passing was quick and they didn’t have to suffer at all.
I highly doubt it was fast. Imagine falling from that high knowing you will die eventually.

Without further details I would expect that she slowly drowned on her own blood over 10-15 minutes.
from ABC: "Investigators found the child was sitting on the two seat belts instead of wearing them across her lap, and two newly hired operators never noticed despite doing checks. Investigators also found that an alarm system warned of a problem, but one of the workers reset the system and started the ride because they weren't trained well enough to know what to do about it."
Wooooow
Damn!
Well that's a fun bit of exposition.
This should be top

There’s a reason we have height, weight, and sometimes age limits, to prevent incidents like this.
Even then they still happen

who in their right mind thought that "feeling a bit more scary" is worth more than safety
This is why they have height requirements
@@Ihategobblegum A tragedy can still happen regardless of height requirements. The 6 year old must have met those requirements to be allowed on the ride in the first place. So that wouldn't have stopped the death from happening.
@@malinoscarsson9362 thats just pathetic of you.
You should be embarassed
@@keais4513 they’re being sarcastic
@@keais4513 Pretty sure that was sarcasm.
Not having shoulder harnesses to make the ride more scary is the stupidest justification I've ever heard
It doesn’t need a harness. The girl sat on her seatbelt, If the operator had checked her properly she would’ve been fine. There is a dozen drop towers with only seatbelt restraints, this is the only person who fell and that was only cause she wasn’t buckled to begin with.
@@RayDLX
I really hate it when someone dies because of someone else's negligence. Whenever I go onto a ride like these, shoulder bars or not, they ALWAYS have someone check the restraints, thank God.
No matter how much more scary or exciting it is without a shoulder harness, safety should always come first. R.I.P
Little girl should’ve been on the ride.
@@timothyhong2939 I think you meant shouldn't have?
@@Juscait lmao yes, wrong spelling
Although that is correct, it isn’t the theme parks fault. It is meant for larger and older people, not small children who can easily slip out of the seatbelt. The parents shouldn’t have let the child go in the first place.
@@cringeken5389 It is the theme park's fault if they allowed her. When I go to six flags every ride has a height and weight requirement. There's a ride called the acrophobia that drops vertically down like this and my parents wanted the whole family to ride it once but I wasn't allowed to because I didn't fit the height requirement. If the little girl was allowed on the ride then it's obviously because the park said it was safe to do so.
I can’t imagine the pain and horror that little girl went through just before her death. How very sad.
Yeah I've been on that ride before, the set up of the cinematic right before the drop is actually very scary. Just imagine a giant floating skull on fire coming at you saying you can join his dead brother down below....and then she did :(
@@SugaryDeath oh my gosh! How horrible. :’(
@@Sunnyydaisyy yeah if it wasn't for the circumstances I would say it was a good ride, they just need to make sure people stay safe first and foremost!

@@jerrynadler2883 ..Was it really? 🙁
This is sad. This little girl didn’t have to die like that. Safety first.
Agreed
Honestly I’m pretty sure she was to short to go on this ride I mean she’s 6
Yea
@@noahchien7001 yeah true
Safety is number 1 priority
I don’t think the lack of a shoulder harness is what caused this; the Tower of Terror at Disney World and Mission Breakout at Disneyland have the same kind of regular seatbelt restraints and both rides drop about 10 stories
EXACTLY. As a safety professional I think there's more to this story but it's not being said because of pending litigation. That's why the park just said that's sad and "accident" the idea that this ride drops into a mine shaft is super dangerous tho. Lots of natural reasons that was a bad idea like gases, moving sediment etc etc.
@@MrArtVein Yeah i think its more likely either a human error or something wrong with actual mineshaft
Considering the 911 call said 'party' and not 'person' means that the entire safety system failed and everyone was pitched from the car. The child left during the fall, likely striking the walls of the descent and going down the rest of the way like a pinball while the heavier adults were discharged at the bottom, surviving because they braked with the seat assembly only to fall out when it finally stopped.
@@amzarnacht6710 well I’ve heard the term party used for one individual as well
But what's the age requirements on those rides?
I hate darkness, and the feeling of falling. How do people enjoy that ride? I'm getting chills.

