Was 14-Year-Old Who Died at Orlando Amusement Park Too Heavy for Ride?

- Tyre Sampson, the gentle giant who plunged to his death at an amusement park in Orlando, Florida, stood at 6 foot 5, and weighed over 300 pounds. The 14-year-old had reportedly been turned away from at least two other rides at the park because of his size. The accident happened at ICON Park, where the 430-foot FreeFall ride is a popular attraction. In Europe, the maximum passenger weight on the ride is 287 pounds; in the US, there is no maximum weight restriction.
This shows that if they tell you you're heavy for something don't take it personally. It's for you're health and safety.
Too bad he wasn't told that.
@Bernie Gores exactly I totally agree with you
@Bernie Gores let’s not do that bro. Why’re you bringing racism into this the kid literally fell to his death. It’s not the time for your ignorance.
After the harness wouldn't fit all the way down to his crouch because of his abdominal mass he should have told his homies see y'all when y'all come down! I understand he wanted to ride and to fit in!
a kid died and you Americans still found a way to bring race up. what a joke.
He was probably so excited to be able to finally get on a ride after being turned down so many times. This breaks my heart and I cannot imagine how the mother is feeling
He was turned down twice, since when was a couple the equivalent of “so many”, dude should’ve taken a hint.
@@runsoncaffeine dude he was 14. And yes 2 can feel like so many when you’re a kid watching your friends have fun and you’re told no. He should have taken what hint? Im sure he was told no Bc of his weight his whole life. He was very aware of his size I assure you.
Terrible to say but maybe she's thinking I could have made sure he lost weight so he doesn't die eventually if not then
@@chanabayla1823 he's a football player
@@Mjones5018 so just because he was 14 you’re gonna ignore safety regulations?
14 Years old. I couldn't imagine being in heaven this young age 😭

@@kamazenmickeyRomans 10:9-11 says, "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved".
I blame the ride operators for this, they should've made him get off when they saw the harness wouldn't fit or even lock for that matter. I can't imagine how his family, friends, or the person that was sitting next to him must be feeling. RIP
He probably called them racist.
Exactly, there's absolutely NO WAY the ride operator's didn't see he was clearly over weight. Like wtf does training for this job involve? B/c I know damn well they went over all aspects of this ride & The weight limit in the ride manual isn't there for decoration
I totally agree...so idiotic and terrible mistake..I'm glad I haven't seen it.. I couldn't handle it or get it out of my mind.......God bless them all..
@@reginafontenot600 Why assume something that could be COMEPLETELY wrong? A boy’s life was lost and your worried about the fact he was black when that had nothing to do with it? Shame on you.
@@narwhalesdie9226 Well yeah, Black Lives Matter so of course his race will be mentioned.
If he was that’s still their fault for not taking the proper precautions and now his family is left to suffer. He trusted them but they didn’t do their job and failed him.
Exactly
More of both at fault, big boy couldn’t read?? Obviously there were weight limits on the signs. He knew he was too big and so did the employees. His appetite failed him
@@cashmartin91 Didnt you watch the video - where he was there was no limit. So no signs. And the operator was trained that way as well.
And the workers weren't shock or anything as if this isn't the 1st time it happen.
Sounds like every hospital I've been to on Long Island
In the photo shown at the 1:07 time stamp, the restraint is OBVIOUSLY at an angle. How could it have been in the locked position?? Look where the bottom of the restraint is on Tyree compared to the fellows next to him. Tyree fell out feet first. He could not possibly have been secured in that seat.
I think you might be right. I've been on these types of rides before and those things usually stay down if they're all the way down. For that guy, it really didn't seem secure enough.
yeah, the top wasnt even touching his shoulders which means the portion that goes between your legs to lock is not secured.
If the worker would've stopped talking with the other riders he would've checked his side it was obvious that his restraint wasn't fully secured compared to his friends
Yes, the angle of the restraint looks like it give a lot of space for someone to slip out of the bottom as the picture shows.

