Tragedy in Legoland: Woman Dies in Lego Rollercoaster Accident
And it was at this theme park earlier in the week that a Legoland employee lost her life. A guest at the park had lost his wallet on a Lego roller coaster. The 21-year old woman jumped over a safety fence to retrieve it, and was promptly hit in the head with the Legocoaster’s car. She died instantly.
We could make a tasteless joke about how heroic bystanders quickly built an ambulance out of the available bricks, but we won’t. Instead let it be a cautionary tale: even if you are an employee, safety fences are there for a really, really good reason.
