This is a popular topic that is fast moving Guest - before posting, please ensure that you check out the first post in the topic for a quick reminder of guidelines, and importantly a summary of the known facts and information so far. Thanks.
Sky news currently reporting on it with some photos. Looks nasty surprisingly no fatalities. In relation to the Smiler incident this in terms of the failure is on the same level but injuries don't look as bad.
My mate's mate (I know!) was there with her kid and she said it looks horrific. Still people trapped when she was there. I don't live that far but I've never been so not familiar with what the coaster is like.
Looking at the facts so far it seems a miracle if there aren't any deaths. Derailed fully at 30ft, and with those exposed invert designs it won't have had much in the way of cushioning.
This will hurt Towers just as confidence in rollercoaster riding in the UK was finally starting to improve again, Smiler comparisons in the press inevitable. Hope everyone is OK and injuries are minor only.
