It says at the entrance to each ride how many tickets are required and on the main tariff boards by each ticket office it says something like 'Individual Ride Tickets £1.60 each'... Obviously wristbands are more prominent on the signs because that's the option most visitors want to go for and...

That's absolutely not the case, individual ride tickets are still available, who told you otherwise?

Whilst it's true that the 2 million figure is probably total footfall in the park, that's still higher than there's ever been. Even if a percentage of those people didn't buy wristbands, more people did than ever before... So it is a fairly big deal! Even with no new rides for 2009...

To Hull And Back Hull Fair - 10th October 2009 The plan was this... Friday night: London all-nighter Saturday: Hull Fair Sunday: Home So it began. We arrived in London on Friday evening and promptly went on the Merlin Entertainments Merlin London Merlin Eye, after visiting the 4D thing...

I have ADHD, although it's nowhere near as bad as when I was diagnosed.. I was 8 at the time, and I would visit theme parks quite regularly. And never in that time did I ever have a problem queuing, I was always fully able to and aware of what was going on and why. Ritalin or no Ritalin. The...

If someone spits from a ride I'm operating, security are promptly alerted and the offender may have their wristband promptly removed. How would you feel if someone else's spit hit you? Don't do it.

The operator Estopped the ride, an Estop cuts the power, the train would have had some momentum left and continued to roll. It won't stop where it is, particularly if there was a good number of riders at the time. Heavier train, more momentum. I don't think we're ever going to get 'all the...

The toddler left a bouncy castle, went round to the back of it and managed to climb under the fence of the neighbouring attraction, the Go Gator, next to the lowest point of the track. The op hit the Estop as soon as she could, but because of the nature of the ride it continued on its...

At the last count it was £145 plus Gift Aid, but there's more to come, people who haven't done it online etc, and there's still time to sponsor if you haven't yet: http://www.justgiving.com/60milechallenge

The wait for opening was made very easy, TP were awesome. As soon as I got there I was given access to the shower room in cast reception, then when I'd had a shower I was given a cup of tea, I then met some of the marketing guys and we went to Saw to get some photos for the local press at that...

The restraint system is identical to Rage, it has two pistons that can only be opened by an electric current.

It's A-B in the most direct way, but on roads...

Pardon me for bumping this... The walk is in two days. I'm excited, yet perhaps slightly scared. I know I'll be able to complete it, but the concept of walking through Hounslow etc at unhuman hours is a bit worrying, and I'm not looking forward to the ache that'll come when I stop moving...

You don't just fall out of a Tivoli Extreme. Generally I find bars aren't checked on them, the ride can't go anywhere unless the bars are closed so the operators just assume everyone is seated correctly.. I imagine this girl must have had both legs on the same side of the seat or something, if...

Rage was deemed the most exciting/thrilling based on presenter Andy Akinwolere's response to each one, tested by heart rate, facial expressions, sweat and various other factors. Some photos from when they filmed it here if you're interested...

The plan is to ride Rage, walk to Saw, ride Saw. Should be fun... That's one word for it, anyway!

In May I will be embarking on a mission! I'm going to walk from Rage to Saw - 60 miles. Details are here: http://www.hurriweb.co.uk/walk/ Please sponsor me if you can!

The rumour I've heard is that the MCBR could potentially fail to catch a fully loaded car if the track is wet, so fins are being added to slow it more, which will of course trim the final section too.

Rage has no such system in operation... This incident yesterday sounds more like a gate pull, one of the z-listers pushing or pulling an auto gate, which would cause the ride to stop.
