Turns out the people who made it were coked out business guys with no experience building rides. They're also probably going to prison.

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

They put literal metal bars in the flight path. If you were intentionally designing a ride to kill some fraction of a percent of riders that's something you'd do.

So it was Elected Officials day and I was working at the airport downtown in KC at the time so I got see all the Schlitterbahn execs come into town then beat feat asap, like within an hour of that poo poo happening. They all left super fast so they didn't have to deal with the fallout, like you mother fuckers.

By putting metal bars at head height, probably

they decided trying to intercept 500+ pound airborne rafts with metal bars, coverups, and intimidating victims was a better course of action than paying real designers/engineers/people with any knowledge of safety regulation

Even a well-designed water park is an absolute cesspool and any parent that takes their child there clearly does not care about said child's well being
