Teen dies after visiting Oceans of Fun
« on: September 02, 2019, 02:58:03 PM »
A 15 year old boy died after an incident at Oceans of Fun that sent him to the hospital back on the 24th. Sad news to hear considering the Schlitterbahn incident is still likely lingering in peoples minds as well. Granted this appears to have been a situation beyond anyone's control and not an OSHA safety violation or negligence of the park staff. I did notice a few emergency vehicles coming from the vicinity of the water park as I was in the dry side of the park that evening. This was why.

Sad to see that.  Heart breaks for the family, and for those at the park who tried to save him as well.  Things like that hurt.
This is a stick up!  Get it? Stick.... Nevermind, it's a train robbery.  I want everyone to get your hands up and act scared.
