The Hawley family is suing Six Flags Magic Mountain and the ride's manufacturer, S&S Worldwide, following the death of their son, Christopher, after riding the X2 roller coaster. The lawsuit claims wrongful death, negligence, and failure to warn about potential injuries. The ride reportedly causes significant jolting and has a history of safety concerns. The family's attorney asserts that the injury was not a pre-existing condition, with a direct link to the ride's operation leading to a fatal brain bleed.
"This is the first lawsuit I'm aware of that deals with the death of somebody. There was a clear link between the injury and the cause."
"This is not the type of injury that has a delayed onset of symptoms or can manifest from something that happened much earlier. This is a massive brain bleed that we think is fairly attributable to the ride."