The airtime
It's just more thrilling about what's gonna happen next, nothing much. If you don't prefer those rides just go an a merry-go-round or something

@@Tyler-ce3um take your jokes elsewhere man a 6 year old just died
👉👈😬
Yup. Lawsuit on the amusement park is guaranteed.
Why lawsuit the park?? Is obviously this is parent fault
Safety is one thing, how was a 6 year old even allowed on a ride like this? I'm pretty sure, in my country, all the amusement/water parks have a certain underage rule.
Yeah, the U.S. usually has a height or weight restriction. I'm not sure what in the world was happening there though.
Yeah most parks I’ve been to it’s been a height requirement.
Her father signed the waver. And for some cuh'razy reason she reached the height required.
Tht's how..... Sucks n breaks my heart!
@@angelawilliams1453 Height requirement is 46 inches. (I just checked the website) Maybe it needs to be higher. Last big coaster I went on was a minimum height of 52 inches. This ride has a major drop with nothing but a seat belt.
Has nothing to do with age and has to do with height
They could at least get like a cross chest seatbelt that way you have this apparent “exciting” feeling but also the security of over the shoulder harness
It did. She sat on top of 2 seatbelts
I think a 6 year old shouldn’t even be on the ride in the first place 😅
Let me clear a few things up.
1. The investigation showed the rides safety systems tried to stop what happened but the operators over rode the warning. The ride is not at fault.
2. The girl sat on top of her seat belt, had she been strapped in with it, she would not have fallen out.
3. Age has nothing to do with rides, she met the height requirement, hence she was safe to ride.
4. The woman who claims she was too lose i’m sure was just over exaggerating. How many times have you rode a ride and said “omg I almost fell out afterwards” they’re designed to give airtime, doesn’t mean you’re gonna fall out.
Thank you someone with common sense! As long as you meet the height requirement you’re safe to ride, age plays no part in it. Also Tower of Terror and most 6 year olds would meet the height requirement
Everyone like this comment
she obviously was too loose if she fell out?? you just said she wasn't strapped in, hence her being loose.
I have a 6 year old son. He wouldn't have gone near that ride. This is heartbreaking. Prayers to the family.
Right. 🤔 I was thinking isn't that too young?. 😕😢
My thoughts exactly.
6 years old is way too young to be on that kind of intense ride.
I'm surprised the Amusement Park would even allow a child so young to be on there.
Still very sad. 😔
Agree my 11y old i wouldnt let
@@greenbutterfly9398 Why do you white people use so many emojis
mine would if it had an over shoulder harness, how did someone think just a seatbelt on a free fall ride is fine even on an adult, let alone a 6 year old.
They should've said she was too young. But the again money and satisfaction beats all forms of logic in some people
The again?
@@ManOfPillowDoom he means then dingus
@@ManOfPillowDoom dingus
What about the parents would you let your 6 y/o on this???
@@aggressivetoast hell no I can't even fathom how the parents thought about letting her on the ride. Probably wannabe "cool parents". Again, satisfaction beats all form of logic in some people.
Extra context for this, later investigations found that the girl didn’t actually have her seatbelts on, she was only sitting on top of them and the ride operators failed to notice. They didn’t do a proper seatbelt check on her.
my question is why didn’t the parents check to see if she was wearing her seatbelt? or why didn’t the little girl tell her parents she didn’t have them on? i blame the ride operators, the parents, and the little girl.
Yeah as a parent, i am always checking and double checking my kids seat belts or restraints on every ride.
Genuinely fearing for your life isn’t the type of “scary” people want when going on an amusement park ride
That's the idea though.
@@Ahmed-ob6ec Prove your point then. You may have the honor of playing Russian roulette for us all. Do it, unless you’re a hypocrite and coward.
@@warlordop713 That comment makes no sense. People go on rides every day which basically give them a near death experience because they enjoy the thrill and the adrenaline rush. Same thing with skydiving and extreme sports.
@@Ahmed-ob6ec I dont think people go for the near death experience, atleast me personally I go for the thrill not because Im trying to kiss death.
@@Ahmed-ob6ec I don't think many people really consider riding a roller coaster a near death experience. Near death experience means you almost died.
I would never put my six-year-old on that ride simply because it’s terrifying!
And DANGEROUS!!!
Right ? Makes me wonder is there just no safety ride height and or weight ? It’s pathetic that someone really let a “6” year old on a ride that dangerous in the first place. For instance if you go to kings dominion you’ll notice if a person is a certain height he or she can ride said ride or if he or she is too small then said person can’t ride.
Totally. I have a 5 year old and wouldn’t fathom putting her on something like this. She wouldn’t get enjoyment out of it
@@ogdistance9435 It just makes you wander what kind of parent want to terrify there’s six-year-old child this way. A six-year-old has No idea what they’re actually getting into. It was totally up to the parents to put them on this ride. I just don’t understand😡

