Nine guests have been killed on Disneyland attractions since the park's opening in 1955. All the deaths (save the most recent) were the result of guests who apparently ignored safety instructions and/or defeated rides' safety mechanisms. May 1964: Mark Maples, a 15-year-old Long Beach, CA, resident, was killed when he tried to stand up on the Matterhorn Bobsleds. Maples (or his companion) foolishly unbuckled his seatbeat and attempted to stand up as their bobsled neared the peak of the mountain. Maples lost his balance and was thrown from the sled to the track below, fracturing his skull and ribs and causing internal injuries. He died three days later. June 1966: Thomas Guy Cleveland, a 19-year-old Northridge, CA, resident, was killed when he attempted to sneak into Disneyland along the Monorail track. Cleveland scaled the park's sixteen-foot high outer fence on a Grad Nite and climbed onto the Monorail track, intending to jump or climb down once inside the park. Cleveland ignored a security guard's shouted warnings of an approaching Monorail train and failed to leap clear of the track. He finally climbed down onto a fiberglass canopy beneath the track, but the clearance wasn't enough -- the oncoming train struck and killed him, dragging his body 30 to 40 feet down the track. August 1967: Ricky Lee Yama, a 17-year-old Hawthorne, CA, resident, was killed when he disregarded safety instructions and exited his People Mover car as the ride was passing through a tunnel. Yama slipped as he was jumping from car to car and was crushed to death beneath the wheels of oncoming cars. June 1973: Bogden Delaurot, an 18-year-old Brooklyn resident, drowned trying to swim across the Rivers of America. Delaurot and his 10-year-old brother managed to stay on Tom Sawyer Island past its dusk closing time by climbing the fence separating the island from the burning settlers' cabin. When they decided to leave the island a few hours later, they chose to swim across the river rather than call attention to their rule-breaking by appealing to cast members for help. Because the younger brother did not know how to swim, Delaurot tried to carry him on his back as he swam to shore. Bogden Delaurot went down about halfway across the river. The younger boy remained afloat by dogpaddling until a ride operator hauled him aboard a boat, but Bogden was nowhere to be found. His body was not located by searchers until the next morning. 7 June 1980: Gerardo Gonzales, a recent San Diego high school graduate, was killed on the People Mover in an accident much like the one that had befallen Ricky Lee Yama thirteen years earlier. Gonzales, in the early morning hours of a Grad Nite celebration, was climbing from car to car as the People Mover entered the SuperSpeed Tunnel adjacent to the former America Sings building. Gonzales stumbled and fell onto the track, where an oncoming train of cars crushed him beneath its wheels and dragged his body a few hundred feet before being stopped by a ride operator. 4 June 1983: Philip Straughan, an 18-year-old Albuquerque, New Mexico, resident, also drowned in the Rivers of America in yet another Grad Nite incident. Straughan and a friend -- celebrating both their graduations and Straughan's eighteenth birthday -- had been drinking quite heavily that evening. They sneaked into a "Cast Members Only" area along the river and untied an inflatable rubber maintenance motorboat, deciding to take it for a joyride around the river. Unable to adequately control the boat, they struck a rock near Tom Sawyer Island, and Straughan was thrown into the water. His friend travelled back to shore to seek help, but Straughan drowned long before his body was finally located an hour later. 3 January 1984: Dolly Regene Young, a 48-year-old Fremont, CA, resident, was killed on the Matterhorn in an incident remarkably similar to the first Disneyland guest death nearly twenty years earlier. About two-thirds of the way down the mountain Young was thrown from her seat into the path of an oncoming bobsled, her head and chest becoming pinned beneath its wheels. An examination of Young's sled revealed that her seatbelt was not fastened at the time of the accident, but because she was riding alone in the rear car of a sled no one could determine whether or not she had deliberately unfastened her belt. 24 December 1998: In a tragic Christmas Eve accident, one Disneyland cast member and two guests were injured (one fatally) when a rope used to secure the sailing ship Columbia as it docked on the Rivers of America tore loose the metal cleat to which it was attached. The cleat sailed through air and struck the heads of two guests who were waiting to board the ship, Luan Phi Dawson, 33, of Duvall, Washington, and his wife, Lieu Thuy Vuong, 43. Dawson was declared brain dead two days later and died when his life support system was disconnected. This accident resulted in the first guest death in Disneyland's history that was not attributable to any negligence on the part of the guest (it was the result of a combination of insufficiently rigorous ride maintenance and an insufficiently experienced supervisor's assuming an attraction operator's role) and prompted a movement for greater government oversight of theme park operations and safety procedures. 5 September 2003: A 22-year-old man, Marcelo Torres of Gardena, California, died, and several other guests were injured, when a locomotive separated from its train along a tunnel section of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Torres bled to death after suffering blunt force trauma of the chest. Anyone know of any deaths at Australian Parks? or serious injuries? I know of the Luna Park deaths on the ghost train and the drowning at Adventure World, what others have happened?

