boat on the Poseidon. The retaining brackets closed properly, as shown in the pictures. After the start, the boats of the "Poseidon" water coaster are pulled diagonally upwards to a height of about 20 metres. According to witnesses, the heavy man suddenly panicked, pushed out with all his might against the retaining bracket and squeezed himself under it. Even his companion sitting next to him and the other passengers in the boat could no longer prevent him from climbing out of the slow-moving train. The 44-year-old fell into a pond overgrown with school, which is outside the generally accessible visitor area. An emergency doctor could only determine the death of the man. The passengers who were still in the boat and those accompanying the dead man received psychological care as a precaution. The accident went largely unnoticed by the other guests of the park. Arthur During work on the not yet opened new for 2014 attraction "Arthur in the Kingdom of Minimoys" in Europa-Park, there was an accident in which two employees of a third-party company for ropes and nets were hit by a roller coaster car. One of the two workers suffered life-threatening injuries and later succumbed to his injuries in hospital. The two workers were working near the roller coaster on a lifting platform. During the work, the attraction is said to have been in test operation, and several roller coaster cars drove past the workers. Eventually, both were hit by a car, police said. It remains unclear why the workers stayed in the restricted area near the track during the test operation despite warnings (loudspeaker announcements), clearly violating the safety regulations.
