#Petition: Dangerous theme park rides - Justice For Tyre Sampson (14yr Old Killed at Icon Park)

14-year-old Tyre Sampson went to ICON Park, an amusement park in Florida, with friends for spring break. Tyre tragically died after he slipped out of his harness and fell out of a popular ride called the Free Fall. Desiree started a petition calling on Orlando’s DA to look into ICON Park. She believes Tyre’s death was caused by staff negligence. Add your name to push for better safety standards at amusement parks. Justice For Tyre Sampson (14yr Old Killed at Icon Park) 8,398 have signed Desiree Thompson’s petition. Let’s get to 10,000!

On March 24th 2022, 14 year old Tyre Sampson originally being from St Louis, MO went with friends and an adult Chaperone to Icon Park while vacationing in FL on a Football program.  Tyre and his friends would go on a ride called the "Free Fall" where the ride attendant/operators would display gross negligence leading young Tyre to Fall to his death. When we go to places like amusement parks and such we expect to be safe. We expect for the people in charge of operating these rides to make sure that we make it off the ride to talk about it. This Video has gone viral and now his family has to watch as the ICON PARK staff carelessly started a ride going 430 feet into the air without their beloved Tyre being properly secured in the seat. He fell to his death coming down at 75MPH because of Gross Negligence. Stand with Tyre Sampson , his Family & Friends and call for charges to be brought on the Icon Park Staff members responsible for his death!
