Can confirm in X2 there's a nasty head bump near the end of the ride (ca. June 2026) that can catch you if unprepared, didn't remember it from previous seasons, probably needs extensive maintenance. Nowhere near rough enough to cause issues unless you had a previous condition.

The second of the two riders is currently in a coma, and Six Flags reportedly has only offered her food from McDonald’s.

This is the wildest tidbit. What? Why? How?

Six Flags has defended the coaster by pointing out there is signage warning customers “there are inherent risks” in park rides and that X2 is regularly tested and meets industry safety regulations. The company’s attorneys have argued that forces generated by the ride are not strong enough to cause a brain injury in a “normal” rider if the ride is used “as instructed” (in at least one case, the park’s attorneys said a rider’s injury was due to her negligence).

I want them to define normal here. Because you clearly haven't tested it on every body and every height.

Yeah no thanks I'll pass on any roller coaster.

Aw they shut down the suicide coaster!

Yeah I don't fuck with roller coasters

But that dancing old guy is having so much fun!
