That's actually the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Do people actually believe the junk they come up with? I don't believe it is happening I just said I found it interesting. They mention it in the video as if its something they've talked about. I did take it with a pinch of salt. Is it really beyond the realms of possibility with the technology in this day and age that in the near future we could see a coaster with emotion recognition? -

OK this is interesting ... Big rumours coming out that 'facial recognition' technology will be involved. The worlds first aspect. Some insane rumours (and even mentioned in the video above) that facial recognition actually has an impact on the ride. Literally the more you smile, the less friction there is on the wheels and you go faster. Interesting! -

Here's the ITV video edited and put the right way round. Can't believe that another professional tv company can't take a good POV. not only that, but they get film it as a mirrored image and then claim its open LIVE on TV when its not! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZM0-jEUUiE Indoor section with the lights on I'm suspecting. -

Your link doesn't seem to be working. http://vimeo.com/65887753 It's not the full POV, missing the first drop and inversion. It looks intense, quick, and not too rough. -

Wow. Wow. Wow. That looks amazing. A lot quicker than I thought! Especially the airtime hill! Can't wait to ride it! -

Wonder why they weren't allowed to show the first half? And her face on the second airtime hill. Priceless. I guess it works then! -

I had that same thought! Wouldnt that be awesome if that could happen? Well cell phones these days have the technology to pick up facial features such as eyes, mouth, etc. I'm sure the technology is there for them to do something like this. I wouldn't be surprised to see it as an 'option' to have your face warped into Smile in the picture booth after the ride. With a small charge of course. -

That looks like a brilliant, fun ride. It will come into its own in a year or so with the maturing trees etc. Thank you for sharing. -

Jinxed it. I really hope it doesn't hit the cars and just sprays before and after they pass. Doubt it though. Grrrrr. -

Awesome. Those projections certainly do point towards said secret element? It shows the cars rotating, has a rotating symbol and 'The Disorientator'. ? Pretty intriguing.
