Just looking at that picture, it could have turned out A LOT worse.
Kudos to Intamin on another success!

Stop trying to play mod and also, this isn't that old of news so relax.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

I have a feeling this happened due to poor maintenance in the park. I think that parks should stop buying from Intamin unless that parks knows how to properly maintain there rides.

I'm going to put this as nicely as I can, because I'm not a big fan of Intamin.

Intamin makes products that think "outside the box", so these products need a maintenance team that can support a ride that is unique. Now, I'm not completely blaming the maintenance, but, I do have a big feeling that they had a bit to do with it.

^ Wrong ride. Mumbo Jumbo was the one that stalled due to a poncho.

There seems to be a bit of misguided hate here...Expedition Everest is a Vekoma creation.
