Ummm. Surely the train carrying on with that flailing rope can't be the safest of things?

^One word : China.

I love "they were sent to hospital... according to state television"

Yeah, right, they're blates in a camp to make sure they don't talk.

China <////3

Those Shuttle Loops are FAB though <3

I've seen this model of rollercoaster in a Thai park before, it's been defunct for years. :?

Must be horrible being stuck there, especially when everyone is looking at you clueless wondering how to get it down...

^They're pretty common in China, we went on three.

One was AMAZING, and destroyed any Boomerang (apart from a GIB, obv). The loop backwards in the back car is crazy, even more than a Boomerang, one was great and one was HORRIBLE.

Fake and gay.

How so? Please try and post something a little more constructive... :p

Didn't they have a problem like this on Turbine at Walibi Belgium? Possibly not that one but I am sure that I have heard of this happening before on the old shuttle loops.

It always amazes me when it does happen though considering the mathematical improbability of it all.
