TimR Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Last time I went on it (Sunday 3rd May) it made a really horible and loud screeching noise at the start, is it still doing this?Also the opp said something really funny while it was going on, he said "sorry Mr Monkey is a little constapated at the moment" that made me laugh so much.

Dreamkitty Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 I went on this Ride too it was fun and just the right amount of scary lol I hate the one at Chessington that one is too big, like your going to fall out of your seat, but the one at Thorpe park is the correct height to be fun and enjoyable, it felt more secure.

James6 Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Anyone up for a really old picture of Banana Boat and Thorpe ?Metallabu EnnienScroll right down to the bottom.The manufacturer of the ride is also obviously Metallbau Emmeln (MBE) which was interesting as I've always thought it to be Vekoma.Look at Thorpe's background or lack of.

JoshC. Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Wow, great find James! :)Never knew that MBE were the manufacturers. That photo must've been from it's first couple of years, quite surreal looking at that pic actually.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little ken Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Mr. Monkey's Banana Ride looks quite cute next to Nemesis Inferno and Detonator. It's nice to have some rides for kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattgwise Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Interesting find, Seems strange as the area is so empty. No trees, X\\:No Way Out or Colossus in the background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBdaWonderLlama Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 I went on it today. It was the only ride other than X:NWO to make my friend feel sick. It's actually quite intense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
