@@dodecaheathen Most of the lore surrounding the idea of "correction", as the initial theming was that The Smiler was a correctional process to make people smile more, with the half-way point formerly saying "Half-Way Corrected" on the walls. However, after the crash in 2015, they got rid of all things related to correction because of the implication that the amputations were the correction. There's barely any remnants of The Smiler's initial lore regarding the Ministry of Joy, Dr. Kelman, Miles Cedars, the "Smile. Always." book, and the experiments in the Sanctuary. I think The Smiler deserves the Nemesis Reborn treatment in a few years time and would love to see the lore get reinstated. Sorry for nerding out lol. I just love this ride XD

you won’t. regular employees and engineers can’t override the safety lock that detects if another cart is occupying the track anymore (as what happened with the smiler in 2015, entirely of human error), the ride automatically ceases function if winds of 35mph+ are detected, and the staff are trained way more rigorously to close the ride upon any slight perceived error (which is why the ride has so many delays.). rode it yesterday and didn’t lose a leg, it was my first ever true rollercoaster ride and it was genuinely indescribable. got delayed once so they could remove a faulty cart from the track, but all worked out in the end, front rowers didn’t lose any legs 🫡 not writing this for op, but for any people who were also utterly terrified out of ever attempting to ride any roller coaster after hearing about the crash. i conquered me fear yesterday and it was WAY worth it, so get out there and try something new.

The staff operating were unaware an empty car was on the track (communication error), so they switched the ride back on. Car at top of Lift Hill 1 started going around and then crashed into that empty car. The ride itself actively tried to stop any cars from moving, the idiots operating the thing did an override and caused the crash to occur.
