I hate it when the GP thinks that wooden coaster's aren't safe. It drives me out of my mind!

 

From my own experience on these forums. I've noticed this has been a big issue for Europe, and not much of a problem stateside.

When I introduced the 4D coaster concept on one of my essays, the supervisor kept saying it's just fantasy, then I told him X2, Eejanaika, Dinoconda and those Intamins already existed... He said that's just something in the simulator that the manufacturers used the park to promote.

 

I'm 100% firing him if I am the school president.

Wow that user should be banned and list as illegal for polluting the internet.

 

About FD3, someone said he was really worried about roller coaster safety after they watched FD3... I said if he thought it is real, his computer screen would explode and he would be stabbed in the stomach at his kitchen by himself before his house explode. (is it too much?)

^^I am at a loss for words on that post.

 

Getting us back on track...

 

I had a lady and her daughter walk up to me while operating our kiddie coaster, Ravine Flyer 3, and ask "This ain't one of them rides that goes through loops?" Putting things in perspective, you literally walk under this tiny layout to make it to me operating the coaster.

UGH! Idiot! You have a better chance at dying in a car crash, or a plane crash than you do on a rollercoaster! I understand that a woman died in July because of the Texas Giant. But the way the idiot asking the question on Yahoo is making it sound like Six Flags was trying to kill the woman, like amusement parks are death traps trying to kill people.

 

Amusement Parks bring joy to people, bring families together, and create unforgettable experiences that will last a life time! This woman thinks that that opportunity should be taken away. It's a damn shame, I hope this woman looks up her facts next time before ranting on rollercoasters.

Adding on to what tarheel said....

 

And I quote the voter's choice best answer to the question:

 

"cars kill people they are not banned

trucks kill people they are not banned

busses kill people they are not banned

guns knifes and even straws kill people they are not banned"

 

Amusement parks are a small cause of deaths in the world compared to car accidents, plane crashes, fires, natural disasters, murders, etc.

That is an accurate statement considering some of those causes of death (especially plane crashes) are quite unlikely themselves.

I found this on a video of Falcon's Fury at Busch Gardens:

Is that wind seeker?

I guess it looks kinda similar, I guess? But God, can she LISTEN, the people in the video were saying that it was a drop tower more times then I can count!

Translation:

 

Chinese GP:Why you are filming a POV of Front view!???? You should film both ways !!! It cannot shows how thrill the ride is !!!!!!!!

Anyone can refilm this Coaster? Please do not film the rails again! or film how high the ride is ! That's more realistic!, We don't like see rails! Shoot toward the sides please !

 

 

My Response: Please look toward the front to prevent sprained neck & Waist

Someone posted this on the Valleyfair Facebook account in a topic related to the new Disk-O-Coaster for Route 76 at the park.

 

"Paige Marie Westrum: It looks like a bigger version of the Fairly Oddparents Coaster at Nickleodeon Universe"

A Disk-O-Coaster looks like the Fairly Odd Coaster at NU? Really?!? Only the GP.

Something I once thought was that Disney World should get a ride like Top Thrill Dragster but theme it like the scene in "Up" where the house flies off the ground and goes over the city.

On one episode of Big Bang Theory, Leonard is going to take Penny to Switzerland and he leaves her clues as to where he is taking her. When she guesses they are going to ride Matterhorn at Disneyland, he tells her there is a flight involved, and she then guesses they are going to Disney World to ride the Matterhorn.
