Fury 325 is one of the world’s tallest and most popular roller coasters. But back in June, it shut down after a visitor noticed one of the support beams was cracked. A second crack was found later in July.
The ride was tested by the park more than 500 times before a final inspection was conducted to make sure it was safe to operate again.
