At 13:30, Crush was at 60 minutes... it was a busy Saturday, (though the thunderstorm in the early morning might have kept some of the locals at home...) but it looked like - operationally - the parks handled the crowds quite nicely. |

I'm with X on this one, what's a rollercoaster without a few knocks?!!! |

| lil_kim2005 Sun 5/18/2008 3:25p | Some of us cant really afford a few knocks... I for one literally have a metal screw in the side of my head, so when I leaned forward to avoid hitting it, I ended up getting my neck hit by the OTS straps and I couldn't turn my neck to the right for the rest of the day... I hated that ride! I'll try anything once though so I hope that makes me less of a wuss! |

I'm with lil_kim2005 on this one, the last time I rode SM there it threw my old injury so badly that I wasn't able to ride much of anything else for the rest of the day due to the pain I was in, and although there are plenty of things that don't involve much movement for me to do it just isn't quite the same.
So if the choice is ride it and potentially cause myself injury, or do without, I'm afraid I'm on the do without thing..
PS If you read this UK fan I am still trying to get the parcel out to you, we had a loss in the family this past week and I have been travelling a lot the past fortnight so haven't had time to get to a post office. |

| u k fan Tue 5/20/2008 2:48a | No sweat on the parcel. Sorry for your loss.
I guess what I find interesting here is that I don't consider Space Mountain to be that bad. Certainly not as bad as Indy or even RnRc on occasion!!! |

| smedley Tue 5/20/2008 3:00a | <-- doesn't ride indy either, RnRc I have no problems with, and the odd occasion I am ok on SM, but it's not worth taking the risk because of the bad ones... |

| u k fan Tue 5/20/2008 4:02a | I assume BTM is fine?
This is quite interesting really because even the most innocuous attraction has the potential to affect an existing condition I guess
I nearly typed "I wonder who many people have hobbled off of Snow White?", but then I thought better of it!!! |

| smedley Tue 5/20/2008 7:25a | yes BTM is fine, the worst one I've had was actually on Test Track at WDW, they stopped the ride suddenly as they were filming for TV on another car, and put me out of 'riding' action for 4 days :(
In fairness the warnings are there so I pays my money and takes my chances, no injuries from Snow White yet ;)