This is an important lesson the public must learn about amusement park rides
The ride itself was perfectly safe, the kid was too big to ride it, and the operators still let him on.
How did he fall out if the harness was still locked and secure when the ride ended?
Idk but when I saw the full uncensored video he fell so quick and hard onto the ground there was literally blood on the ground
I am 6'5" 240 lbs. and when I tried going on a ride, they refused me because I was told that I was too big.
That’s what’s supposed to happen
Thank goodness they told you that.
Why would you knowingly try to get on?
Unfortunately he probably was, but it was the operator’s responsibility to know and clearly state the rides limitation. If simple things like elevators do so should this, the park is at fault.
While I agree it should be the operator's responsibility to follow the ride's guidelines and rules, there isn't a weight limit for the ride in the US. The operator wasn't at fault here. The government needs to step-up and regulate amusement rides.
To play devil's advocate, the park was following the instructions from the rides manufacturer which gave no weight limit, according to this article. So on paper the park didn't do anything wrong. Clearly there was some limit that was exceeded. My uneducated guess, but being 6'5" probably had as much to do with it as his weight. Poor kid, he was way too young.
@@fairytaillight1453 The last thing we need is the US Government over-regulating amusement park rides.
You must not hear correctly lol
There isnt a weight limit for them to enforce
And sounds like he put his harness on wrong himself
Seems to be personal error not ride operator error
It's sad
But being that big
And being turned away from other rides
He should of considered the personal risk being that size and going on rides
Good point. Elevators always state maximum weight capacity. And restaurants usually state maximum number of people capacity. Signage stating limitations or capacity is not a new concept. I hope amusement parks learn from this. It’s not that hard to implement.
My condolences and prayers to the family.
To anyone from the uk wondering the kid was 23 stone at 14 years old. The fact he was even allowed on the ride is an amazement
Oh thank you
23 stone???
You mean KG ???? 🤦🏽♂️🤣
@@umairahmad4711 stone is what people in the uk use to measure weight. so he is 146 kilograms.
Oh thank you he was just over the weight limit for the ride I’m from Uk we have signs on rides for weight limit why can USA have them
My brother is a big guy like this dude but he’s still young. He just grew like a tree on steroids and he can’t help it. He’s still growing so when I heard this story my heart broke. Gentle giant literally explains my brothers too so this broke me. ☹️💔
damn- I know this is really rare & unlikely but whenever I go to a ride this is my biggest fear, this was really tragic, prayers to his family.
Still heat breaking 💔 Rest in your Father's Hands young man.
I remember I went to Universal Studios a while back with my friends after graduating. There were a few people who were disrespectful to the staff due to the fact they couldn't get on a certain ride. They caused a big scene until a Supervisor had to come and remove them from the area.
Now you do see signs about the height/weight limit. But some people ignore it and think they're entitled to ride anything just because they spent money to enjoy a good time. In this case it's sad because a life was lost.
So true. Last time I went to Universal Orlando I was waiting in line for Rip Ride Rockit and had to watch an employee try to get the safety constraint to lock for this obese girl. It didn’t click so they had to tell her to get off. I can tell you now if they let her stay on the ride anyway, she would’ve plummeted 167 feet on the first drop.
Shut up
I love carnivals, I’ve loved them since I was little. I’ve never ridden that particular ride, because I’ve always had a slight fear of extreme heights, and that sudden drop looked to be too much for me. But seeing that devastating video… how sad. I can just imagine how it looked to that young man to be released from his safety seatbelt and be suspended in air for that few seconds before plummeting down.. in that moment, I’m sure he knew he wouldn’t make it. That feeling of shock, horror, and doom… that happened so quickly, he didn’t even have time to process all those emotions before he was just gone. This truly is heartbreaking to see. My deepest condolences to his family, I hope they sue the life out of that carnival and/or the ride owners. RIP.
It’s not a carnival it’s a park
I read on another video that he had fainted like a lot of people do on those types of rides. So when the harness didn't go all the way and secure the pelvic area, and when he fainted he let go of the hand bars too, so he slipped right out. I pray it's true and he was passed out and never knew a thing.
If that doesnt make you lose weight nothing will.
Well, don't eat too McDonald's, Taco Bell, or KFC for dinner before going to an amusement park.
Heartbreaking he seriously could've been in the NFL he was big enough to play at 14.
If danger is a thrill, and its a thrill to put oneself in danger, well...
i can’t imagine what would’ve went through his mind while he was falling. rest in peace.
He probably had a heart attack. ...damn shame.

