Yeah there’s been a bunch of them lately, a lot of renowned ones too. Even six flags & Disneyworld has had some serious culprits the past few years. Idk what engineering firm is cutting corners, or what contractor is doing so with materials, but I personally don’t feel safe getting on one right now either. Just glad I got to ride as much as I could as a kid.
