Another multimillion dollar jury verdict in outdoor recreation

Climbing wall company hit with a $2.3 million dollar verdict for a broken ankle and fractured vertebrae

Boomers of Boca Raton Florida was sued by a 46 year old man for his injuries when a hydraulic cable attachment (?) failed causing him to fall to the floor. The defense argued they had no obligation to test and maintain the equipment.

However this information is coming from the Plaintiff’s attorney’s press release so it is suspect. The only information I could find was all based on this press release.

The defendant is a California based entertainment company Festival Fun Parks which owned the defendant Boomers. To see this article go to: Boomers in Boca Raton loses $2.3M verdict
