Employee killed by roller coaster at Legoland Denmark2007-04-30By Robert Niles: A Legoland Denmark employee died yesterday after a roller coaster car struck her at the Billund theme park. I've not yet found details on which ride killed the 21-year-old woman, but reports from the park say that she jumped a security fence to retrieve a customer's wallet, which would lead me to suspect that the employee was not trained on the attraction. (I can't image that any employee trained on a roller coaster ever would jump a ride fence while the coaster was in operation.) The park is open, but the ride closed as police investigate.

What a shame...to loose a life over a wallet...seems that employee was not trained on SAFETY 1st. This article has been archived and is no longer accepting comments.
