St. Louis, MO, October 16, 2026 —
A man died after being ejected from the Goliath roller coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia, according to the available account. The man’s brother-in-law recounted the incident and referred to the victim’s last words and his daughter’s account that the ride restraint failed.
The account does not provide the victim’s name, the date of the incident or the specific words he reportedly said. It also does not include the daughter’s full account or details about what she observed. Her statement about the restraint is presented as her account; no independent findings about the restraint were provided.
Information about the circumstances of the incident remains limited. The summary does not say how the man came to be ejected, whether other people were on the ride with him, or whether emergency responders attended. It also does not provide details about any investigation, inspection, permit status or potential code violations. No official statement from the park or authorities was included.
The account identifies the attraction as Goliath and the location as Six Flags Over Georgia, but offers no further information about the ride’s operation or what happened after the incident. The brother-in-law’s recollection and the daughter’s account are the only descriptions provided. Without additional details, the cause of the ejection and whether a restraint failure was established cannot be determined from the information available.
