What's a fire? And, why does it...what's the word? BURNNNNNNNNNN

See, I've been singing, "The roof, the roof, the roof is on FIRE!". I may be dating myself just a tad.

"We don't need no water..." I better not finish that.

YES REFURB THAT RIDE YES. I pray no one was hurt but I don't think anyone was and the situation seemed like it was handled well!

I'll drink to that!

So what does this mean? Will the ride be closed for some time now? or only a couple days? I really hope this creates the incentive to fix the terrible show quality inside.

I read that it was back open.

I read that it was back open.

apparently the fire was small and contained. How could they just open the ride back up though, the fire looked fairly substantial on that roof.

All is fine and the ride is up and running again, looks like we all have to keep dreaming. You know whats sad if the fire touched the rock work or any of the fake grass Tdo is probably just going to do nothing in the next few months to touch any of that up.

 

[bethymouse]

No more fake grass.
I hope they don't have to "change" any of Wishes!

 

[Communicore]

Budget I guess.

 

[toolsnspools]

Que the 6 month delay opening 7DMT so they can make fire proof grass.

 

[JimboJones123]

I am pretty sure this means another delay for the opening of Snow White.

 

[Mrs.Toad]

Why? Why not SGE….???? (smacks forehead and raises arms to the heavens)

 

[Nemo14]

I thought they used shredded aluminum for "grass" (?)

 

[wdwmagic]

It is open this morning, so must be no significant issue.

Aluminum burns quite nicely once it gets to its ignition point then it becomes a class D fire and cannot be put out by water! It's why Aluminum powder and machine shop swarf is handled carefully and stored OUTDOORS

How do Fire Departments access these kinds of things. I'd assume through back entrances, but do they drive firetrucks down walking paths through the park or is it as simple as using fire hose already implanted throughout the park? Always been curious about that...