SUPER 6 RACER - Now Opened, advertised as Largest Fastest in Australia, only 6 lanes tho, Pretty odd of them opening it half way throught the season

i rekon both are wikkid, because SE is more current its easierr to be more excited about that, but wen we see these "Aussie First" attractions at DWaterpark se might be distant memory

id say village parks known about this for a while that s why they expanded WNW, I think its wikkid tho Water based attractions really suits Australias Climate, How much money has been invested into WNW over the years? does it outweigh 56mil by much?

Im pretty sure they were the ones that owned it then im sure they still do , There Kids were staff there doing tht toboggans and grass ski, musta been there grandad doin the water stuff and his wife doing admin etc

procto man found your head up there too,

when they testing the ride with people on it? they should have competition to be a rider when they test it with people on, or do they use wieghts to simulate the wieght of passengers??

if it was a joke its pretty lame, the fact that most dont get that its even a joke, being a rollercoaster/thempark forum and it sayin Park most ppl are going to think "themepark" not industrial park etc

whys the original post say "Sydneys Newest Park" when its a industrial estate????

i dont get it, is it going to be another themepark?? or is a road interchange getting built at the site, the page dosent say anything

Wipeout

still Canadas Wonderland is a fair way from other US parks, Its main visitors are people from Ontario and elsewhere in Canada

Australia's Wonderland had some association with "Paramount" but later was sold off, Its sister park I think was "Canada's Wonderland" which is Canadas most visited park, Its funny how that park flourished and well Australias didnt as Canada and Australia have simular population and economic status, maybe more toursits go there

be good if some1 could get some footage of it being tested

yea cedar point ranks at the top of the top if not the best, cant say, havent been there but it looks the best, I dont think they have different parks they only have the one in Ohio, is that right? So I dont see how Australia would get a Cedar Point, espec as its named after its location, That parks so good cos all there effort goes into the one park not 7 or 8 or whatever, but yea any new park would be very welcome

is that when they put the trains on and test it? whens the testing going to take place, will they do it at nite to keep it all secret?

When will the "Tornado" be openin? is it already being constructed or is that later in there plan?

yea i see where u comin from i was thinking of like they were gonna build somethin simular to the original "DisneyLand" in Anahiem and just put Mickey with a cowboy hat ridin a kangaroo or some ...... I think Australia needs a decent thrill park yea Dreamworlds alright, but something like a Six Flags would be good, although Disney would bring more tourists! so maybe they build disney first and then some many ppl flock to se qld from international places and then they build a six flags afta seeing how sucsessful disney was, like thats gonna happen anytime soon tho but hey its possible, I dont think coasters are everything, I enjoy the whole experience themeing etc, but Australia as yet dosent have a World Class coaster, and a Six Flags would bring it -

id say there definitly would be 2, one of movie worlds high points is its on ride capacity so they wouldnt wana let that down

i rekon a six flags be way better, yea disney is the original theme park but its more for younger children and they dont specialise in many thrill rides there focus is more on themeing, forget disney get a six flags
