Clark, who described her brother as “my hero,” called his sudden death “unfair,” saying she could not understand how someone who had overcome so much could be gone.

“He had other issues, but he’s healthy, he was able-bodied. I don’t understand it,” she said.

Clark also recalled her brother’s devotion to his loved ones, telling the Post that he worked hard to provide for his family and helped raise his fiancée’s daughter, whom he had known since she was 3 years old.

“He could do it all,” she said.

The grieving sister also condemned the circulation of disturbing images showing her brother’s final moments as he fell from the roller coaster, urging people to stop sharing them.

“That’s just evil,” Clark told the Post. “It’s tragic, and I feel like we’ve gone too far as a society.”

as Kariem reportedly fell from the ride, with one parkgoer telling local outlet WXIA that the victim appeared in a souvenir photo taken during the roller coaster’s run.

“He was in our pictures,” the witness said. “He fell and hit the car three different times.”

The Goliath hypercoaster reaches speeds of up to 70 mph and features a 170-foot initial drop, a second 175-foot drop and a 540-degree spiral, according to the park’s website.

Atlanta Public Schools confirmed Tuesday that Kariem worked for the district as an IT manager and extended its condolences to his family.

Six Flags said it was cooperating with authorities investigating the incident and temporarily closed similar roller coasters at other parks across the country as a precaution.

Authorities have yet to determine what caused Kariem to fall from the ride.
