Sequel time! I will soon be posting my videos on YouTube; But I wanted to give you all a heads-up. I have witnessed a Breakdown, and caught it all on film...sure, it's not as long as Troy's; but it's neat to see what goes down when the HH workers can't seem to get the Water Curtain to stop pouring down...
As a bonus "sequel-of-the-sequel", I was given the privilege of being the first person ever (I think) to POV and take a ride around the lobby ;D, which happened after a worker failed to stop my car after moving the one ahead of it up so I could get out via the Exit path...so, instead, I rode around the lobby, past the count's front side, and got out via the entrance...all while capturing it on film...

Great vid! The worker trying to get the water off is Glen. Did you ever find out why the cars stopped? Was it a breakdown elsewhere that made the track blow or was it only your car? I don't understand why Glen just didnt push you guys up some and then kick the switch for the waterfall. If your car was not throwing the switch, it would have went off. Odd indeed.

Well, the car in front of us was there when we exited, just waiting, and the 4 or so workers were trying to shut it off; our car was stopped, so the other car wouldn't be hit. I don't know if it was a problem with the turn-off on the pump, but our car arrived in the exit "tunnel" to find this catastrophe.
I know I saw Scotty, but I never got a chance to speak with him. I spoke with some other workers though; some were interns of an Asian nationality; The others were what seemed to be full time workers. One of them asked If I knew you; and your site. He had a mustache. Was that Glen? He asked why I was taking so much video and pictures; and why I kept ridding.

Oh, BTW
Now that I look at what you are saying; it's clearer to me. The events happened at opposite days. The one with the lobby was just due to a family that was confused about getting out of the cars, and our car came out, and must have flew past the area beyond live after it was stopped. We over-rode the exit area, and ended up getting out were people get in.

I think the guy you spoke with was Richard. Was he wearing an orange and yellow shirt? He has been a fan of the site for a long time.
