Sad/crazy that stuff happens at places folks go to escape. I do have a new appreciation for the lengths UNI appears to go through to do their best to avoid anything happening. I recall on my first visit being super impressed by OPs at FJ. My daughter was just tall enough to ride. They checked her outside and were straight up with us that she appeared to be tall enough but they would have a better idea inside.
She had no problem with the stick they use were the queues come together before the sorting hat. Then, when we got up to the load area, they pulled her off to the right, had her stand against the wall...the guy checking her seemed to be talking to someone on those radios they wear, he kept checking, asking, listening, eyeing her...I have no idea what they have set up over there and maybe it was my imagination, but they gave her the green light and she got to ride...anyway, I precived the whole process as rather professionally handled.
But to start hearing about that water park...in hind site, it is easy for me to realize, well what good is netting and framing that is holding the netting up? I mean, at those kinds of speeds...and to hear the words 'Velcro seat belts'...just wow..
