Attorneys for Tyre Sampson’s Family Plan to File a Lawsuit Against The Orlando Free Fall Owners
Attorneys Ben Crump and Michael Haggard are representing the family. They say the ride’s operations manual has a weight limit of 287 pounds, but there was no sign and no scale displayed for guests.
“There’s a metal detector so you don’t bring your phone on, but there’s no sign about weight and there’s no scale. How that’s not so much more important than a metal detector for a ride is kind of amazing,” Haggard told reporters on Tuesday.
At one point, someone, possibly an inspector, was seen measuring each of the seats, which along with size, weight restrictions, and restraints have become focal points of the investigation from outside experts, lawmakers, and officials into the teen’s death.
