Description
The operators of a free fall ride in Orlando, Florida, said they will begin the process of dismantling a ride next week, almost a year after a St. Louis teen fell from the ride to his death.
According to a statement from a lawyer for Orlando SlingShot, the operators are working with an amusement park company to "coordinate the deconstruction" for the 400-foot-tall Orlando FreeFall ride. The statement said a crane will arrive in the week of March 14 and the deconstruction process will last through the next week.
"We hope to have the ride fully deconstructed before the anniversary of Tyre Sampson’s tragic death, and we will continue to work in that direction and give timeline updates as they are available,” the statement said.
