Hmmmm....I hope the guy's ok, but it seems like it might be serious since they're not giving anymore details. If the injuries were minor, I'd imagine that they'd want to say it so as to not alarm anybody.

It was probably in a loading/unloading area. I highly doubt he was under the tracks and got his by the coaster at full speed. Who knows though.

I can confirm it was running this evening when I was at IOA to catch a Sinbad show. Really hope the Tech from DD will be okay.

The rumor in our newsroom is that he got hit in the head by the coaster going full speed, and that he is in critcal condition.

Wow. That's scary. Hope he ends up OK. Why was he in a position for that to happen though?
