Satoshi Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 It made me real sad to see the bird's death on Stealth bunny hop track and Thorpe Park needs to check its whole track out before it's open for all guys since they don't totally want to believe any kind of horrible stuffs like Stealth runs over small animals. If lots of guys got to see its ride's like Animal Murderer they would be gonna hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnage Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 That brings back memories. I was on the train during the TPR UK trip that hit the bird on Stealth. Feathers just exploded in every direction as we came over the bunny hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrakenKing Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 If you watch it frame by frame, you see in the last frame before the hit, that the bird does try to fly away. Too slow though, ha. Reminds me of a time I was at Busch Gardens after it rained... there were Pigeons all along the skyride cable. When the ride started moving most didn't fly away, when it came to the wheels where the cable is pushed though, one bird didn't fly away and got smashed under the wheel. I thought it was funny.

COASTER FREAK 11 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I was in th front of that train. The bird was sitting inbetween the brake fins at the end. Our bird more or less exploded into a plume of feathers. You know I have never heard of birds on any other intamin coasters, I wonder why Stealth has such a deadly record!

bigdaniel Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 After the opening in April there almost was a bird lying on the nets... Isn't it dangerous to ride the bird killer? I mean you can hit by a bird at your face when you have bad luck and that wouldn't feel good. Greetings Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verticalzero Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 RIP Pigeon, Atleast it's body did not get stuck in the wheels and make the train stop mid-track. I wonder what attraction "Stealth" is to the birds, is the paint or just curious to see what this steel monster is.. I can agree 200ft high on the Top Hat is a mighty fine place to pirch and see what's going on around you. Have these kills just been on the Bunny Hop section..? I wonder if the park will provide "goggles" soon so you don't get sprayed with Blood n feathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Atleast it's body did not get stuck in the wheels and make the train stop mid-track. It would take one massive bird to stop a train going 70mph. Not even hitting a human would cause the train to stall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPDave Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Yeh all the birds that have been killed (about 5 or 6) have gone on the same bit of track, beginning of the bunny hop. They've given up clearing the feathers up now, if the carcus goes that a bonus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COASTER FREAK 11 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 ^Dose that mean that we are murders? I dont want to go to jail for runing over a bird. I know we will say the bird had a death wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 ^^ Yeah, well that's what several of us were originally thinking, after getting off "the bird killer train" in June. OMG "what if..." Thankfully the old Stealth took the total brunt of the....'hit.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
