Emma1980 Posted November 2, 2013 Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 I was on it tonight at 5pm x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 It says on their website 5pm - Logger's Leap, Rocky Express, Carousel, Mr Monkey’s Banana Boat and Rumba Rapids all close. But for some reason they seem to be keeping rumba rapids open all night, and rocky express stayed open till about 6:10 as no one was going on it, so the operator was sitting in there doing nothing.

Mattgwise Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 And the two nights I went banana boat was open all night as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1hrisin Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 With all this rain and the water level is too low!? I know it's meant to close at 5 for BWP but it just doesn't seem to open all day at all for fright nights. However I did visit about a week ago and it was open all day and we had 6 goes on it Haha Ikr it doesn't really make sense. Maybe it is showing its age? Also I would like to correct my previous post where I wrote MBV instread of BWP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastercameron98 Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Me and my mate turned around and did the ride backwards! The second drop was good and the ride photo was pretty funny! But then we got kicked out because of health and safety Kicked out? As in kicked out from the park or the ride for the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluk Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 But then we got kicked out because of health and safety Yes, I'm sure someone form the health and safety executive was straight on to the Thorpe Park hotline when they got wind of your ride photo. You got kicked out because of stupidity, not because of health and safety. Merry-go-girl, BigBobJones, JoshC. and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluk Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Stick at it and some day I'm sure you'll manage to risk your life in such a way as to be a threat other people as well. Indeed. It is because of morons like these these we end up with seatbelts and daft restrictions on rides which don't actually need them, Douchebags. I guess the best we can hope for is you put yourself forward as contenders for the Darwin awards outside of a themepark environment so the rest of us can get on with enjoying ourselves.

Coaster Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Me and my mate turned around and did the ride backwards! The second drop was good and the ride photo was pretty funny! But then we got kicked out because of health and safety Breaching health and safety rules in such a way is ridiculous, it's people like you who ruin our rides for everyone. (Anyone remember the restriction on Rumba Rapids last year because of people standing up?) What on earth went through your head to do an idiotic thing like that? luckily just the ride This proves my point about the park not being strict enough - you should have been ejected from the park for doing that!

pluk Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 Woah.. yeah they did something stupid but It doesnt need the same type of comment repeated at them. Why ever not? Hopefully it will make them see that it's not just one moaners opinion but general consensus that such things are real stupidity and discouraged as strongly as possible.

EC! Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 well, if you going to publicise on a public forum that you were a total knob and that from your actions, you could have potentially changed rules that could mean people are potentially worse off or don't enjoy it as much then Pluk, Jamie, Merry-go-girl and others have every right to be annoyed with him, he has been a total burk!

Matt 236 Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 In just over a months time, the park will be open again for 2014 and Loggers will be 25 years old, but the big question is, will they replace the ageing and now partly removed tunnel? I personsly think they won't, because of the effort being put in to Angry Birds land, it could prove challenging to re-landscape it, considering the old structure is between the slightly hilly surroundings (unless the foundations are stable enough to cater a new roof) and also, there's also no major marketing aspect to it as most of the action in 2014 will likely be around the north/west side of the park.

GladiatorFanKyle Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 When I went last september there were new boats with handles on the seat dividers in the middle of the boat, I'm guessing all of the boats will have this now?

c1hrisin Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 No, they are a couple of special seats, there are 3 I think? There's a picture of them in the previous page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
