Six Flags bans YouTuber for life after nugget stunt

A viral video showing YouTuber Allen Ferrell eating McDonald’s chicken nuggets while riding Cedar Point’s Millennium Force led Six Flags to permanently ban him from all Six Flags properties, citing safety rules that prohibit food and other loose items on rides
The moment the roller coaster first climbs, the stunt is already set in motion: a box of chicken nuggets concealed before arriving at the park, then Allen Ferrell boarding Millennium Force at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio.
In a video uploaded in May, Ferrell is seen attempting to eat McDonald’s chicken nuggets while riding one of the country’s most famous coasters. The ride rises and drops through its first hill, and as he begins to eat, he also calls for dipping sauce—passed to him by a friend seated nearby.
It wasn’t just the choreography that caught attention. After the ride ended, Ferrell said he managed to eat seven of the 10 nuggets. Within days, the clip turned into a social media moment, drawing hundreds of thousands of views and triggering a wave of reactions online.
Six Flags confirmed the fallout: Ferrell has been permanently banned from visiting all Six Flags parks.
“Safety is a cornerstone of our business. and we have zero tolerance for inappropriate and unsafe behavior. ” a Six Flags spokesperson told Fox News Digital. The company also said that food and other loose items are prohibited on rides because they can create safety hazards. adding that “Guests who violate our Code of Conduct are not welcome in our parks. and this guest has been banned from all Six Flags parks for life.”.
Ferrell’s channel is built on challenge videos—unusual dares and stunts—and he has more than 1.8 million YouTube subscribers. In the same roller coaster video. he appears to prepare for the stunt ahead of time by concealing a box of chicken nuggets before entering the park and then later boarding Millennium Force.
Online, reactions split largely along the familiar lines of shock and laughter. One commenter wrote, “Somebody 100% got hit in the face with that sauce.” Another posted, “Enjoy that lifetime ban!” A third added, “How to get banned 101.”
But Six Flags’ position stayed the same: the behavior violated the park’s rules.
The nugget stunt also wasn’t the first time Ferrell posted eating footage from Millennium Force. A separate video uploaded in 2023 showed him eating a McDonald’s sandwich while riding the roller coaster, and that earlier clip has since amassed more than 5 million views.
Fox News Digital reached out to Ferrell for further comment.
Right now, the viral moment has a hard edge: in Six Flags’ words, there’s no welcome for guests who break the Code of Conduct—and Ferrell’s ban is for life across all Six Flags locations.

lol they should’ve just warned him instead of banning forever for nuggets.
Wait so he got banned for life because he ate while on the coaster? That seems extra like they could’ve kicked him off the ride not his whole life. Also who cares it’s just chicken nuggets.
I saw the sauce part and I’m pretty sure he was trying to glitch the ride safety like prank style. If they passed it to him and he dropped nuggets on somebody, then yeah that’s on him. But banning from all Six Flags forever is wild, like what did they expect, a refund?
They act like one little box of nuggets is gonna ruin safety lol. I’m guessing it’s really about the influencer thing, like they don’t want people filming dares. I mean he already had 1.8 million subs so they probably wanted to make an example, not because of loose items. Either way, imagine getting banned for life over food on a ride.
