Interesting. I did not expect the ride to have some sort of ball-joint on either arm. I will stick with roller-coasters.

I'm just wondering how long it is before they have a failure.

Just seems like too much can go wrong. Heck if just the programming is off it could pull itself apart.

NO THANK YOU!
