CHILLING FOOTAGE: CHILD’S PHONE VIDEO CAPTURES MOMENT FATHER WAS EJECTED FROM 112 KM/H SIX FLAGS ROLLER COASTER AFTER HARNESS SNAPPED

AUSTIN, Tex. — In a harrowing turn of events that has sent shockwaves through theme park visitors worldwide, terrifying smartphone footage recorded by a young child on board a high-speed roller coaster has exposed the horrific seconds leading up to the death of 38-year-old father Hassan Kariem at Six Flags.

The disturbing video, which leaked online early this morning and instantly triggered a social media firestorm, captures the exact moment a critical safety restraint mechanism appears to snap and fail as the coaster train reached a blistering top speed of 112 km/h.

A Family Outing Turns Into An Unimaginable Nightmare

What was meant to be a weekend of family joy for Hassan Kariem, his wife, and their two young children descended into an absolute horror story high above the ground. Sitting directly in front of his father, Kariem’s eldest son had pulled out his mobile phone to record the thrill of the ride’s steep drops and high-G turns.

Instead, the phone’s camera documented a mechanical catastrophe in real time.

As the coaster rounded a high-speed banked curve at 112 km/h, violent vibrations shook the car before a loud metallic snapping sound echoed over the roar of the wind. The primary lap-bar harness suddenly popped upward, leaving Kariem completely exposed to extreme physical forces.

“You can see the exact instant the lock gives out,” noted a forensic video investigator analyzing the leaked footage. “The physics at 112 km/h are unforgiving. Without an anchored shoulder or lap restraint, human strength alone cannot resist that level of centrifugal force.”

Five Haunting Words: A Last Breath Farewell

The most heartbreaking detail of the entire recording is not just the mechanical failure, but the final, tragic moments shared between Kariem and his beloved family.

Realizing in a split second that his restraint had completely given way and that he was facing certain death, Kariem used his final gasping breath to shout over the screaming wind to his wife and children.

According to lip-reading specialists and audio engineers who analyzed the raw phone recording, Kariem choked out five haunting last words that have left millions in tears:

“I love you guys… hold on!”

A split second after uttering the desperate farewell, the sheer force of the turn ejected Kariem from his seat, throwing him into the air as horror-struck screams erupted from every rider on board the train.

Federal Investigation Demanded As Park Shutters Ride

Emergency medical teams converged on the scene immediately after the coaster train returned to the station, but Kariem was pronounced dead at the scene due to catastrophic impact trauma.

Six Flags management issued an urgent press release confirming that the ride has been shut down indefinitely while federal safety inspectors, local law enforcement, and third-party engineering firms conduct an exhaustive forensic audit of the harness locking systems.

“Our hearts break for the family and loved ones of Hassan Kariem during this unimaginable time,” a park spokesperson stated. “Safety remains our highest priority. We are fully cooperating with all investigating authorities to determine precisely how this mechanical breakdown occurred.”

As the Kariem family prepares for a heartbreaking funeral and legal representatives assemble a high-stakes wrongful death lawsuit, the leaked phone footage stands as a chilling monument to a father’s final act of love amidst an absolute tragedy.