Why did the crew let him ride it?! You can see the harness didn't cover his whole torso. Poor kid..
not only that but there were other rides that said he couldn't get on bc he was overweight
Did this have to be posted on April 1
Oh no
Imagine dying on a ride and then people say it's your fault because you're too big
(he was technically too big but rides like this should have many, MANY safety precautions)
This is why I don't go on amusement rides, when it goes wrong it's usually fatal.
Why does every inside addition journalist sound excactly the same 😂
He should never had been allowed on the ride because of his size. He wouldn’t known his wait would had killed him is this way. He was a child excited to go on the ride.
They should’ve checked his weight
I remember several years ago I went to six flags over Texas with some family, I’ve always been tiny, like tinyyy, I’m very petite and I guess short. Currently I’m 23 and weigh maybe 100lbs. Anyways, I rode on the titan with my aunt who is and was overweight. All the titan ride had/has? was a metal bar that comes down from in front of you towards your stomach, so there was a very decent gap between my body and this “safety bar”. That was a rollercoaster, not a dropping.. rollercoaster/ride, I was a teen then, I remember holding on to that bar for dear life. I had both of my tiny arms around that bar, like WRAPPED around that bar. Literally, so so literally, had I not held on to that bar, I would have fallen off, like flew out of that seat and landed wherever. I’m absolutely terrified of rollercoasters, I don’t like heights to begin with.. but add that with man made machines with half ass safety mechanisms, I’m out. May this young man rest in paradise, and may God heal and mend his parents and loved ones souls.
Same happened to me. I am petit
This is just devastating. I work nearby and the towers have been dark every night and I personally hope they remain that way for good.
At least he didn’t fall from all the way up their
When I saw the picture of him in the collar restraint, the first thing I looked for was the secondary fail-safe restraint (like a seatbelt clipping the collar to the seat frame). I was shocked not to see one. The fact that there wasn't one is baffling and this ride would never pass a safety inspection in my country. An accident like this was inevitable.
That’s so dumb. The whole park should be fined. A boy like that with gigantism shouldn’t be allowed on a ride like that. He is an endangered meant to not only himself, but to everyone else on the ride. Shame on them
he should atleast experience fun stuff like other people
You heard crack noise when he fall LMAO
He caused a earthquake
LMAO
What actually happens to the human body when you fall from that height with that much weight?
Imagine sitting on a ride not knowing your about to die 😞 R.I.P tiary Samson
I can't even begin to imagine how the people next to him felt. Absolutely heartbraking. My condolences to the boys family and I hope things get better
Even
his friends obviously devasted, but another person a few seats down yelled "WOOO" after the fall and was just whining to be let off
probably like "darn"
nice bot
They probably didnt even care and were just a bit shocked. One guy literally shouted "WOOO" as the kid is laying there with a pool of blood forming under him
One of my biggest fears is taking my kids somewhere to have fun and coming home without them. I can't even imagine the guilt and pain. So sorry for this young man and his family.

