I am having trouble figuring out if this is real or not.

I say fake. Wouldn't the people standing around freak out if they saw that?

yeah it looks like he comes out of the seat in a weird position.

My gut feeling is...FAKE!

Can't help but be reminded of this:

Gets me every time.

So, yeah. I say fake.

It is probably some sort of coat, as you could tell it has a long sleeve, and what looks to be ripples of "legs" from the lower part.

Yeah after watching a couple of times I have to agree that it is a coat as well. Maybe explains the lack of reaction from the crowd. No one is going to freak out over a fallen coat.

The coat was sorta floating too. A human can't float, yet...

Huh? Humans float. Especially ones that have departed this life.

Hope Floats

I would say fake since its on the kid chriss youtube account...

Hahaha! I'm seriously crying right now.

I think the first one is fake, it looks just like a coat to me.

That second ride sure looked like a great one though.

Actually...they both did.

Okay, I'm going to have to the the Ugly American here.

Sometimes, don't you feel sorry for other countries that have such crappy rides?

The worst is a giant tortilla bowl with no restraints- the DJ in the booth decides the motion. Chicks try to dance, only to fall down, sometimes they bounce out of the ride, or slide out of the door.

And they call that fun.

Well...not to be a pain in the rear again, but that actually did look like fun to me. Especially once they were all sitting and they span the crap out of it.

This video shows a real accident. Not sure what exactly happened, but the man and boy looked to be pretty freaked out!

Cable snapped.

It would be fun with higher walls and a door that closed. It reminds me of the Ladybug ride that used to be by the entrance of The Racer. Metal seats, no restraints, and always a big fat guy sliding into you. There was only a covered chain at the entrance of the ride to keep you in.

After a rain, if you didn't mind getting your butt wet, you could slide all the way around the ride.

Many conspiracy theorists believed this was also fake.

Can someone confirm Intamin's fix for this problem?

I think the first video in this thread shows an individual falling in a manner contrary to the conservation of angular momentum. If it were "real," the "rider" would have fallen at a distinct right-to-left arc, and his rate of descent would have been slightly more gradual, not at the velocity depicted.
