Does anyone know if there is any particular coaster that has had a higher number significant injuries or deaths on it than others have, that is still in operation? Just wondering, I want to ride it. =o)
Of course, *you* can make any coaster you want as deadly as you want...perfect example, ride Magnum at CP with no seatbelt and lap bar up (and no trims too) and talk about legitimate "ejector" airtime as you fly into Soak City (same with Voyage at HW).
Memphis Kiddie Parks Little Dipper is, by far, the most painful coaster I've been on. Having raised two kids, and ridden it well over a hundred times, I can attest that little coaster can be brutal on adults.
I've seen more adults walk/ hobble off that thing holding their back. I've never heard of any lawsuits though and I think I know why: Not many grown men are willing to take the heat for saying: I'm getting a lawyer, that baby coaster done messed me up!.
I have a feeling that if a currently-operating coaster could be defined as deadly, it would no longer be operating. At least I hope that would be the case.

For me the ride wasn't that bad...it was the automatic launched OTSR release when the train returns to the station that hurt me. The damned thing smacked my right in the nose... ;)
