While amusement park and carnival rides look pretty scary and dangerous from the eyes of a small child, dad knew the mousetrap roller coaster ride was completely safe, which is why he thought it would be a great idea to take his young son on the ride.
Delbert Latham had been spending the night with his 6-year-old son, Kaysen, at Wonderland, a Texas amusement park, and before the night was over, he had convinced Kaysen to go on the mousetrap roller coaster with him one last time, and decided to film his son’s experience so they could show mom later on.
When the ride started, Kaysen looked excited and was relaxed knowing dad was right by his side, but as soon as the coaster went down its first big drop, Kayden’s seatbelt came undone and he slipped right out of the seat.
Luckily Latham was able to pull him back, and held onto him tightly until the end of the ride. “As we were going down, it threw him into the bottom of the cart and that’s when you see me reach over to grab him,” Latham said.
However, when they notified the ride’s operator, the man casually said that the seatbelt in that seat had been failing sometimes. “Really it’s already happened and you continue to let people ride??!!” Latham wrote. “And after this they continued to let people ride they just didn’t let anyone in the back seat!”
Watch the shocking footage dad caught the moment his son’s seatbelt came apart in the middle of the roller coaster.