It’s the ride operators fault, he/she of all people should be able to tell right away that the man was too big to be secured onto the seat
I'd rather you hurt that young man's feelings and tell him he's too big for the ride instead of the situation we have now where a family have to make funeral arrangements and say goodbye to a loved one 🙏🏾
I had to cancel my 6flags an hurricane harbor season pass cuz im too big to ride damn near every ride. My family of 8 have season tickets. Once I had walk down all those stairs by everyone because of this. I did it with pride cuz I'd rather be alive than a couple secs of thrill.

He was just a child at 14. Reading some of these comments, some of you lack empathy. I can't imagine how scared he must have been. May his soul rest in peace, and I pray his family finds peace in their hearts.
Your right
I lack empathy for the ones who oversaw the ride’s functionality, not the kid who was given permission to do something.
14 year olds don't have common sense? Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming the boy (well, not only him), but when he realised that shoulder savety thingy wasn't properly and savely locked, he should have exited the ride right away. I've visited amusement parks when I was a teen a lot. I always made sure I was savely seated and secured before the ride started. Especially on rides like this one. But, I always cared for my life more than the adrenaline kick and peers pressure. I'm a woman tho, so maybe that also makes a big difference.
And I'm sure a 14 year old TEEN (he was no kid no more) experiencing such a situation is no different than an adult doing so.
@@Oozaru85 he wanted it too much, I’d know better myself. Ur point stands
I feel empathy for him, but I blame his parents for insisting even though he was too heavy.
So upsetting. Every parents worst nightmare. Heart goes out to them
He was heavy af other wirds over weight it was obous from first video .

This is the saddest thing ever. This was preventable. I can’t imagine how traumatic this was for everyone on that ride, let alone his friends and/or family that were there with him. It’s so unfair - he just went to have a fun time. My heart aches for his loved ones.
Yes it could have been prevented but if they had kept turning him away imagine the backlash that would go down. The staff would be called racist fatphobic and this and that its unfortunate people blame only the staff.
@@MrYeet-im3ob you make it sound like he was going to shoot up the amusement park for getting turned down for his weight. They have guidelines to follow and i feel they knew he was a little big and still let him ride.
@@tchtchtch2001 when does he imply that anyone was going to do anything close to shooting up the amusement park? He said what’s true if he got turned down too many times, and if he was part of the lefts agenda it would have turned into a race/fatphobic thing and I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up at trial trying to sue the amusement park.
@@tchtchtch2001 he never said anything about shooting anyone. WTF is wrong with you?
Everybody has a responsibility to keep themselves healthy and the operators had a responsibility to not let him on the ride but because our cancel culture nowadays, they would've been called racists, bigots or fatphobes because they could have saved his life.
Most know if Your to big You can’t ride. An so if he was turned down 2x did his mother run up? No so stop assuming. What happened they adjusted the sensors to fit larger passenger. It gave a false sensor red light showing it’s okay an locked but they the operators adjusted that. In the pic You clearly see his harness is higher than others.
For a child to pre-decease their parents due to a freak accident is unimaginably traumatic and too much to bear. Respect to this teen.
It really is cruelly unfair to lose a child.
rip to him but this was no freak accident
How was this a freak accident? It was negligence by the ride operators and himself. This could have been avoided if one of the parties acted on the potential risk.
@@ismaelsarabia405 'Accident' definition per Oxford languages: an unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury.
Even if there was negligence, both parties did not intend on or expect the accident that occurred. By your logic, there is no such thing as a car accident because a car accident necessitates a violation by at least one of the drivers. Accidents do not rely on random or faultless conditions in order to occur.
@@HailAres so did you happen to just gloss over the word freak? Here's the definition. Freak accident (plural freak accidents) An incident, especially one that is harmful, occurring under highly unusual and unlikely circumstances. Definitely not unusual or unlikely when you're not strapped in right. It's actually unusual and unlikely to make it out alive.
2 factor safety mechanisms should be required in all roller coasters and theme park attractions that involve a vehicle.
Also weight limits.
Yes I would feel safer
I also think this about school busses
This is Florida, capitalism rules all. I’m pretty sure you try to put restrictions and they’ll sue you.
My harness demagnetized on a ride and I would’ve flew out if it didn’t have a belt.. this comment needs more attention!!
I’m 30; and he had half a foot and 100lbs on me. This kid was an absolute unit. The ride operator should have known better.
At 5’4 and 250 lbs I was declined a ride like that because my boobs were too big it was embarrassing but it was needed.
yea
There was no weight restriction so the operator isn’t at fault maybe the kid or the parent should of took noticed when he got declined twice before
So should the people that took the kid to the park. But no responsibility for them right.
He was too big for 99% of the rides he was 6'5" and over 300 pounds
His height alone would not allow the harness to close properly
I just remembered this story, This was about 2 days before the accident. I remember flying to Orlando and so exited to ride all these rides at Icon Park. I saw many videos about this ride and hearing about how it was 400+ feet above. My dad told me that I shouldn’t go on this ride but I refused to listen to him. Then 2 days later, I heard of this accident where this poor 14 year old teen fell from the ride. After that, I was traumatized and refused to ride at any of the rides at Icon Park. It just killed me that they couldn’t See that Tyre was obviously too big for this ride. His seatbelt was on his shoulders which means he’s obviously too huge for the ride..
Moment of silence for this poor boys death.
Children should listen to their Dads advice
@@December20th Crazy how that happened, but at the same time, it is expected. Getting on a 400ft hypercoaster is different from getting on a 400ft drop tower due to the lateral vs horizontal forces varying differently. The Drop Tower pulls up on your harness while getting launched down, and the Hyper-coaster pulls you back into your seat while the harness does its job at extra support, instead of it being stressed with excessive vertical forces.
*loud, wet, squishy diarrhea fart sound*
This is horribly tragic. This young man just wanted to have fun and due to improper protocol, he lost his life. I've been in a park and witnessed an accident, the person lived but it was still so horrible to watch. My heart goes out to the family.

