Has Anyone Had A Close Shave?

[Matty22]

I went on the 20th July and was looking up at detonator taking a picture , then about 2m from me a man's coins flew out of his pocket and almost hit me on the head.(from the nemmie lift hill) I wondered whether I should tell anyone but didn't, and I got 2p out of it as well.I just wondered if anyone had experienced something like this

I had a park map fly into my face on the final inline on Colossus a couple of years ago

I dunno it was either he got kicked in the head or summint hit him in the head it was before they put sum of the nets up

Ok look, if he got kicked in the head by someone on Inferno he would have have been killed... very possibiliy decapitated. The nets on Inferno have always been up ever since day one.

To put it simply, your friend was lying to you.

Not at all a close shave but some guys refused to get off slammer and the whole crowd were shouting OFF OFF OFF OFF but they stillrefused to get off so security came along and chucked them out of the park.

HAHA! What were they thinking! I'm glad they got kicked out, what idiots.

You are aware that camera's and other such loose items are not permitted on any ride. It's a Health & Safety Hazard, be it Slippery Serpent to Saw: The Ride.This is also an "offense" if you will, against the Park Regulations and you can easily be ejected from the park without a refund.

Ive heard ops say to people cameras are aloud on rides such as Loggers Leap, Rumba Rapids etc but obviously at your own risk..

[treeis]

Well I guess if you can bring a massive 4 foot orange snake on Rumba and Loggers, you can take a camera.

Me and my mate jordan did once play cards on tidal wave. But then if the cards fell off the probably wouldn't hurt anyonehttp://s823.photobucket.com/albums/zz156/beefy806/?action=view&current=TidalWave.jpg

Not at Thorpe park but at Alton towers I managed to slip between the station and the car on corkscrew and few more feet and I doubt I would have been able to get my foot out although my man pride was sqaushed a bit!

[EZRider]

This thread makes me paranoid!Are these things rare but because you go all the time you inevitably witnessed a few incidents?Also please tell me it's not too bad for chavs really?

[Millie27]

Also please tell me it's not too bad for chavs really?

The chavs are normally alright, unless you or someone else provokes them.. for example by 'looking at them' the wrong way. I would just ignore them and pretend that they're not there & it should be fine. When I was in the queue for Samurai, I saw someones flip phone fall out of their pocket and it floated down to the ground like a feather. It was so strange. I think it snapped on impact though.
