This is absolutely heartbreaking 💔 My deepest condolences to the family. Water parks need to have stricter safety checks - this shouldn't happen to anyone.

I was there yesterday with my kids! This is so scary to hear. The staff should be checking seat belts and restraints more carefully. Prayers for the poor girl's soul 🙏

While this is tragic, I wonder if there was any rider error involved. The article mentions she lost balance - were safety instructions properly given? Still, no one deserves this fate.

Omg I can't imagine what her friends must be going through. One minute you're having fun, the next... this. Authorities need to shut down that ride until proper investigation is done.

The description of her injuries is just horrifying. This park should be held accountable if safety protocols weren't followed. Regular equipment maintenance is non-negotiable for thrill rides.

So young... just 24. Makes you think twice before going on these rides. Though I hope people don't just blame the park - sometimes accidents happen despite all precautions.
