    Were there any sprinklers in the building?

    SeaWorld Abu Dhabi | Manta | Intamin LSM Launch Coaster | 2023

    The coaster looks lovely but that park is also something special. Judging by this video it's really well done.

    Icon Park - Drop Tower Accident 24/03/2022

    The whole inspection part seems great but will also any ride in Florida over 100 feet now require both harness and seatbelt? Or did I get that wrong?

    Six Flags Qiddiya | Saudi Arabia | Theme Park

    They have literally carved out a huge chunk of a mountain specifically for a coaster. That's impressive

    Cedar Point | Top Thrill 2 | Triple Launch Renovation | 2024

    I also find it quite unsafe to have trains traversing the station at this speed. It has to be moved.

    Question about adult/child admission policy

    That's pretty standard procedure for indoor playlands. The rationale is that the kids will be the ones paying and the adults will just be there to supervise the kids. Therefore the adults are no the ones using the facilities as much and pay less. For indoor playlands. Usually the kid is charged...

    Are the GP getting worse with "Unsafe ride" dramas

    Many coasters are in theory lethal. Then they have all sorts of safety features to make them safe but in their purest form they are lethal. Imagine riding a normal B&M looper with no restraints, no block sections, no sensors. You are almost guaranteed to be dead by the end of the ride. That is...

    Your worst spite

    Balder was down my entire first year in Gothenburg. While I had ridden it before, it was still hard see it almost daily and not be able to ride it.

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Well done by Disney! This whole show was obviously in revenge of Disney's first amendement right to express themselves, regardless if one agrees with Disney's expression or not. Will be an interesting case to follow...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    I am sure it will. It will probably stay at least this entire season, if not more. The article quotes Liseberg's technical head saying "It has served it's useful life and although we have not made the final decision, I can say that we are discussing it's future". Flumeride is probably the most...

    In other Liseberg news, Flumeride now has the writing on the wall. The attraction will soon be going with Liseberg CEO Andreas Andersen saying "We are planning on replacing it". Flumeride has just turned 50 years old and will need a very substantial renovation, therefore the park prefers to...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Liseberg has put their advertisement on the ferry bringing people to Gröna Lund. It's the latest act in the friendly feud between the two Swedish giants. Previously, among other things, it has involved Liseberg flying a hot air balloon with a Lisebeg bunny on over Gröna Lund and Gröna Lund...

    Are the GP getting worse with "Unsafe ride" dramas

    Dont think it's getting better or worse. It's pretty much unchanged. Unsafe ride dramas attract views!

    Disney and Desantis

    I'm not saying that it's bad being pro LGBT. But, right now there is this massive anti trans thing in the US. Bud Light walked right into it and now it hurts their bottom line. Disney did a similar thing. Saying things at the wrong time hurts business. Anyone who has had to come out, has...

    Disney and Desantis

    Desantis and his other republicans didn't each get between 1.2 and 1.6 million more votes by gerrymandering. Apparently, they are just popular. Disney obviously are motivated by profits, and purely by profits. Desantis and his gang are motivated by his ego, possible presidential bid and his...

    Disney and Desantis

    Not on a state level. Florida hasnt had a democratic governor for over 20 years. In the 2022 election, Desantis beat his (ex republican governor) opponent by almost 20 points. The biggest lead in 40 years. He got the majority hispanic vote. This is also the first time in almost 150 years that...

    WTF Merlin?

    I never understood why Merlin would use Aramark for F&B. Would certainly be better if they did it themselves.
