The Electric Eel, which had been shut down last month due to an injury, has resumed operations. SeaWorld’s Electric Eel coaster, which was shut down over a month ago due to an injury suffered by a rider, has reopened, the park confirmed Monday. SeaWorld San Diego spokeswoman Tracy Spahr said on Monday that Electric Eel resumed operations on July 18. Over the years, there have been a variety of Electric Eel ride injuries reported to the agency, among them a dislocated knee, shoulder and neck pain, cuts on the forehead, and a ruptured breast implant. Electric Eel is described on SeaWorld’s site as “853 feet of pure excitement,” during which riders will experience a drop from a height of 150 feet while the coaster trains surge forward and backward through looping twists and an inverted roll.
