There is movement happening within Dinosaurs Alive at Worlds of Fun. An excavator is land clearing and markings have popped up near Boomerang and Worlds of Fun Railroad. @screamscape@TheDrunkRiders@coasterradio
Being a ride operator is awesome.
-$15 an hour
-manual labor in 97 degree heat
-no health benefits
-sometimes little rest in between shifts
And if you make a small mistake that leads to someone getting injured, the family will sue you for $2 million
If I lived if Kansas, I’d be irate.
The Royals tax scheme in Kansas City is a rip-off for taxpayers, a gift to John Sherman and a bailout for the Hall family.
But the Chiefs’ grift in Kansas is an unconscionable fleecing. It’s shameful really.
@mex_19_ Most roller coasters do not have a weight limit. They have a restraint that may not accommodate larger riders. The ride itself has a safety system in which trains cannot be sent if the lap bar is not lowered to a safe position.
@lisey_ann The rider’s body size is completely irrelevant as the ride itself has a safety system in which it will not allow a roller coaster train to be sent if the restraint is not lowered to a safe position. This was a mechanical failure.
I’ve never understood the argument that “seatbelts ruin airtime”. They absolutely do not, unless you had the lap bar several clicks above its appropriate position.
Six Flags is already in the process of killing Cedar Fair and its most prestigious parks. If we continue to let their penny-pinching corporate dipshits run wild, they’re going to kill public trust for the entire industry.
These lifeless, soulless executives need to be exiled.
B&M's restraints have a minimum number of required clicks before the computer acknowledges the restraint is locked and the ride can dispatch - this can not be overriden by ride ops. seeing many posts giving them the direct blame is sad when they are no doubt traumatised. stop it
