OK, I'll be the first to ask a Playland question:

Does anyone know if there is any truth to that story about the guy who got his legs cut off while working on the rollercoaster at Playland and was given a job at the Sutro Baths rolling the Lord's Prayer onto pennies? Was that just something someone made up to terrify the kiddies? Can anyone tell me some other famous Playland/Sutro Baths injuries or fatalities? I've heard a few stories, but I know there are more out there waiting to be told! Thanks,
