Oh no! One of the premier coasters in the South is closed due to a structural crack! Luckily no one was hurt and the coaster closed without incident.
Coasters are very safe so failures like these need to be investigated fully. I’m a firm believer of the saying, “you will learn more from one failure than a thousand successes.”
Lets see what we can learn from a video taken 100 ft away.
Fury 325 is located at Carowinds, which is a unique park that straddles the North and South Carolina Boarder. This ride is one of three coasters in the park that crosses state lines which could provide a unique twist to the investigation that will ensue. The break occurred on the NC side.
