A popular content creator received a lifetime ban from all Six Flags amusement parks following an odd stunt wherein he attempted to eat a 10-piece order of chicken nuggets while riding a roller coaster. The weird incident reportedly came to light on May 19th when social media star Allen Ferrell posted a video of the misadventure online. After one of his followers issued the odd challenge, the content creator explained, he ventured to the Six Flags park in Cedar Point, Ohio, to try and pull off the peculiar feat.
Managing to conceal the food in his clothes before boarding the park's Millennium Force roller coaster, Farrell scarfed down seven of the chicken nuggets before the ride came to an end. In a commendable level of dedication to the bit, he even made use of the dipping sauce during his fast-moving meal. Although the content creator conceded failure when it came to the curious challenge of eating all ten nuggets, his video proved to be wildly successful as far as garnering attention is concerned, racking up hundreds of thousands of views. Alas, Farrell's footage also caught the eye of Six Flags, which was not too thrilled about being the setting for his audacious stunt.
In response to the incident, the amusement park's parent company issued a statement declaring that "we have zero tolerance for inappropriate and unsafe behavior." To that end, it noted their strict policy against "all loose articles on rides, including food, which can become a choking hazard." Undoubtedly hoping to prevent people from copying the content creator's antics in their own chase for online clout, the company indicated that Farrell "has been banned from all Six Flags parks for life." Considering the additional attention cast upon the chicken nugget, one imagines that the content creator was more thrilled than disappointed by their decision, since the story wound up being covered by media outlets around the world.