It's sad to see and hear about what happened to this teenage kid and what his family is going through. I can't believe that theme park's, till this day, still don't take weight precaution seriously.

A 300 pound woman who was on the ride Perilous Plunge, fell to her death when the rollercoaster cart that she was on, started to tilt downward, to drop down the slide.

The problem isn't the harness being locked and secured. The problem is when you have someone of that size, the harness can not come down far enough to push against the stomache or groin to keep you in your seat. It just rests at his chest. 3/4 of his body is just left to flail.
He should have never been allowed on that ride and those rides should have seatbelts to keep people in their seats!

Exactly this!! The harness may have come down over his shoulders just enough to lock so the ride could proceed, but his big torso prevented it from fully securing him, so it was a bit raised up as can be seen in the photos taken before it went. With how fast it came down, without seatbelts, he basically slid out from under the harness.
@@kyieshaj they would it's US the boy is black and overweight they would charge them for hate crime and accuse them of fat shaming lol then they will cancel the amusement park on twitter.
That's what you get when you don't keep your own body weight in check. Your body, your responsibility, go see a doctor if you can't get it under control.
Well, if that's the case, the kid should have gotten weight loss surgery.
Condolences to his family, friends, and relatives. He was gone too soon. He was just too young at the age of 14. My heart also goes out to them. I’m hoping wherever he is now, he’s in a much better place.

