At least it wasn't anything at all serious. These things can happen with new rides. The passengers going to the hospital is just a precaution. I wouldn't worry about it.

Just after it opened this happened. that's ashame but atleast no one was seriously hurt. hopefully they will be able to open it soon with no further problems and i hope it doesn't hurt the park all that bad.

Hopefully this won't be too much of a nook in it's opening days. Bad press is...bad!

Yeah, but bad press for coasters is good. How many times have you been in line and heard one of the general public say, "I heard someone lost there head on this coaster,"?
That being said, I am sure this is minor. I said it before: This may turn out to be the new ride of the year. (...and no, I haven't forgotten that big 'ol thing in New Jersey)

That's surprising with Premiers track record. I've never heard of major problems with them.
Bad press usually only make for more hype. Like when Fabio got hit by the goose on Apollo it just made it into a huge joke that ended up advertising for the coaster.

....maybe you didn't, but must have forgotten about that big thing in Florida.

Ahhhh...you are right, it did slip my mind for a moment. So, I guess Kingda Ka slips to third? Fourth? Hydra is lookin' REAL good! Powder Keg just looks fun. It's not crazy tall or fast but it looks like a blast. (pun intended) I heard someone lost their head on that coaster!
