TRAGEDY AT JAZZLAND,
7 CREW MEMBERS KILLED
" What seemed like a normal day at the Jazzland Theme Park turned into disaster. During testing of Jazzland's newest ride, Gale Force 7, the coaster's colossal 475 scale ft. loop separated from the top supports. Unable to balance the weight of the train, the loop fell to one side, killing 7 crew members working on the top of the loop. Jazzland's CEO released this message:
"It is with great sadness that we announce 7 crew members were killed during testing of Gale Force 7. Our priority is safety, and we plan to learn from these mistakes. We understand this is a very difficult time. Any families who were affected by this tragedy are allowed to write their names on a special board, alongside the names of the 7 crew members. This board will be used on the new ride, and will be directly above the entrance to the ride."
Jazzland has announced the ride will continue to be built, however, the loop and top hat have been removed. The layout has been changed into a sprawling barrage of twists, turns, and loops. We do not have pictures or specifications yet, but we will soon.
Stay tuned for breaking news, as it happens."