my sister and I have always been so thin and skinny, I remember taking her to the county fair (I was 18 she was 14) We went on most rides, and one in particular spun in a circle but also lifted upside down and shook you around.. the seatbelt harness was so loose that I was physically holding my sister into the ride while were upside down while she was screaming for me to please not let her fall... absolutely terrifying
No1 cares get your meat up
Sounds like the exact same ride my cousin almost fell out of! If my aunt weren't holding on, for dear life, she would have! I can't remember what it's called.
i know what you mean! i got so scared i would fall from a ride that looked like a spider... the legs went out and spun you around. happened 20 years ago and i still refuse to ever get on another ride like that again.
Same thing happened to me and my best friend when we rode the Cyclone in Coney Island. The harness was soo loose we didnt go flyin out from our seats bc we hold on to the harness with all our strength
I was at Cedar Point on one of the older coasters when a six year old almost fell out of the seat. I was in the seat ahead of him when I heard his mom yell. When the ride stopped, I looked behind and she was holding onto him super tight.
You could literally see in the photo taken it wasn’t completely fastened on him. The poor , poor young man. I feel for him and his family. The ride operators let this boy and his family down due to negligence and basic trust in their safety harness. They didn’t care and the park needs to add more safety features regardless. They shouldn’t wait until an awful tragedy makes them take action. Poor baby, May he Rest In Peace 😢
but the workers said when rhe ride came down rhe hareness was locked and secured down....something is not adding up
@@rhondabeirne8560 Further investigation after this report said it wasnt. The workers adjusted bolts on either side to allow the harness to lock in a higher position. Notice the gap? If they hadnt adjust those bolts, the ride harness wouldnt have shown the indicator light on. The ride wouldnt have moved because they werent all secured. The ride operator lengthened the gap by an extra 3 or 4 inches. Enough to lock the harness but unable to hold the rider in the seat as it flies up and down the shaft. Even a 350 pound child will become weightless at that velocity.

Idk how literally everyone including himself saw how it wouldnt close and still went forward with this
Everyone who saw him get into that seat should face charges
I remember when I almost fell out of a ride. I actually have had a couple close calls. The first time was on a ride called the ring of fire when I was about 9 or 10. The only thing preventing me from falling out of the ride was the fact that it had a roof, which I had the pleasure of head butting mid rotation. They had a lap bar with a large, cylender shaped foam covering that could rotate. So as the ride would go upside down, gravity tried to pull me out of the seat and the lap bar provided no safety and it even activly pulled me from the seat. My dad was also on the ride with me, he was bigger so that didn't help either. I desperately clung to whatever I could, sure I would somehow fully slip out and die if I did not.
Woah woah wait!!!!!! I was on a ride called the ring of fire it’s a giant circle right that goes upside down, and a girl almost fell out of it when I was on the ride, I was about 11-12years old and that happened like in 2008. Was that you?!? Honestly that’ll be wild if that was you cause I remember everything and your story is literally to a T of what I remember
Great memory man on the ring of fire. That ride is still at a local county fair as of last year. Yea, if it was not enclosed I am sure there would of been many accidents on that ride. Those "Carny" people put up and take those rides down super quick and off to the next town.
@@Jtough278 that would be cool if it was them
Me too dear I almost fell out of it too😭
Something similar happened to me too, when I was 9 I went on the Indiana Jones rode at Disneyland. At the time all the cart had was a lap bar. I rode with my dad, obviously a bigger person, so the lap bar wasn’t as snug as it could have been (and I was rather small for my age). During the ride, as it got faster and more jolty, i could feel myself lifting from the seat and I could have easily just slip out, if it wasn’t for my dad slinging his arm over my shoulders to hold me down. I didn’t pay attention to what was going on in the ride, I was just too scared about falling out. I don’t know what the ride is like now since I haven’t been on it since but I’ll never forget the feeling of nearly falling out of a ride.
This is why I don’t want to go to amusement parks or any swimming areas because of accidents like this. So tragic. It’s sad that he died at such a young age. Who would have known what he could have had accomplished in this life especially knowing he was playing football at his high school. Rest In Peace to him and condolences to his family.

