ORLANDO, Fla. - An autopsy conducted by the Orange County Medical Examiner on Tyre Sampson, the 14-year-old who fell off the Orlando FreeFall ride in March, concludes that the boy's cause of death was the result of blunt force trauma and the manner of death was "accident."The report, released to FOX 35 on Monday, also reveals that Sampson weighed nearly 100 pounds more than the maximum passenger weight for the 430-foot drop tower attraction at Orlando's ICON Park."The body is that of well-developed, obese, 74 inch, 383 pound, black male, appearing older than the reported age of 14 years," the medical examiner's reports state.

The report details multiple internal and external abrasions, lacerations, and fractures.Tyre Sampson "He was 387 pounds and that’s 97 pounds more than what the maximum requirement was.

So he never should have been on that ride. He should have been able to attend his 8th-grade graduation last week," said Kim Wald, an attorney with The Haggard Law Firm. "This is just one more piece of the puzzle moving forward for us in the case."Sampson was visiting Orlando from Missouri during a spring break trip with fellow athletes.

According to the report, Sampson went on the ride with one of his football friends. At the top, his friend "became nervous and closed his eyes" until the ride came down.
