What mother, in their right mind, would let their four year old child go on an amusement ride that simulates "sensations similar to what astronauts feel!!!

Death After Disney Ride Sparks Call for Federal Review
Cause Unknown in Tragedy Involving 4-Year-Old


The death of a 4-year-old boy who lost consciousness on a Walt Disney World thrill ride Monday is still unexplained and has prompted a renewed call for federal monitoring of theme-park safety.

I don't care how many people have been on this ride without any dire consequences! A four year old doesn't belong on a ride like this one! The poor little guy was probably scared to death!

Since Mission: Space opened in 2003, seven riders - all but one of them 55 or older - reported problems such as nausea and chest pain. Before boarding, riders are warned about the ride's intensity and told to back out if they suffer from motion sickness or other conditions.

If you have to be warned before the ride about the intensity, should a small child be put on it?