He never should’ve been on that ride. The safety bar couldn’t come down far enough to keep him safely in his seat. Not his fault, he was a child and the people running the ride said it was fine. But it’s devastating and so senseless. It also seems like common sense, but I guess that’s not so common anymore.
That’s exactly it. The safety bar did not come down far enough to secure him.
I've only went on a ride like this once, in Denmark, but almost all rides I've been on you could hear a click when the safety bar locked in. I'm pretty sure his never locked in at all. Also, do they not have staff to check each safety bar before take-off?
@@robertlinder8464 They claimed that they checked. But there's no way, because you can see that it was not secured on him properly.
Has anyone considered that the “body positive” people have made everyone so afraid to say anything about weight that the young kids who run this ride felt uncomfortable denying him access because of his weight??? If this was Tess Holliday & she was denied, she’d sue the park.
He got refused from 2 other rides, not everyone thinks politics in their everyday life.

Yeah, that's probably what happened
When it comes to safety of life and death you follow protocol. The kid didn’t double check his harness. I don’t under stand how the light was green and aloud it to go up How can it be down abs locked if he flew out
@@craiglovessonar6547 I’m sure there will be more information coming out but from what we know now, the light was green so the workers were following protocol.

@@cole9693 Your comment kinda insinuates that you have experience working in that environment and whilst I can imagine it may be kinda awkward to ask a person's weight or refuse them access to a ride ..it is I would of thought that employees duty to do so, to avoid such horrific tragedies from happing in the first place. Now I don't know how these theme parks train their staff or if even if they place enough emphasis on the potential dangers but I did hear that he was refused entry on to others rides before this. I think it would make perfect sense to have these height/ weight warnings signs placed at the start of the queue and again before entry onto the rides on large notice boards so at least a person can make their own judgement on whether to proceed or not. Maybe it would also take the pressure off the the worker asking 🤷🏽♀️
Obviously the harness didn't fully come down so of course he was too heavy. My condolences go out to his family as they mourn his loss.
It was locked in position ( apparently)
I don't understand this at all, if the bar was down and locked ,how was he able to come out of his seat? It looked to me , like he kind of sled out of the bottom of his seat . Why was there a space underneath the bars large enough for someone his size to slide out? Something wasn't right, if the ride won't work ,if someone is not locked in , they should have had an harness too. I know he was too large for the ride and they shouldn't have let him get on in the first place. I'm surprised but grateful that this hasn't happened to a smaller person . My heart is completely broken for his family and friends,I pray that God gives them strength to get through this, I realize they may never get over it .
@@anitagoston2747 usually, gets locked down low enough to secure your entire upper body so you can't really get out even if you tried. but since he was so big, the bar couldn't go down the full way, locking in a spot which left enough room for him to just slide out since a good half of his body was barely secured in the first place. This is like putting a loop over your neck and calling it a day, vs the actual requirement which is to have the full upper body essentially strapped to the seat. and there wasn't an extra seatbelt to lock the bar to the seat which made it possible for him to just slip out. for regular sized person, this wouldn't happen. for a smaller sized person, they wouldn't be able to get in because of the height limit but yeah if they did get through, the same thing would happen
Edit: to better explain, as far as i understand, the bar came down at a slanted angle since they couldn't buckle it further to have it perpendicular to the seat. Whereas normally, your belly fat+the angle it's holding you at would make it impossible to slide out, the seatbelt couldn't even get over his belly (maybe 1: bc of his belly fat and 2: because his shoulders were in the way so it couldn't twist any further) so all that had to slide out was his thinner upper body/head. so when there was enough force shaking him around, probably nothing could stop him unless he held on for dear life.
In a similiar accident with a rollercoaster they explained that fat moves like water. So with the force the fat moved and the bar didn't hold him anymore, so he slipped out
@@anitagoston2747 - I would imagine even if it did lock into place while he was still, the question would be how much pressure could that locking mechanism take before failure with his body mass in motion due to the speed and g forces(?) of the ride?

Well better to body shame than to have a dead child . Even his own mother said they shouldn't have let him go on that ride.
Due to the fact that he was turned away from two other rides, because of this size, they were pretty much trying to warn him not to get on the ride, but he didn't listen to them.
