I liked model world at thorpe. Gardens were kept looking lovely and it actually provided somewhere nice to eat your lunch.

It obviously is an important part because the amount of grease on the fence indicating a moving part. Looks like the fence has been put back up straight. (compared to the photo taken on the day, posted back as few pages)

The possibility of maintanance and testing on Tuesday is ruled out. I went on tuesday and I usually ride Rush first. I went to Rush as soon as the park opened. I asked why it was closed and was told it will be open as soon as the engineers finish thier checks. Rush was tested that morning.

I think its because the guy filming it took 2 steps to the left when it happened. To a tabloid newspaper thats running for your life or fleeing.

right so your saying I'm putting thorpe park in bad light. I put up info on the subject and then took it off the next day when I got home. I then find the day after there is an articly on this site about it aswell as being broadcast on ITV and in the UK's most popular newspaper! It's not like I'm saying Thorpe Park is unsafe in anyway because I have complete belief that it is with the knowledge of the testing rides go through. So please dont acuse me. Thanks.

Circled is the dent the part made as it hit Swing 'B'. Hard to see as it was taken on a mobile phone.
