Six Flags Magic Mountain Permanently Closes X2 Coaster After Brain Injury Lawsuits

Six Flags Magic Mountain in California has permanently closed the X2 coaster following a series of catastrophic brain injuries among passengers. The company voluntarily shut down the ride as guest confidence declined amid multiple lawsuits alleging neurological damage. These legal challenges include one settled lawsuit alleging wrongful death. The decision to permanently remove the attraction comes as a direct response to the string of serious injuries and the resulting legal actions faced by the park.
