It's so fab to get this update. Me and my year group went to Alton around a couple of days after the crash. I remember Leah and what happened to her, especially. So happy for them may they have a lifetime of happiness.

@@dscrerar1111 because it obviously wouldn't happen again? I go every year- I'm going tomorrow. I also went about a week after the crash had happened. No crashes like this in Alton Towers have ever happened. Closest thing to it was on the Runaway Mine Train where the carriages got halved back in 2006. Everyone who went to the hospital (6) for a check-up due to whiplash/ abdominal pain, all left the same day. Otherwise it's been rider issues like a young boy somehow managed to get into the Nemesis ride restricted area in 2002 and got hit by a train, and a girl broke her wrists on Rita due to holding onto the bars before the ride sent in 2005. Nobody has ever died due to Alton Towers rides.

Delighted for Joe and Leah, congratulations to you both. They and Victoria have overcome the physical and psychological challenges of the horrendous accident at such young ages. My mum is nearly 90 and unfortunately she had to undergo an above knee amputation of one of her legs. She has been through a very long journey but she has been determined, hugely independent, stubborn and just hugely hugely brave. She now lives at home, with minimal visits from carers, and though her life is very different, she continues to push herself in her rehabilitation and recovery. She has been encouraged by the incredible staff at Derby Royal amputation department, who have high expectations, positivity and such kindness. I honestly thought they were just trying to keep her spirits up. However she had her prosthetic leg made and is on the ardous and tough journey to walk independently. I quickly realised that though losing a limb it is life changing and deeply traumatic, it is not the end of a person, whether they are old or young. I'm sorry for the essay. I just wanted to that these lovely young people have overcome so much, in a different way to my mum, but the positivity and courage is the same. ❤

Merlin managed to keep a lot of what really went wrong very quiet. Even with the HSE court case, many of their tragic failures are still not publicly known. They made sure to treat the victims extremely well which is although noble of them does not excuse the cover-up that continues to this day.
@edbrown2998
@edbrown2998 6 ай бұрын
There was a lot of reaction after this about how dangerous rollercoasters can be, but make no mistake, if left down to the coaster and its sensors and safety procedures this would never have happened. This was human error and training failures and the fault lies with Merlin, not the ride. Still, so happy that these two could have such a silver lining out of such a devastating situation.
