While walking around in the park after getting off the colossus a 40 year old man fell off the ride from bar locking failure.After that they didn't even close the ride and when I went over to the exit of the ride I saw a kid having to go to the the hospital because he got very bad bruses and a big scrap along his arm.Don't ride it for the rest of the year.
