Popular amusement park bans guest for life after roller coaster stunt viral video
A YouTuber has been banned for life from visiting all Six Flags parks after posting a viral video that appeared to show him eating chicken nuggets while riding one of the country's most famous roller coasters.
The video, uploaded in May by content creator Allen Ferrell, shows him attempting to eat McDonald's chicken nuggets while riding Millennium Force at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.
The stunt quickly gained attention online, generating hundreds of thousands of views and prompting a response from park officials.
Six Flags confirmed to Fox News Digital that Ferrell has been permanently banned from all Six Flags properties.
The company said food and other loose items are prohibited on rides because they can create safety hazards.
"Safety is a cornerstone of our business, and we have zero tolerance for inappropriate and unsafe behavior," a Six Flags spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
"Guests who violate our Code of Conduct are not welcome in our parks, and this guest has been banned from all Six Flags parks for life."
