Thrill ride severs rider's feet

I love themeparks, but I don't care for thrill rides — I'm a Haunted Mansion guy, not an upside-down vomitcoaster 3000 guy. I don't have the stomach for it. Besides, people get hurt on those things.

A girl's feet were cut off Thursday when a free-fall thrill ride malfunctioned at the Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom Amusement Park in Louisville, Kentucky, police said.

A cord wrapped around the 16-year-old's feet and severed them at her ankles while she was on the "Superman Tower of Power," a police dispatcher said. The girl was taken to a local hospital.
