Accident at Stampede
Sounds like the ocean motion ride fell off a track and there are many injuries. Sounds horrible ... anybody else know anything?
Edit: removed for being untrue.
Edit 2: many false stories as it all happened. Looks like it was the scorpion, 5 people are injured and one may be serious.

Correct me if I am wrong, is this not the Ocean Motion?
If this this came off its "track" um, that would be a disaster.

From Twitter:
Ocean motion ride at the stampede, a cart FULL of people fell OFF the ride... EMS on scene, ppl pinned under ride... Omg...
|
I don't follow rides anymore so I did a search. Is this the same ride?
There isn't any "tracks" but if that thing let go it can't be good.

edit:
I'll refrain from further spreading unconfirmed information posted to twitter.
At the point there's speculation as to what ride it even is.

Search up the #stampede hash tag, the topic is trending.
From what I'm seeing, there may not be anyone pinned underneath.

I remember at a party these 3 guys showed up totally gooned out of their minds and said they were late because they had to finish setting up a ride.
Except for roller coasters that are set up forever I never got on one since.

A twitter account I read said that a car flew off the crazy mouse roller coaster. I'm not sure anyone knows what's going on yet.
Edit: and some other people are saying a car flew off the top of the zipper.
