Unverified Reports

This is approximate year, it was when this attraction had first opened and possibly had another name. You go down the large "bumpy slide" scotting on water in a rubber dinghy. as i went over the bumps i literally came out of my dinghy and was lucky to land back in it. there are no safety restraints at all, just you and a rubber dhingy. I'm suprised that there have been no injuries or fatalities on this attraction, if you're unlucky enough to go down the chutes at the side especially as there are no walls or anything just a sheer drop. I have been back to Thorpe Park many times and I will never ever and have never gone on this attraction again as i think it's so dangerous.