Parents fault too
@@JC-xm9wb It was not the parents fault!
@@klaiellordez2054 it’s really nobody’s fault the more I think about it. Jus a terrible accident.
I disagree with you greatly.
I remember at 9 yrs old I was on a similar ride, at a six flags in Texas, with no shoulder straps/support. I found out I was thin enough to slide out of the waist strap/bar. Luckily, I gripped a bar in front of me at the big drop, but realized I could have flown out if I didn’t.
This makes me think this is a similar scenario.
My condolences to the family.
I don’t really understand why they give these jobs to teens or people who aren’t some type of expert. I’m curious to know what kind of training these ride operators get because how much could they possibly know about the ride unless they’re engineers.
I can’t believe a six year old was even allowed to get on a ride like this
For real. There's a roller coaster by my house that only has a lap bar, and even if you're a skinny adult, much less a 6yr old, it really feels like you're going to slip out on the first drop. That's like a tower drop ride with only seat belts? Ridiculous. Terrible design
You have to sign a waiver to even ride the ride too. I can’t believe the parents let her
You need to sign a waiver to get into the park. The waiver covers all rides even baby rides even if you fall walking.
My kid wasn’t even allowed on a tilt a whirl by herself. Shame on the operator who let her on.
@@msincredibelle shame on the operator and shame on the parents who lacked brain cells and decided to allow their kid to go on it.
Why did they even let the 6-year-old ride on the amusement park ride in the first place? But R.I.P to the 6-year-old-girl.

@Rik Mehta me too, but i had to pay her same as you did
@Rik Mehta what?
I experienced the same EXACT thing on universal studios jurassic park ride when i was a 13yo kid. All they have is a long bar that goes across all of the seats. So if one person is huge and youre small, youre screwed. That last drop was intense, and i legit thought i was gonna fall out. I dont know how no other kid has ever felt the same way.
You don’t need the bar to be touching you at all. The drop isn’t steep enough to pull you out of your seat.
@@alvarolopez6419 bruh my 13yo ass LEVITATED because there was enough room for one more of me to fit between me and that bar. If i hadnt held on to the bars on the back seat of the front row i wouldve flewn off that thing. That drop was absolutely steep. Anyone whos even only stood on the side to watch can see that it is
I live in colorado and have been on this ride and tbh it felt safe and it was really fun, but the reason of death was not the safety of the ride it was the operators malfunction
It’s so sad how children rely on adults to know better but most adults don’t and the children end up at risk or losing their lives. God bless you baby girl.
That's what I'm saying because of course the child is going to beg to get on but, you as an adult should say otherwise
@kron n a parenting mistake is letting your kid watch a scary movie or letting them eat too much candy…. Not letting them go on a sketchy ride at 6 years old and them dying.
How you gonna fault the parents when they went to a thrill seeking ride that was supposed to be safe this is why they have height and weight restrictions this is 100% the fault of the company.
@kron n of course they didn't want that to happen but damn! I dont know anyone who would let their 6 year old on that. And the ride operators shouldn't let young kids on that ride either.

Parents fault
The people who work there. They only care about their money.
So many kids die because parents subconsciously wanna kill there kids. Remember when that kid got eaten alive because his mom dropped him over an African wild dog exhibit.
As a former ride operator, they do not care. That’s one reason why I quit. I got rewarded for not putting a toddler on a giant roller coaster, this means that my coworkers were doing this so often that rewards needed to be given for not doing it. Also, 16 year olds should not be operating rides. They don’t understand the severity of the job

Because unfortunately, some people aren’t suited to be parents and fail to protect and teach their kids any better
Because dad signed the waver without reading it... "Naaa she'll be ok.. she can handle this. It's only lasts 3-4 secs" An extremely unfortunate reality has probably airshow hit home for the father. I feel absolutely horrible for the family and hope tht this is not really the case of this tragedy.
RIP beautiful little one
Not the parent it’s the workers they could easily say she’s not tall enough or something like that the parents didn’t know if she was too small for it they usually measure you at amusement parks
Gross negligence on the part of owner, for failing to provide shoulder belts. Moreover, how irresponsible to allow a six year old to ride, primarily on her parents side. It's called comparative negligence in legal terms. More accurately, child abuse.
When I was celebrating my 5th birthday at Disney world, my mother brought me to the tower of terror. Surely the ride isn’t as intense as this one but very similar, I nearly suffered a stroke.

