Oops! That was definitely what I meant when I put 'Shoot the Chute' 😂

The area behind Merlin's quest seems like it would be a good shout for a new ride tbh, it's the biggest open space

Chiapas was delayed for a year because of all the issues with it’s hardware, so yeah it gets included even if it works (mostly) now.

Most major Intamin water rides can go in here to be honest. Perilous Plunge Hydro Pilgrims Plunge/Giraffica Shoot the Chute Chiapas Divertical All plagued with either accidents, delays and removals long before their natural ride life span. I’m sure there are more these are just the ones I can...

This is the same park that let the rockwork on both the Mine Train and log flume get to such a rotten state that it became a health and safety hazard and had to be removed due to neglect. Merlin manage to turn over that sort of profit because they hoard all the money rather than reinvesting it...

Can we also just appreciate how he says “Betty hwhite”

I’d love to be as optimistic as you guys, but can I see them building anything bigger than that duplo coaster? No.

I believe Maurer has a patent on the Non Inverting Loop, meaning Intamin had to pay a fee for the NIL on Soaring with Dragon (but not Flying Aces, cuz the shaping is different).

I honestly think this is such a dumb excuse for parks to make. From what I remember from being a teenager, I was still a part of my family. So what is a family supposed to do, drop the teenagers at Thorpe on the way to Chessington with the younger kids?? Split the family up so everyone can have...

Let’s break it down even further.. 1 + 9 = 10, that’s how many coasters Alton Towers has, 7 + 1 = 8, that’s how many Defunct coasters the park got rid of.

I guess it was overspeeding that section? :|

I think it just feels really short? Like it’s got all that space, it’s so spread out, they just doesn’t utilise the space much. Top hat, airtime hill, stall, finish.

I’ve heard they had to be retrofitted for H&S reasons or something like that. I do hope they’re not permanent, but they look a bit sturdy for a temporary scaffold.

The good thing is that this one part looks like it hasn't been ruined by the addition of catwalks. The aviary section looks awful:

I’m pleasantly surprised that the tower goes through the middle of it, I’d just assumed that the croc was going to be much smaller and just look like forced perspective, like the original Krake mouth. Are those screens on the seating a permanent fixture or are they just a covid placement?
