| Roller Coaster injuries
How many of you have sustained an injury on a coaster, minus headaches. Note: I forgot to put havent been injured on there, so just use other and reply with "have not been injured." Last edited by coasterguy1; 03-31-2003 at 11:03 PM. |

Nope, never been injured unless you count a little bit of spine jarring from a couple of coasters or a mild headache (same coasters). Don't know anyone that's ever been injured on a coaster either.

I've gotten bruises on my thighs a couple of times because of being thrown up into the lapbar. I cut my knuckles once because I was hanging on to the bar on the back of the seat in front of me and whenever there was airtime my knuckles scraped against the edge of the seat causing me to bleed.

My inner knee/thigh area got bruised on a small non-looping Canadian coaster. The joint that allows the lapbar to pivot kept banging against my knee (or vice versa )

I had a pretty bad bruise on bnoth my shoulders after riding Viper at SFGADV. Of Course even a bad bruise isn't serious, but it hurt the whole day, and the bruise stayed there awhile.

One time, on RnRC, I attempted to put my hands up on the launch, only to have my left arm get wedged in between the harness and inside of the coaster. I was in a terrific amount of pain, and had a large black bruise for several days. I didn't complain though... it is my own stupid fault for trying to put my hands up on that one.

I got a headache from "Skulljammer", and then some rides with tight OTSRs have given me a slightly achy chest, but nothing major.

I have gotten a few bruises here and there, nothing much. That Kong does beat the crap outta me I gotta tell you that! Nothing major, I cant see getting a severe injury that common on Roller Coasters, proabobly more likely to be injured walking in a big mob when the park opens.

My shoulder got beat up and bruised pretty badly on Manhatten Express. My shoulder hurt the whole week I was in Vegas.

Once I got inside a Pinfari Looping coaster and in one part my head got slamed to the side unnaturally and I had pains for several weeks. On Vekoma SLC I got hit in the neck on one of the inversions but I knew its a rough ride and I paid the price for not holding as I should.

The worst injury I ever sustained due to a roller coaster or thrill ride was a broken rib with courtesy of the Grand National. That hurt for weeks.. ![]() I get the occasional headache after riding El Condor, and off course a KMG Tango hurts like hell. But nothing can beat the Grand National.. |
