      The statement also noted an unrelated incident in 1997 when a part failed on a lift chain that pulls trains to the top of the first hill. There were no injuries then.

      I was on it when this happened. We were going up the first hill and was at the very top and all of a sudden the ride stopped, we were stuck up there for like 15 or 20 minutes. They almost had everybody walk down the stairs to get off.

                We didn't have to walk down, they got it fixed so we didn't have to.

                  I'm pretty sure its a freak accident. They do regular testing and maintenance every morning. U gotta expect there is gonna be failure once in a blue moon. Thats the risk u take riding those kind of rides. I'm with matt on this one. Have fun riding the ring of fire. Atleast the wildthing doesnt have wheels on it and wasn't set up in 2 hours by people getting paid minimum wage and having 5 teeth.

                  no race car? becuz homeowner...

                      That really sucks

                      If your ice skateing down the street and a wheel falls off your canoe, how many pancakes will it take to top a dog house?

                      None, because ice cream has no bones.
