I haven't, although this fat German kid once got stuck in one of the pipes. Not sure if they ever got him out.

Does it count if you thought you had stopped due to the painfully slow speed?! :D

The only effect i have witnessed not working is the TV room projection, so were using a member of staff to explain what's happening :)

I got stuck for a couple of minutes when there seemed to be a problem or something with a boat in the unloading station, there were about 4 boats all stuck behind. Stuck in the strobe lighting squirell bit wasnt the most exciting of places to get stuck on the ride..

Hang on a moment...
You just climbed out of your boat and walked through the ride?
What on earth is "backstage" anyway?!

I somehow doubt this tale. :?

But the ride operator's room is at the point where you disembark the boat to enter the television room, not through a fire exit

Despite being a highly stupid and potentially dangerous thing to do (not to mention the damage you could cause to the theming), that's also just...not the way out. You should never leave the ride unless instructed to.

Could Anybody make the theming worse? If anything damaging it would make it look better

addy2503, I somewhat doubt that you've done the stuff you have stated and as Margrathea has stated if you did so you were highly stupid for doing it and could have got yourself into danger.

Despite that aswell im sure a member of staff would have seen you on CCTV at either batching or unloading and would have put a tannoy out at least for you to remain seated.

I never said that I've actually done that, I just said that the theming is bad

I was reffering to leaving the boat without permission.

You're confusing him with ATJoseph who posted beforehand. They have the same avatar.

And both their names start with an 'A'. I thought it was the same person, was halfway through writing a rather sarcastic responce until I realised the difference :?
