A man was diagnosed with a concussion after a loose iPhone hit him in the head while riding the Maverick roller coaster at Cedar Point Amusement Park in Ohio last week.
David Carter, a paramedic in his 20s, said that the phone flew out of the pocket of a boy riding the roller coaster in front of him. The boy’s mother also dropped her phone into the water below her while on the ride.
Carter was treated by a first-aid team at the park and then was released. Park officials say he did not request any additional assistance at that time.
“I had blood dripping down my face, and I felt a bit dizzy,” told Carter to the Detroit Free Press.
A former Cedar Point employee, Carter said he was disappointed with how the park handled the incident. Staff reimbursed him for his Fast Pass and offered him free meals for the rest of the day, but his two-hour trip to the first-aid center only left him time to claim one meal.

Carter went to the hospital on Sunday morning, where doctors diagnosed him with intermittent headaches and a concussion.
Per Cedar Point rules, any loose items are required to be secured in a storage bin on the rides, or left with non-riders.
