    About the RMC Son of Beast, I did actually make one in Planet Coaster and called it "Grandson of Beast".
    It's not the most original name, I know, but considering 90% of my Planet Coaster creations are named after Ratchet & Clank characters or NBA player's nicknames, it's out of my wheelhouse.

    Okay but I love the idea of an RMC version of son of beast-not a remake, but more like an homage-except call it mother of beast and just make her absolutely relentless. Runs in the family 😌
    Side note, to be fair, the shed on mystic Timbers is VERY anticlimactic. I, too, would be disappointed to get a glorified brake run after all that hype!

    I think the sad thing about the last entry and rumours like it is how much this can fuel media demonization of roller-coaster safety. How many times have you seen tabloids hype up the panic of guests on a train stranded in a block section? That's not to say that being stuck on a broken-down roller coaster doesn't warrant panic, but when you see headlines like "I thought the restraints were going to unlock and we were all going to fall" you do start to wonder if they're all run by killjoys and fuddy-duddies.

    Two more things to add to the Vekoma/Arrow thing:
    One other factor contributing to Arrow's first bankruptcy was the competition with Schwarzkopf (who also suffered from that). Parks would ask one manufacturer to quote a coaster design that they wanted to build. Then they took the quote to the other manufacturer, who would give a lower quote - which they took back to the first one. Rinse and repeat until one bails out, and you get the coaster of your dreams for the lowest possible price with the manufacturer hardly making any profit. Back then, there was nobody else in the western world who would have been able to build coasters of that scale.
    One Heide Park's Big Loop. They had name plates on them that clearly read "Arrow-Huss", which indicates that they were purchased from what became of the original Arrow Development after going belly-up for the first time.
    This pretty much backs the facts that you present here. 🙂
    When it comes to nets catching the trains, people who believe this are the same who believe that coaster cars explode when they derail and crash to the ground, like they do in RTC. Who cares that they are is nothing explosive to them...

    If I´m not mistaken Vekoma buying the Trains from Arrow was part of the license agreement. Plus AFAIK the Vekoma Swinging Turns model was a similar license deal for Arrow´s Suspended Coaster with the original Trains also being bought from Arrow.
    Plus, Vekoma was never afraid to try new things and Innovate, I mean, they struck Gold with the Boomerang Model just 5 years after their first Coaster, developed 2 Coaster models of their own within their first decade (MK-700 and MK-900) that unlike their Arrow based coasters are still very smooth and hate the SLC as much as you want, when B&M introduced the Inverted Coaster and it was a instant hit, Vekoma developed, sold and built the first SLC in under 2 years of the first B&M Invert opening. And that´s a sign of a manufacturer being capable of quickly adapting to new trends.

So when I first saw them in the 90's.i automatically knew they were to catch loose items. I mean no other idea entered my head as to why they were there. To say they are there to catch a falling train, loaded with heavy people is beyond laughable. And you said an adult said that? Imma pray he was just trying to be funny but i doubt it.

    A couple of things the whole 500 ft TT2 rumor was just stupid. Another rumor that bugs the crap out of me personally is the "BGT is getting a giga rumor" they literally have a height limit around 230 ft so unless someone is willing to donate the money to BGT to build a 70+ ft deep trench it's not happening. Another reason for the nets being placed there is any material from the brakes possibly grease or even as the brake pads wear out the debris from them could be caught by the net and not fall on guests

      The thing is, the structure wasn't well built from the start and RMCs can really tear on their structure with their extreme forces, which would make that ride a nightmare to maintain.

    @1:30 A silent lift system already exists on rollercoasters like Kondaa at Walibi Belgium that uses a chain (seen in the first shot of the video).... the clunking noises from the anti-rollback are not heard on this ride. it uses the same sort of mechanism as the magnetic breaks... if the train moves forward on the lift hill the catch is pushed away, but if the train ever moves backwards or slows down enough the catch drops down due to the magnetic forces not being there anymore..... somewhat like a reversed magnetic break

    That last one about the net does sound like the complete bs I'd say. I wasn't there of course, so I don't know in what tone they said it, but I can totally imagine myself being bored in a queue with some friends, then spotting the net and deciding to have some fun by telling something like that. The friends would know I'm just ffing around, and just reply in a way like "Oh really, damn, that's crazy" or whatever, or maybe even come up with their own addition to the lie.

    The Kings Island shed was such a failure of marketing. I never thought there was going to be a drop track or launch, but hyping the shed up for months just for it to be a brake run with some theming was such a bad move by the park. Literally anything they realistically could’ve put in there would’ve been a disappointment.

    In the early 2000's, I remember hearing a rumor that a train on Millennium Force rolled back into the station and killed multiple passengers. I guess whoever started that rumor didn't hear the characteristic clanking on the lift hill and thought that meant there wasn't any anti roll back device.
