Episode description

Welcome back to the Future is Bright? This week Bridget tells Lindsay about not really a true crime case, although it should probably be considered one. This is the history of Action Park, dubbed Class Action Park, an amusement/water park in New Jersey. This title is for a good reason too, they had rides that didn't look like they took safety or physics into consideration. The park had several deaths and eventually was closed down as it was once known but reopened with less dangerous attractions. Grab a drink and get ready to be thankful you never went here as a kid
