Six Flags Permanently Bans Influencer From All Locations Over Viral Park Stunt
Going viral can come with some pretty serious consequences-just ask YouTuber Allen Ferrell.
The content creator, who boasts more than 1.8 million subscribers on YouTube, has reportedly been banned from every Six Flags park for life after posting a video that showed him attempting to eat McDonald's chicken nuggets while riding one of the world's most famous roller coasters.
The stunt took place aboard Millennium Force at Cedar Point in Ohio, where Ferrell accepted a challenge to eat a 10-piece order of nuggets during the ride. He even walks by an employee and says, "If anyone asks, I do not have chicken nuggets in my underwear."

In the now-viral video, he can be seen sneaking the food into the park before pulling it out once seated on the coaster. As the coaster crests its massive first hill and plunges toward the ground, Ferrell begins stuffing nuggets into his mouth.
At one point, he even yells, "Cameraman! Sauce!" prompting his companion to hand over dipping sauce mid-ride.
The clip quickly racked up hundreds of thousands of views online, but park officials were far less amused. According to Cedar Point spokesperson Tony Clark, the punishment was swift. "This guest has been banned from all Six Flags parks for life," Clark told WKYC 3News on Thursday, May 28.
Clark emphasized that the issue wasn't the chicken nuggets themselves but the safety risks involved. "Safety is a cornerstone of our business and we have zero tolerance for inappropriate and unsafe behavior," he said to the outlet. "Our ride safety policy strictly prohibits all loose articles on rides, including food which can become a choking hazard."
He added, "Safety is a partnership between our guests and the park, and guests must follow all written and verbal instructions for safe riding. Guests who violate our Code of Conduct are not welcome in our parks."
Ferrell, for his part, says he understands the park's decision. "They just don't want other people getting hurt on the ride. But me personally, it was a really fun challenge," he said to FOX 8 that same day.
And this wasn't even Ferrell's first food-related roller coaster stunt. In 2025, he uploaded another video showing himself eating a McDonald's sandwich while riding Millennium Force. While initially prompted to eat a five-star meal, Ferrell called his Big Mac "five stars for him." That clip has since amassed more than 5 million views.
