If you really wanted to lose a finger on Space Mtn., you could.It works.
Most of the time.
Other times it leads to off season "adjustments"...
(Obviously not Disney)

Oh I'm well aware. Very well aware.
The fact I can drag my palm on the launch and re-entry tunnels tells a lot. Seeing curved sheet metal wrapped in strategic spots on SM tells even more. Not a good solution at all and really more of a countdown to when something happens.

I understand that when the old broad opened in times of antiquity, the Ancient Romans were shorter than we are today.Oh I'm well aware. Very well aware.

Even more recently BGT said they had removed/modified some support beams after a rider claimed they had bumped their hands while riding Iron Gwazi

Yeah, I’m 6’9”, so whenever I’m on any rollercoaster, I try to shrink down and make myself as tiny as I possibly can. Do you know some rollercoasters have height limits? Real fun to hear that you’re two inches too tall while they strap you in and tell you to watch out

Keeping my hands on the handlebars is the only way to avoid the lateral whiplash and bruised ribs.Great. Now I am going to be too scared to take my hands off the handlebars.

There's a Beast that still bites if you sit in the wrong seats and put your hands up. Unless recent refurbishment changes that.It works.

Ran without the modification for it's first season with a rule of "hold onto restraints" though that didn't do much and people kept smacking the support going 60+mph.

Yeah, but there’s a sign that tells you not to, so no big deal.

That is the fanciest clearance fixture I have ever seen, no wonder it's taking so long to do this

It was developed by the Ancient Egyptians to ensure adequate clearance in the pyramids. The Zach and The Team© had a 27-month archaeological dig in Egypt in search of it. Details matter.

Disney uses it for all their rollercoasters, there’s pics of SDMT using this during testing back in 2014.

Probably using up all the plexiglass that was removed from rides.

Not sure if it’s true or not but I heard the architect of the Pantheon had to stand underneath when they removed the scaffolds haha

It does! I wonder why…
Great. Now I am going to be too scared to take my hands off the handlebars.
Good luck. Most men can't keep their hands off their handlebars.

If you've ever seen the early test run videos of Popeye and Bluto's you understand why things like this are necessary

TRON Legacy is the basis for the music.
Not sure if their is any original music (have to listen again) I couldn’t detect any but the TRON Legacy music works well.
