Do you think they mentioned to the pilots that it had dismembered some crash test dummies before they took off? Like, just as they're strapping them in.... "Oh, by the way, this thing seems to rip the arms off every dummy we send through, so, you know, just be aware that could happen. OK, let 'er rip!" *WHOOSH*

Now there's a thrill ride.

Watched the video...not really impressed.

Pretty sure dummy's with arms flailing around would come off on lots of coasters...they're just trying to sensationalize this one...

Mark Cutmore, team leader of the Blades, a stunt pilot organization, told the Metro: "I am a self-confessed adrenaline junkie, but even as a pilot used to G-force there were some gut-wrenching moments, and I have to admit the near miss element is eye-watering -- you really do feel as if you are going to crash into the structures."

interesting...
