        I guess you're joking, but as a local who knows what that water is like this is probably going to be really bad for someone.

        How is this not being reported on your news channel? After the smiler incident it was constant reporting (rightly so)

        This looks like it may have cost a child her life. Not really a difference at all. She didn't jump...she fell.

        true I guess, as someone who worked rides for theme parks for a couple years. You have to stand up to fall out.

        Not on this ride. I worked at Drayton manor...there are no restraints and it bounces along on fast flowing water against boulders.

        There is no need for restraints as this is compliant with the law and the manufacturer specifications.

        I know there is no need for restraints. It's never had them and been there for about 20yrs. Just pointing out it would be possible to fall

        If you didn't follow the safety messages and you stood up or something similar.
