This season we begin by taking a look at the horrific number of theme park accidents that have occurred as Fairgrounds reopened all over the world after pandemic lockdowns. It may be easy to blame the pandemic, but all the pandemic has done is exacerbate already existing problems within the industry - poor staff training, inadequate safety procedures and lacklustre ride maintenance.

Springshot, Morey's Piers, New Jersey
Desert Storm, Castles n Coasters, Phoenix
Poltergeist, Six Flags Fiesta, San Antonio
