A former United States attorney and personal injury lawyer says that the Orlando, Florida amusement park will "absolutely" be held liable in an incident that resulted in the death of a 14-year-old boy.

Tyre Sampson, 14, fell off of the FreeFall ride at Orlando's ICON Park on Thursday night. The ride is 430-feet-tall, according to the attraction. 

Video footage of the incident show the FreeFall ride moments before the 14-year-old fell to his death.

Sampson was taken to a hospital, where he later died from his injuries. Authorities reportedly said that the 911 call was placed just before 11:15 p.m. E.T.

The family of Sampson has retained civil rights lawyer Ben Crump and personal injury attorney Bob Hilliard to represent them, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

Personal injury lawyer and former U.S. Attorney Neama Rahmani told Fox News Digital that ICON Park will "absolutely" be held liable in the incident which led to Sampson's death.

"Absolutely, they're going to be held liable. No Question," Rahmani said.

Rahmani said that the amusement park has a responsibility to keep their rides safe, and added that this case deals with a minor.

"Not only do they have a duty to make sure that the rides are safe, you're talking about a minor, right?," Rahmani said. "They have an absolute responsibility to make sure that their rides are safe. I mean, minors are riding that."

He added that the only argument that the park can give would be the assumption of risk by going on the ride, which he said is a "weak argument."

"The only possible defense would be some sort of contributory negligence or comparative negligence and assumption of the risk that this child knew the seatbelt was unsafe and chose to ride anyway. It's a very weak argument, and it could easily inflame a jury. You're talking about a child, right?," Rahmani said.

"It's a weak argument, but it's really the only argument, the only possible defense here. I don't think it's a good one," Rahmani said.

Rahmani said that in a personal injury claim, liability, damages, and coverage are looked at. All of these elements are met, he says.

"Liability is crystal clear, in my opinion. Damages are through the roof, I mean, what's worse than losing a child under these circumstances and watching it happen, and have the whole world circulate videos of his death. And then coverage, obviously theme parks have a lot of coverage and assets. It's a very, very strong personal injury claim," Rahmani said.
