A rollercoaster ride at Carowinds is closed until further notice after a large crack on a support beam was reported to park employees.
WCNC Charlotte viewer Jeremy Wagner shared photos and a video of the crack on the Fury 325 coaster late Friday night. The video shows the ride running at one point, with the affected part of the beam visibly moving as the coaster cars run on the track it supports.
Wagner said he shared the video with park officials at the guest services center and was later told the ride was shut down.
A spokesperson for Carowinds confirmed that when WCNC Charlotte reached out. The following statement was provided:
Carowinds today closed Fury 325 after park personnel became aware of a crack at the top of a steel support pillar.
The park’s maintenance team is conducting a thorough inspection and the ride will remain closed until repairs have been completed. Safety is our top priority and we appreciate the patience and understanding of our valued guests during this process.
