TPR is pretty good at breaking roller coasters! Especially this family coaster at Sparky's in Abu Dhabi! We were quite surprised to hear a metal clanging sound hit the floor!
Junior Coaster 1 has just had to make an emergency stop 2 hours later Junior Coaster 1 is still broken. Consider hiring more mechanics. 30 minutes later Junior Coaster 1 has been fixed. 1 minute later Junior Coaster 1 has crashed!
Being fair that was down to the operators. They should know the limits on the rides, and prevent a whole train full of adult people clambering onto it.
Most kid coasters (to my knowledge) are designed with enough strength to hold adults as well. Kids will usually ride with their parents and are designed with extra weight in mind.
kickyoface3000 This is 100% correct. The ride was not like a little wacky worm or dragon wagon, this was a full sized "family coaster" that traveled the perimeter of an entire amusement area. The weight in the train shouldn't have had anything to do with it.
kickyoface3000 yupp you are right. i don't know the exact standarts but they calculate i believe with around 100 kilos (200 pounds) per person or something like this. 150 kilos standart is discussed about.
FridayTeardrop And then after that they put an engineering safety factor of times 3 on everything. Theoretically speaking, a lot of rides in this world could operate in full with only 1-2 bolts per connection, and have the train be entirely plastic, but it wouldn't be safe nor last very long.
So funny! Tiger Terror at Safari Land Chicago was broken a few weeks ago. They had to weld it. I saw your vid there. You should go again npw that they have a music light show! Nothing major, but still a new ride experience!
I feel you tpr, my family decided to have my 14th birthday party at boomers for the laser tag and go karts.they also had a tug boat, you know, the one that spins as if on the ocean. Well it started alright and kept spinning, but that's all it did, apparently 6 people was too much for that ride and it couldn't go up. So I feel you.
I was like "Why are there Ghosts in the front row, is this a special roller coast like a Horror-Show-rollercoaster or something like that" and then I read the title of the video... :D
Smart move the ride attendants stopped you from going a second time after that piece of pipe fell through the tracks. Who knows what would have happened if they let you go through.
Theme Park Review That reply was beautiful aha. In all seriousness rides and coasters break a lot and there are minimal deaths and injuries on coasters so after one parr falls off a family coaster you say that you will never ride a coaster again is totally insane
FridayTeardrop There's a difference between an indoor kiddie coaster in Dubai and a full sized Intamin or B&M roller coaster in America or Europe. The construction standards are different.
Crazy4Coasters I think someone hacked the website. It said "Hacked by (Some Japanese name)" and showed some pictures of these anime characters. Not sure what it was about.
