Overview
- Missouri’s Division of Fire Safety reported that more than 20 lap belts or retractors failed to lock during an Oct. 30 inspection, leading to the coaster being red‑tagged.
- The park made Fire Marshal‑requested modifications and a DFS reinspection cleared the ride to reopen that evening.
- Six Flags, the park’s parent company, said 18 seat‑belt units were replaced out of caution, with the rest of the system rated satisfactory in the report.
- Riders previously reported a seat‑belt release on Oct. 11 that was captured by the ride camera, with a couple holding a girl in her seat during the run.
- Worlds of Fun says lap bars are the primary restraint and notes the coaster passed its April annual inspection, while DFS conducts spot checks in response to complaints.
