When I was at CP about two weeks ago, little did i know what horror would come upon me before the day was done. Just befor I had to leave, I had realized that I had ridden every coaster accept for the Blue Streak. At the time I was just getting off the Raptor, so I was close the the Blue Streak and i decided to go on it. I walked through the que, and in to the station, and entered the car. I went through the usual hill and bunny hops of the first half, then on the second last bunny-hop my head got jerked forward, and i hit my head on the front of the car and it started bleed profucely. when the ride was over i had to fill out a form tell everything that happened in case i came back and sued CP, even the girl next to me had to fill some thing out too. But i will hold no grudges, i still will always love roller coasters and CP

Hmm sounds bad. The only time I ever got hurt there was acctually at soak city, I bled too and my grandma had to fill out those papers. But on BS, sounds odd.

Yes Matt, that is bad. Although it's not as bad as it sounds. Its only a small gash on his head. But I still think you should have gotten those free passes... Once I got a bloody nose on the Big Dipper (SFWoA) but I didn't have to fill out any forms. But I guess my injury wasn't as bad as Matt's.

Ouch...just think about all the trouble people had to go through the first couple of years on Magnum before the re-profiling of the 3rd hill of Magnum. People came back with bloody noses from bashing their faces on the cars.

The main problem with Magnum was that third drop, everyone always said that 53 was the wrost row to be in and was the most violent.

that's horrible. I bashed my head into the frong rail at night coming down the first hill when I was 9! I hit the side of my face and my nose, it hurt. I cried through the whole ride and then ran off crying, it was very unpleasant. But, to this day 9yrs later I still ride that rollercoaster.
