Paris - worker fataly struck by coaster train. This park does not appear to have the best safety record.
Don't think so, he's been to Land of Legends Park and Agorix Tempaparkwas this a park Shaun was at a few days ago ?
Looks like an SBF Visa model to me. Almost certainly poor maintenance by the park though.Question is: Is that an SBF Visa unit or some dodgy knock off.

It turns out that he did actually try and visit that park on his trip but it was closed that day, maybe he got a lucky escape!
That ride was actually having maintenance on it when he walked past. Maybe someone didn't put it back together correctly? No excuse though of course.
Yes completely if there were taller guests on the ride whose head would have been higher than the restraint ….. and luck it landed upside down from a leg’s perspectiveThe whole park was closed that day (as the park is closed on Sundays and Mondays when he visited) and that they were doing maintenance on the ride whilst it was closed. He does say that it probably would have just been the coaster and the drop tower that he’d have done if it were open.
But like you say you’d have to wonder if the ride wasn’t reassembled correctly, it’s pretty horrifying to think how bad the injuries could have been given that the ride is reported to have had the seating gondola detach and fall off during the ride cycle.
I saw a video on a news article of it happening, not going to link it though of course as it's not nice viewing.The whole park was closed that day (as the park is closed on Sundays and Mondays when he visited) and that they were doing maintenance on the ride whilst it was closed.

my guess would be either Vekoma who’ve supported these sorts of rides in the past or S&S.Oops, thankfully no serious implications but looks like it is going to need a new track piece. And that will no doubt close it for the rest of the season. I presume there is a company out there who can manufacture old Arrow track like this?
