LMFAO. Thats the worst thing ive ever heard anyone say about a ride. lol. I mean, obviously it is no way over 70mph its just obvious. When it launches it doesnt look that fast, its when your on it it feels alot faster.

Gouldy when you mentioned the skyride i remembered something!!!! I seem to remeber the first time i rode nemesis, we were travelling from Ug Land to FV, and you know it goes over the valley and gardens. Well someone in our car said "OMG i hate these things, i read a story about how one of these in Italy broke. The cable snapped and a few of the cars fell off down the mountain about 400 foot or something." and then the stupidest thing of all, some one said "Did anyone die?????" WTF????? I THINK you may die after falling 400 feet in a glass cabin. Thats IF it ever happened, lol.

Hmmmm i know i ahve a ton of these stories, they are so entertaining. I just cant remember them all. Probably one of the worst ones ive heard is by one of my friends when we went to Alton towers on a school trip. Hes a little chavvy and stupid, but you can kinda let it go as hes a bit of a retard and makes me laugh. Anyway, he goes "I remember last time i was here, i was queueing for THE (all the GP say the) Oblivion stopped halfway down the drop!" That also made me laugh.

hmmmmmmmmm other ones, other ones. I would have laughed if someone had told me slammer got stuck upside down fo 20mins and part of thorpe park closed because of it, but ive seen video evidence of that, and it was in the news so that is true.

i hope SWAT is more reliable than SLammer lol. I guess ill find out. I also laughed when some SFMM ppl said that Superman The Escape was the fastest ride int he world. Theyre like 'its the only ride to be 100mph fast' and this was this year. Ppl just assume things, and say what they want. I feel like correcting um, but that would be rude[lol]

IMO, those are the worst, when people claim they were on a coaster and it stopped half way along. The same guy who thinks rita is the fastest ride in the world also said he got stuck on shockwave in the middle of the loop. I tried to explain to him it's not even possible, but he just wouldn't believe me.

^I think I'll add to that. People need to realize that it is impossible to get stuck on a drop when there are no breaks and gravity is pulling you down. The only places where it's possible to get stuck are in the valleys. And people who say THE in front of everything. Give me a break, go read the map, get your info right, and get a WWS account. Thank you.

Same happned with me some guy explaining that la via volta stalled upside down in the cobra roll. (boomerang coaster). I know something alike has happened once, but that wasn't la via volta. And the worsest part from those people is that they won't change their comments. It's something that never had happened (or else i would have known) and they try to say it did happen once. Oh well. The world is full of lying people. [:D]
