00:00These are the deadliest rides in history. So the Haunted Castle was a ride at Six Flags Great
00:03Adventure in which a fire broke out because the entire castle was made of combustible materials
00:07and lacked smoke detectors and sprinklers. Eight teenagers lost their lives, making it the deadliest
00:11in US amusement park history in 1984. The Big Dipper in the UK was a roller coaster in the
00:151970s responsible for the worst roller coaster disaster in history in which five people died
00:19and 13 others seriously injured after the lift cable snapped as the train was at the top of the
00:23climb. The emergency brake also failed, causing the train to roll backwards and derail, crashing
00:27into one of the other cars. Verruckt Waterslide in Kansas was the tallest waterslide in the world
00:31at that point and was responsible for the decapitation of a young boy who flew off and struck the metal
00:35safety. They closed the park one year afterwards in 2018. Mindbender was a ride in the West Edmonton
00:40Mall in Canada that was the world's largest indoor triple loop roller coaster, but in 1986, the train
00:44derailed thanks to missing bolts, leading to wheels flying off mid-ride around a turn, ejecting three
00:48passengers who ultimately passed away. And finally, Derby Racer was responsible for up to five total
00:53deaths because of riders routinely standing up and jumping between moving cars, with employees even
00:57betting on it at one point because of the frequency. That's crazy.
