some hurt, no one killed. I'd have to rate this one as fairly spectacular. Cant go wrong with an arm falling off a Miami Trip ride.

Oh dear... I'm always afraid of something like that happening, sometimes when I'm on King Chaos! That's scary, but kind of funny.

It's fortunate that no one was seriously injured. That would be a terrifying experience!

After it happened, I liked how everyone was sitting there like "Huh...interesting."

If I rode it during the accident, I would be singing and doing impressions (YES I CAN!!!!) while waiting to get out.

If My Mom was on this ride, she would be doing lamaze like she would be giving birth to 45-pound twins (She got scared when Vortex at KI stopped for 15 seconds) and needing another change of pants.

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

That thing looked like King Chaos which I always fear someones going to come spilling out of one day.
I bet everyone on that thing had to buy a new pair of pants after that!
