Texas Six Flags Rollercoaster Fall Kills Woman A woman has died after falling from the tallest steel-hybrid roller-coaster in the world. The accident happened at the Six Flags Over Texas theme park in Arlington, Texas. Park officials confirmed the woman died but did not specify how she was killed. However, witnesses said they saw the woman fall from the Texas Giant rollercoaster. "She goes up like this, then when it drops to come down, that's when it (the safety bar) released and she just tumbled," said Carmen Brown who saw the accident happened. Brown said she was next in line behind the woman and saw her being strapped into her seat next to her son. We heard her screaming. We were like, 'Did she just fall?"" Brown said. Six Flags expressed sadness over the death and said it was temporarily closing the section of the park around the accident site. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends during this difficult time," the park said in a statement. The Texas Giant is 14 storeys high, has a drop of 79 degrees and a bank of 95 degrees. It can carry up to 24 riders. The ride first opened in 1990 as an all-wooden coaster but underwent a $10m (£6.54m) renovation in 2010 to install steel-hybrid rails before reopening in 2011.
