Body Odour Complaints Causes UK Theme Park to Ban Thrill Rides With Hands in Air


I think this is going a little to far.

I think Steven even mentioned members could submit a story. If you would like to write it up give it a try.

What kind of Roller coaster are you?

^You've never heard of it? I've been seeing advertisements for "Sure" since I was a kid.

I have seen those ads too. I would think raising your hands on a coaster would help with BO...airing that out might help.

Maybe its a regional product? I don't remember seeing it...I'll have to look next time I'm in the store.

I think its a little ridiculous to have a rule against that. That's like saying you can only eat ice cream with a spoon...Kinda anyway. I don't always but my hands up, but I think most people see it as their way of riding.

Everytime I ride a coaster, it valleys. I've never been on a stalled coaster or had one roll back (except Wicked Twister and what was Superman: Ultimate Escape, which does that by design).

I was at SFOT last year, and every one whos been there knows that the dumpsters are right behind the Titan ride queue, and in the Texas heat with the misting fans, the smell is down right rank! Anyways this day it was 10 times worse than ever. Well it turns out that three eastern european guys (wearing muscle shirts) (BTW Polish or Czech by the language they were speaking) were waiting in line and were very obviously the source of the extra smell that day. I was single riding and adjusted my position in the queue to avoid standing /riding in the same train. Murphy's law, somebody else waved them in early and sat in the same car as I right infront of me. I have NEVER smelled BO that bad. And I did a fair amount of camping as a teenager. I am a fairly tolerant person, but I was sick to my stomach afterwards, and not from the ride.
To anyof you who have had to share a ride, line, or train with a smelly sam, I feel your pain, you have my sympathies.

Feel sorry for you riding titan! :P

Haha, the Thorpe Park offcials in that article claim that their rides are 'extremely scary.' Any of you who have been to the park would know much otherwise! It's a really boring park! haha

I've never really had any bad BO experiences at Thorpe Park even when it has been 25C+ haha, British people LOVE to complain about everything.
