Woman falls out of a wacky worm!

Woman in second row at the start of the clip (whose restraint does not look down at all), is not there at the end of the clip. You don't see her come out but its clearly at the bottom of the "big drop" towards the end of the regular worm-circuit.

Not good anyway - was in Brazil.


There's an article with more info if you can make your self click on a Daily Heil link ; _https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...rock-survives-brazil-roller-coaster-fall.html

Looks like she was filming the children in the front row with her phone, so likely their mother. Hopefully she wasn't badly injured and the incident wasn't too traumatic for the kids. Should be quite the POV, if she posts it online. 😜
 
How is this possible?
When the train is the cause of this, what could be wrong with that train?
The wooden bars supporting the rails broke due to a "fault", according to park bosses. When those wooden supporting bars broke causing the rails to sag, the front and possibly other parts of the train would likely have dug into the wooden slats resulting in the holes pictured.

Did the train manage to complete the circuit? That must have been quite the ride!
 
As of yesterday, PortAventura have included Hurakan Condor to their Express One skip-the-line system.

On a side note, Dragon Khan has been operating with just one train lately. Supposedly the other two need to be repaired, but I am assuming the park won't invest in them if they are going to redo Khan.
