Six Flags rollercoaster allegedly causes ‘catastrophic brain damage’, 100 join lawsuit on ‘inherently dangerous’ attraction

The Guardian reports that the X2 rollercoaster at California’s Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia is the subject of a lawsuit from three people who said the coaster is responsible for their brain damage. They are joined by 100 others who also report “traumatic brain injuries”, which was previously highlighted by CNN who reported that two women suffered similar brain haemorrhages after riding it.
