 A large crack on rollercoaster support pillar seen moving as riders raced past was spotted days before videos and pictures of it went viral. Jeremy Wagner was visiting Carowinds amusement park in Charlotte with his son, daughter, niece and son's friend on June 30 when he saw the crack hundreds of feet up and recorded it. A week later, on Friday, North Carolina Department of Labor Commissioner Josh Dobson said that the crack was observed before the ride was closed by park officials. 'It looks like maybe six to 10 days prior, some pictures had been taken that shows the beginning of the crack, and then by obviously last Friday, the thing was completely severed,' Dobson told Fox News Digital. Dobson added that 'until we're 100% comfortable issuing that new certificate of operation, we will not do so'. 'We're going to take as long as it takes,' he said.
