Parents speak out after child's 6-metre fall from indoor Scarborough zipline | CBC News
"Ramin Azizi was at Aerosports Trampoline Park in Scarborough attempting to cross the zipline on an obstacle course. His harness failed, his father said, and the child fell roughly six metres, hitting the ground on his back. Ramin said that while he was lying there, waiting for paramedics to arrive, he was scared he was going to die. I was feeling very traumatized, he told CBC Toronto in an interview on Tuesday."
"Azizi said Ramin was released from SickKids around 2 a.m. Sunday after many medical tests. Since then, Ramin has been resting in his bed. He bruised his back, but Ramin said he does not have any broken bones. Ramin's parents, Sadir Azizi and Mona Azizi, said they are speaking out about the fall because they don't want another child to get hurt. He's lucky, and we are taking that blessing to let others know, the boy's father said."
An 11-year-old boy, Ramin Azizi, fell roughly six metres from a zipline at Aerosports Trampoline Park in Scarborough after his harness failed while attempting an obstacle course on Saturday. He landed on his back on a go-carting track that was not operating that day. Paramedics attended and Ramin was treated at SickKids, being released around 2 a.m. Sunday after multiple medical tests; he sustained back bruising but no broken bones. His parents report a lack of typical backup safety measures such as nets or padding and say they are speaking out to warn other families. The park says the incident is under legal and insurance review.
