Thoughtless, idiotic vandalism.
The guy swimming in the rapids risked himself and the lives of others. The shark surfer probably damaged the anamatronics. I hope they were thrown out of the park and banned for life. |

When idiots like this die as a result of their own stupidity. Who do the parent/loved one blame. Not thier precious little angels that for sure. | ||

That is the name of the game these days, the blame culture. Nobody ever accepts they are at fault, it is always someone else to blame. |

I would just point out, this like many cases is just a small minority of younger people.
The sad thing is H&S will probably make it compulsory to wear seat belts or OTSR!! It is always a very small minority that spoil it for the vast majority. I think a bit more self responsibility needs to be taken especially in situations like this. |

May I suggest people view these videos and press the Flag button and label them as dangerous acts. If these videos don't get on YouTube or are removed then maybe idiots will stop this dangerous behaviour. If you don't give them the publicity then they might give up. | ||

its idiots like this that ruin it for everybody else, if anything had happen to them, they would be sueing the park. They should have had a life time ban. | ||

Unfortunatley, Magic, this is not the case and there are a small minority of peolpe who find it amusing to push boundries weather they have seen videos of this nature or not. | ||

what were the staff doing at the time? where was security? | ||
| Nimmykins |
Flagging done.
Thanks for pointing that out Marcus. We don't want to encourage them. |

I agree with that, it's not all the 'youth of today', just stupid idiots like those people who give us that title! Well done for pointing out the flagging thing! Amy |
