Unverified Reports

During AVID night at Six Flags Magic Mountain, my friend and I were about to ride the Gold Rusher. Once at the front of the line, the ride was shut down. A group of freshmen girls began crying ans shouting that one of their friends had jumped off/fell off the ride and into the bushes. A search for the girl began. I do not know what happened afterwards since the area was closed off. The ride did reopen later in the night, but the worklights were turned on (the ride is usually dark at night).

This incident has not been confirmed. Click here if you can verify it, or have additional information.

If you have additional information that can confirm, clarify or refute any of these reports, please e-mail the editor! (Please don't forget to include the attraction's name in your message.)
