I meant to post this earlier when I saw the post from his mother (apparently) on social media. The Banshee victim passed away. :(

Pretty sure it was going to be an another Intamin Multi Dimension, but more akin to Uncharted, with heavy theming. I thought this was pretty much open public knowledge though, so you've got me questioning the info now. haha. Doesn't matter either way, because as it stands, it's being scaled...

Kind of... They'd have to create a web page... But it would not need to be dynamic, they'd just have a static page that links to Accesso's system like they do for tickets, fast track etc. As well as links within the park app. That would take minutes for Merlin's in house devs. (It would take me...

That's Intamin as far as I know.

Pleasure Beach?

They have the system in place already though, it's built into accesso. (In fact, didn't they use it for DBGT at one point?)

Hopefully that is the case then.

Yikes… Eyewitnesses suggesting he just walk through an unlocked security door. Other park regulars claiming they seen it open several times this year. Obviously this is speculation, and pretty strong accusations. But if true, they could be in trouble for this, even though entering a ride area...

Didn't they do the same at Alton Towers too, or am I fabricating that memory... Makes perfect sense to me, and it's genuinely to protect their lives. Unfortunately, as good as kids are these days compared to in the 90's and 00s, get groups of teenagers together and there's bound to be occasions...

The sprocket thing is on RTRM’s ‘theory.’ My post, which I assume yours was in response to, doesn’t assume that’s the reason, but it does assume it’s either something to do with lift mechanism part having a manufacturing defect in some way, or some issue with installation. I obviously don’t...

There’s every possibility that the first part that failed was nothing to do with Merlin or Mack. If it was an installation issue, then it’s often outside companies that manage construction and erection of the coaster. And if it was a part of the lift mechanism that had a manufacturing defect...

But if you take the extraordinary issue with the head sprocket, or whatever it was, out of the equation, then there’s nothing extraordinary about early life valleying… That first issue seems to have been a manufacturing or installation error, which do happen. This isn’t some serious design...

Now I want to know your thoughts on Icon 🙈😂

They’ve told @Paul Farmer at Guest Services not to risk making the journey tomorrow. Said they don’t know either way yet, but they’d advise him not to travel with the 2 hour drive involved. :/ Still, we’ll have to wait and see…

As first posts go lately, that's probably the best for a good while...

Nope, no confirmation whatsoever. But I personally think the most plausible theory was Ryan's, in that it's likely to have been something to do with the head sprocket.

So a train valleyed... Big deal, not exactly unusual, happened on Voltron too remember... Only thing that was unusual was the first period of closure / maintenance, that's what makes this one stand out. If it weren't for that earlier closure this would be a none story, something you almost...

IMO Hyperia is the better coaster anyway, or to rephrase that, out of respect for everything that has gone into Voltron, at least the most enjoyable of the two... (And several other people's opinions too, including some German enthusiasts we were talking to.) Whichever order you put them in...

I think I have to give my top spots to Disney, as cliche as that is. There were two standout moments for me in terms of immersions and just all around general 'wtf? Was that real magic?' The first one was obviously Rise of the Resistance, the immersion on that ride is just crazy, if you're a...

If you've got an hour spare... Give this a watch... If you don't have an hour, at least watch this...