@@jameshardly6074 well now, without life we couldn’t have death, without good we couldn’t have bad and so on. Hopefully this incident will bring across action from the theme park.

🗣📢PIN WORTHY!📌
There’s a reason why no one under like 4’5 can’t go on “intense” rides
Still parents fault
@Make it Happen sush
@Make it Happen ....how
And parents intentionally buy taller shoes for amusement parks 🥴
@Make it Happen i cant tell if ur joking or not 😭
it’s so sad i was on it exactly a year before she passed, it was the most horrific ride. we literally posted on our stories after saying we almost died
"A little bit more scary, a little bit more exciting."
More like a little bit more deadly, ridiculous!
I've never seen a ride like this without a shoulder harness, seems like someone was cutting corners for financial gain.
they said it was too make it scarier
You obviously never been on tower of terror at Disney
Nah can’t be for that reason. Shoulder hernesses aren’t that expensive.
Trump lost. Cope harder.
there were older ones that didn't but they learned there lesson that they needed to add them the hard way
“A little more exciting?” Jesus people, you don’t swing a real axe at kids in a haunted house to make it more exciting! Safety comes first!
That wasn’t the problem, it was letting a 6 year old ride it was the problem
nice one lol and your 100% right! like you know disney land tower of terror they have shoulder straps and i felt safe but no straps like that could have caused so many more deaths
It does make it more exciting, the rides been used 1000s of times so it's clear that's not the issue here. Putting a 6 year old with tiny legs on the ride when there's fully grown adults with big legs keeping the bar from holding her in is the problem. Put it like this, imagine parachuting in a steel ball with a window filled with foam compared to just parachuting.
Safety is the opposite of freedom.
@@Cavebuddycousin But nobody has died due to seatbelt malfunctions or it not being tight enough. The one death that I found was due to it being an old woman with a cardiac problem.
The fact that I left 4 days before this happened is so nervracking rip to the little girl she did not deserve this
as someone who felt like they where gonna fall out of a rollar coaster that had a straight drop down as was going like over 20 mph i can say i was gonna fall out if i didnt hold myself in poor girl had such a nice life ahead of herself
This is why I don't ride things like this. It's putting my life in the hands of people who want my money, while also doing something that requires a lot of expensive safety measures to be successful.
Yea reason why iv always hated roller coasters and never ride them and I never will
@@Lord_Itachi8758 But this isnt a roller coaster....
@@Lord_Itachi8758 ^^^
Odds of dying on an amusement park ride- 1 in 750,000,000
Odds of dying in a car accident-1 in 107
Well I rode it and it wasn’t actually as scary as you think I felt like the seatbelt was tight honestly
This is absolutely devastating. As a mother to a 9 year old girl, I can’t even fathom what the family is going thru. Why wasn’t there an age or height & weight restriction? What kind of employee thought it was a good idea to let a human that tiny go on? Prayers to the family 😔
I was 5 when I went on this ride. I was part the height restriction.
"What employee thought it was a good idea to let a human that tiny go on?".
More like "What *PARENTS* thought it was a good idea to let a human that tiny go on?".
@@macman975 both the parents & the employee.
Lol there is a height and weight restriction, but 1. Unless you’re obese you don’t have to worry about it.
2. I’m assuming she was forced by her mother and forcing the staff to go in the ride, when she was most likely under the height requirement. It’s possible but unlikely for it to be a seatbelt failure. We need to wait until Glenwood Caverns releases a statement on this after the investigation. As an amusement park enthusiast I can understand how you as a mother can be scared, but as long as your daughter meets the height restriction of a ride she goes on, it’s fine. I’ve been riding roller coasters since I was 6 and can easily tell you this is most likely a child forced to ride the ride when she’s too short, causing her to die. Mind you it’s a 1 in 24 million chance of being hurt, and an even higher chance of dying at an amusement park. I hope you understand.
Also as I reread your comment: The child’s mother was most likely a Karen, barking at the ride ops to take her on the ride. If this turns out on what I think happens, then the ride ops will most likely, wait- lemme rephrase that, WILL be fired. Then again it’s most likely not a seatbelt failure. But it’s not out of the question.
This is infuriating, imagine as a family going to a park to have a good time and leaving without one of your children...I cant even wrap my head around that
Man so sad breaks my heart.
oh my god as a father of daughters i am just filled with such sorrow for that family & that poor little girl who had her whole life infront of her. Age & Weight Limit must be strictly enforced globally on anything like this. Life is so precious. RIP
@@Xane_Dragon wow, you called someone grandpa because they want more safety measures to be taken in amusement parks that allow young children to go on their rides. How cool and edgy of you.
Please dont be like these stupid parents and take care of your children
@@Xane_Dragon get a life troll.
Well I'm not it's common sense that a ride like that shouldn't be for a six year old maybe her parents just wanted a free chdckt.
Simply don't take your child this young to stupid stuff like this. Children can have good fun in normal activities but not a dangerous one. A good father knows best and immature boy will find this fun. Seriously!
I wouldn't let my 6 year old on this ride. How heartbreaking. Rip
My condolences for the family of that angel 💔
Just from the video footage, I can't, for the life of me, imagine why a 6 year old would be on this ride. Breaks my heart everytime I hear stories like this.
Any 6 year old would have been too small for the ride. I would sue for negligence against the park
Ditto 😇💙😇
@@cteenie24 First the parents shouldn't even a allowed her to get on that ride.
@@sandygreen8257 yea, everybody be blaming the park. Bruh where the parents at. I wouldn't even let my little brother ride that thing, let alone my child.
@@JoeKhazama On top of that, the parents signed a waiver! Come on!
RIP to the little girl who lost her life. It’s negligent on both parties.
@Rik Mehta why do you troll this channel every day?

