Would this qualify as a 'too fat/Omaha' because she was too big to activate the safety mechanisms? Or would this be a 'not too fat/Omaha' because she wasn't fat enough to be wedged into the seat with her own girth?

Man, this story really threw me for a loop.

It's had its ups and downs. But now I think it's back on track.

I wonder if she really fell out or if she happened to glance down and spot the funnel cake stand below her...

News reports are coming out that the reason the workers didn't double check the harnesses is because they were too busy watching 'Throw momma from the train' on their iphones....

She's a big girl, crazy about coasters
She's a big girl, she loves her popeyes
She's a big girl, the attendant didn't even click her
She's on the side walk, with a broken heart

Family has hired a lawyer. This probably isnt going to end well for Six Flags.

For Rosy Esparza, it was her first trip to Six Flags Over Texas.
Her son on his Facebook page described his mother as adventuresome and said she had been having a good time at the park.
The Dallas mother died Friday evening when witnesses say a restraint came loose and she plummeted to the ground from the Texas Giant, a hybrid steel and wooden roller coaster.

Family members of Esparza confirmed her name but said they were not ready to comment further. One family member said an attorney had been retained to represent the family.
But on his Facebook page, her adult son, Amado Esparza, wrote in Spanish: “I’ve never discovered a day as long as this one. It’s very sad that I lost my mom, but I’m happy that I was able to enjoy her to the maximum while she was alive.”

Neighbors in their southeast Oak Cliff neighborhood said Rosy Esparza lived with her husband, Antonio, Amado Esparza and a teenage son. The couple also has at least one daughter.
One neighbor said Antonio Esparza is a preacher.

Maria Padron, one of the family’s neighbors, said Rosy Esparza was very religious and frequently invited people to her home to study the Bible.

“We cooked a lot for each other; anything you can think of we made for one another,” Padron said. “Tamales and rare Mexican espresso was our trade. I’m going to miss those simple days of just hearing her knock on the door.”
Padron said Rosy Esparza was a “woman who lived for her family.”

Alfred Cannon, another neighbor, said he had been talking to Amado outside the family’s home Friday and had asked him to work on a water heater.
He said Amado said he would have to do it later because he was headed to pick his mom up at Six Flags.

Later, he received text messages from Amado about his mother having died at the amusement park.
“Her belt went lose and she flew away,” one of the text messages said.
