After the park said they never wanted to open a prototype again after the debacle with De Vliegende Hollander/The Flying Dutchmen prototype.

    The ICON Park accident is probably the craziest thing to happen this year, although it doesn't fit the vibe of this video. I think it is the reason Busch Garden's Falcon's Fury is still closed. Granted different manufacturers and ICON made errors, but the tilt makes the ride much more dangerous. The seat under your seat is the primary restraint. When you tilt forward you can slide off your seat putting much more responsibility on the OTSR.

    • @RayDLX
      @RayDLX Год назад +5

      I don't think Fun Times had any fault. The ride was safe had it been operated as designed but Icon Park messed with the censors without approval from Fun Times and made it accessible to larger riders.

    • @PhoenixTTD
      @PhoenixTTD Год назад

      @@RayDLX legally yeah but still there is the issue of the tilt. A big dude has his center of gravity too far forward and you cannot staple with OTSR because you need to breathe. I think the parks realized the margin for error was less than they thought.

    Also love the ridiculous quirkiness of B&M building shuttle AND family wing coasters in the same year. Their lack of a budget/family model after their family invert model flopped is their biggest weakness, and I hope smaller wing coasters are as surprisingly intense as smaller inverts. Also, as stunning a gamble as a Surf Coaster is, at least nobody else is crazy enough to try another stand-up (let alone a launched one.) And if it fails? B&M's been there before, they can pivot to launched/family *floorless* coasters with new trains, and I am 100% here for it.

    One side note that California Great America is located in a zoning area by the city of Santa Clara to be an "amusement park". So there can be no housing developments (,currently) on that plot of land, unless the city decides to re-zone this area. Which at this time seems pretty unlikely, because even the city was overwhelmed by Cedar Fair's announcement, without any communication between the 2 parties.
    So we'll see how this develops in the future.

    As a parent to Disney castmembers, yes I am glad Paycheck is gone, but the issue remains - to my children's concern - the pay disparity between CEO and everyone else. One should, with a manager's position in the parks, be able to afford something greater than a one bedroom apartment in Anaheim. Not every position in the parks can or should be filled with high school and college aged adults. Sorry I went down the "worried parent" route. Anyway, great list and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both.