Absolutely True!
Exactly
How does a 6 year old even have it in them to go on this ride
My heart sunk to my stomach.. Why it's always best to be safe..
This ride has a height requirement of 46•”. Average 6 year old height is 42”-49”….
they need to start considering a person's weight, seriously
My son is 4 years old and 46”
We had a similar ride at my amusement park (it has since been removed) I remember being 13-15 and STILL not being tall enough for the ride. It was shorter AND had a harness unlike this ride. I’m pretty sure the height requirement was 58-60”
Baffles me that a 6 year old was considered tall enough for this ride, or anybody of that height regardless of age.
I was tall and thin as a kid, lap bars were the only thing on most rides. I never felt safe! Always hooked my arms under the bar because of the gap.
Sorry that this happened my thoughts and prayers with the family ❤️
Their screams sounded horrifying. May the girl Rest In Peace.
Those were canned screams - pretty much every enclosed free fall ride sounds like that.
It wasn't until people *emerged* screaming that those outside began to catch on something had gone wrong.
Huh ? Those weren't screams that actually happened when the accident occurred .
@@exitscreaming there were screams that happened on her death too
To put a 6 yr old kid on such a ride is CRIMINAL Idiocy!!!
"feeling a bit more scary" What the heck? Is that even right thinking? Now you should be scared for your reputation.
WHAT THE HECK IS A 6YR OLD DOING ON THAT RIDE?!!
Probably fit the height requirement.
It’s almost like the Tower of Terror at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. I rode it back in 2018, and even I think that ride would be a little intense for a 6-year old.
Except Disney does care about the safety of its guests and regularly maintains their rides
at least Disney has a lot of futures for safety even on Tower of Terror / Guardians of the Galaxy's if you do anything shady they see it and take action
But Disney have artificial beach whose lakes have hidden alligators that have killed
And Disney Cm’s actually stop and measure the child before they get in line or before they get into the cart.
@@dreamer6508 yeah it’s called nature ❓
I have never really liked thrill rides even as a kid and then a story like this comes along almost making it impossible to change my mind.
I’m just trying to think how it would feel to fly down a pitch-black cave at full speed when I was 6.
I have been a ride operator myself and she probably wasn’t tall enough and were standing on her tip toes to cheat the ride operators. It happens all the time and is usually encouraged by their parents.
Exactly
Usually encouraged by the lack of care or insight by the machine operator
@@cosseybomb ive never seen a ride operator encourage it. Ive only ever seen ride operators deny riders to be on the safe side.
I've always seen ride operators follow the rules. They're only workers. A 6 yr old is the parents responsibility
Or put extra socks or fabric in their shoes to make them seem taller.
