X2 Coaster Lawsuits Mount: Woman Claims Traumatic Brain Injury
5 Nov
Summary
- A woman claims the X2 roller coaster caused a traumatic brain injury.
- Six Flags is accused of inadequate restraints and failing to warn riders.
- This is the latest lawsuit linked to the X2 ride's alleged dangers.
Six Flags Magic Mountain is once again facing legal challenges concerning its X2 roller coaster. A woman named Destiny Banks has filed a lawsuit, claiming the thrill ride resulted in a traumatic brain injury.
Banks alleges that on November 7, 2024, she was violently jolted on the X2 coaster, repeatedly striking the back of her head against the headrest. She asserts that the ride's inadequate restraints, headrests, and padding contributed to her injury.
Furthermore, Banks claims Six Flags was aware of the X2's inherent dangers but neglected to warn riders. She is seeking unspecified damages, which include medical expenses and lost wages. This legal action is the latest in a series of lawsuits related to the X2, which has previously been temporarily shut down due to reports of multiple serious brain injuries and two fatalities.
