Operator error is never the manufacturers fault. The manufacturer knew exactly how the ride was supposed to be operated and this information was undoubtedly given to the amusement park before they ever put people on the ride. The smiler clearly wasn’t meant to run in any strange or unusual manner the instructions are simply to not ever place 2 trains within the same block zone and the computer followed these instructions perfectly, until a human operator bypassed the computer WITH people onboard.
Just a bit of context: I had to make a video for my dynamics class about collisions, so I chose to cover The Smiler and kill two birds with one stone.
you better get an A
you must have got the best in class
Dude went hard on the math for this video
