She had a personal obligation to make sure she was secure. If a rider feels the harness is not tight and secure, they should never proceed with the ride.

Beyond that, while parks should implement restrictions, human beings need to understand that their obesity not only places them in danger for the mere fact they are obese, but they simply cannot engage in certain activities.

That was a mechanical fail of the harness (a tragic one). If a harness is not well anchored or locked, the ride simply doesn't lift off.

About the obese people... well, that's right. They are exposing themselves in risky attractions conceived for standard weights and volumes...

That, plus the fact that society is overly concerned about walking on eggshells so as not to hurt feelings and offend people. Fact is, there are too damn many irresponsible and reckless people today who NEED to change their ways and tow the line, so too damn bad if they're insulted.
