2. You wear 2 velcro straps. Lap belt and around chest. Workers check straps before you are released. Rumors that his straps failed.
3. Essentially weight and straps keep you from flying off when cresting second hill at high speed. There is video showing test rafts going airborne. They installed nets supported by metal hoops to catch flying people. Pictures of bent metal hoops at the previously mentioned crest. So he was launched airborne at high speed (60+ mph?) into a steel bar.
4. Also heard Kansas has a cap on lawsuits of this nature of $250k.
