JACKSON - A Brooklyn woman is suing Six Flags Great Adventure for negligence after breaking her ankle on a water slide last year.

Tolyndra Pierre, 20, is seeking $3 million after being slammed on the King Cobra water slide at Hurricane Harbor, which she and a friend rode using a double tube, according to the New York Daily News.

They carried the tube to King Cobra from another ride, even though only single tubes are allowed on the water slide.

Both Pierre and her friend, who was not injured, exceeded the 200-pound weight limit, Pierre's attorney, Peter Ferraiuolo said.

“The screener or monitor on the ride should have stopped them," Ferraiuolo told the Daily News.

The Hurricane Harbor website lists King Cobra as a 256-foot water slide, about 56 feet in the air. The first part of the water slide consists of separate tracks, so riders can "race" each other. But at the end of the ride, both tracks empty into a single, wide slide that resembles the head of a cobra.

The combined weight of Pierre's tube didn't allow it to safely stop before it continued down another slide, resembling the snake's mouth. Pierre's tube "surged up" and slammed her into the mouth – breaking her ankle.

"Unfortunately, we cannot comment on pending litigation, however, the safety and well being of our guests is always our top priority," Six Flags Great Adventure spokeswoman Kaitlyn Pitts said in an email.
