The Six Flags theme park in Georgia Atlanta is under water, the flooding has left the site under several feet of water, please wait for the video below to load!

Six Flags Over Georgia is flooded. In fact, most of the roller coasters and amusement park rides are drowning under the cold muddy water. The deadly storm that dropped over 20 inches to the southern states, has caused more than roller coasters flooding. The torrential rains have claimed seven lives as of this morning, with other still missing.

According to abcNews.com, "Six Flags Over Georgia is also now under water. In some places portions of the roller coaster tracks have
disappeared under brown, murky water."

"And the water is cold -- many of the people who have been pulled from the flood waters have hypothermia," abcnews.com continues.

At 7:15am, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution - ajc.com's minute-to-minute updates say,"Officials closed I-20 in a second location, at Fulton Industrial Boulevard near Six Flags, due to water covering the road. I-20 remained closed in Douglas County between Lee Road and Thornton Road. I-285 is closed between Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway and South Cobb Drive. And I-575 is closed in both directions at U.S. 92 in Cherokee County."

"Six Flags Over Georgia theme park located west of Atlanta, in unincorporated Cobb County, opened in 1967. It is the second park in the Six Flags chain, after the original opening in 1961 in Texas."

Six Flags Over Georgia, like most amusement parks, prides itself on its roller coaster collection. With the arrival of Goliath on April 1, 2006, it became only the third amusement park (after Six Flags Great America and Six Flags Great Adventure) to operate four coasters from the design firm Bolliger & Mabillard," says Wikipedia.
