I won't go on anything these days though, I've seen too many horror stories on TikTok about broken seats, derailed rides and lost limbs  .

Half of what you see on TikTok (especially when it comes from anyone under the age of 21) ought to be taken with a pinch of salt. That incident in Alton Towers in 2015 was one of the first and last incidents I’ve credibly heard of involving someone getting stuck or losing half a limb (and, I mean, bless them). It’s not as common as you seem to think.
