Teen struck, killed by coaster at theme park, police say

Well apparently an employee died that way (by a foot). However I thought it would be pretty hard to decapitate someone with a foot wouldn`t it (question mark) Maybe a foot going 50 mph could decapitate a head, I dunno. Do they tell them to take their shoes off (a lot of rides do that)

As of right now it is unkown, however to take someone's head off i got to think it's more than just someone's foot. Though at 50 MPH it may be possible i guess.

By the way Batman is one great coaster, i've ridden it like 20 times in a row before.

I would be more than happy to answer that question on the shoes atleast here at SFGA. On the coasters Batman ( the same one where this happend), superman, medusa, and Nitro we make ( or suppose to) reomve flip flops, however we do not ask that shoes be removed ( for health reason's)
