November 26, 200816 yr comment_40206 No.. it just basically stopped at a very awkward angle. I have the video of it somewhere..
November 26, 200816 yr comment_40208 Yeah there is a video of it on Youtube, and I witnessed it at the park with Joe and took pics. It was not upside down, some girls restraints did not open, no-one died, blah blah blah etc.
March 13, 200916 yr comment_47789 Thanks for the update bubbly, I love Slammer and it would be good to see it working this weekend.
March 13, 200916 yr comment_47794 It is my favourite flat in the park so am really hoping it will be up and running
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49064 Was at the park for a few hours today and got a picture of Slammer at the top. It was going up and down all day apparently. Only got it from the start of Colossus bridge as we were in a rush hehe.
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49079 Going on the 27th, would be awesome if Slammer is running smoothly. It's my chance to finally push my brother onto it..
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49080 Haha Slammer has always been my favourite for dragging my wimpish friends onto
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49088 There's always dragging involved, I don't see what's so scary about the look of it?
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49089 Didn't I drag you on James pahaOooeeerr ;)I think its the just fact its a 105ft tall ride with minimal restraints. Mmm yummy!
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49091 Yet so harmless! It can't be a restraint issue for my brother, he's fine on Rush.Definately that and the height, for my friend.. gonna have a big task on my hands (if it's open)
March 18, 200916 yr comment_49097 I will not ride slammer if the que line exceeds 15 mins. I find the restraints too painful, and I don't really get much of a thrill from it. It does nothing for me. I'm prepared for a torrent of fanboy/girl abuse...
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49158 I always wonder how people find the restraints on Slammer painful as I have never found them uncomfortable or anything. Just scary haha
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49166 Just got back and slammer was testing and thay were working on it.When you say testing was it going all the way round becuase I heard that it was just rising and lowering back down.
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49178 Just got in from Thorpe, Slammer was going up and down, but the two times I saw this happen,it's spun the first 180 degrees then it got stuck upside down, the mechanics were on the top working on it. Will try and find the picture of this.
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49180 I'm scared of Slammer! Any tips for riding it? I'm gonna be so scared of the forward flips.
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49183 I just screamed really loudly! Op told me and my mate we were acting like a bunch of 5 years olds
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49208 Slammer wins! The second foward swing is immense, my sister and my cousin are petrified of it! Makes me laugh so much...
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49231 I know no one knows for sure, and it's really a stab in the dark. But, what do you guys think the probability of Slammer opening on either Saturday or Sunday is?
March 19, 200916 yr comment_49236 I know no one knows for sure, and it's really a stab in the dark. But, what do you guys think the probability of Slammer opening on either Saturday or Sunday is?Judging by the amount of testing currently being carried out, I would get that there is quite a good chance that Slammer might be up and running by the weekend. But as you said, no one knows. It could be tomorrow, it could be monday.
