Overhead some lady last week telling her group that she heard that TTD was closed because someone had fallen out and died.

Wow, that webcam picture sure has made it around. I believe it was originally posted here.

Heh, I overheard someone say that a train had gotten stuck at the apex for four hours and that a worker had to "hand-crank" the thing down. I'm not quite sure what "hand-crank" meant, but I didn't want to ask.

You should see some of the e-mail I get.

I hate that college humor site. They rip off images and toss their name on them. Case in point:

Imagine how many black or red outs we'd see out of that.

I keep hearing people talking about someone died of an aneurism from this ride.

When I went to the dentist, someone heard that someone died because they got hit by a canadian geese(goose?) or something. I wonder how some these rumors get started?

Someone once told someone at the desk that they heard someone had choked on their gum and died while riding. Another desk clerk was told that they heard the train flew off the track and landed half-way across the midway...;)

The train flying off the track makes sense - I could see someone telling someone else about how the tire flew off, and that person somehow interpreting it that the train flew off. Kind of like that game telephone. But the others? Eck
