    The risks commonly present in theme park incidents discussed in the article include mechanical failures of rides that have resulted in injuries and deaths. These failures occurred due to a lack of proper maintenance and non-compliance with safety regulations. To prevent such scenarios, the risk management process should be applied by identifying potential risks through investigating ride environments and past accidents, analyzing high-risk rides, controlling risks by removing dangerous rides or improving employee training and safety protocols, and treating risks by transferring ride operations or relocating parks.

    Discussion Questions:

    1. What risks are commonly present in the incidents discussed in the article? Discuss your answer.

    The risks mentioned in the article include an incident in 2005 on the Smiler ride at Alton Towers
    resulting from the failure of a carriage carrying 16 people who were injured, and a 5 million fine to the
    company, and a mechanical failure in 1972 on the Big Dipper at the Battersea Funfair that caused a
    collision that killed five children and injured more. Because of what happened, the fair had to close due
    to a loss of visitors and a bad reputation. The risks mentioned in the article are frequently defined as
    failures. The security of theme parks is in danger. Failure to ensure the safety of the facilities and also a
    failure to comply with health and safety regulations, has tended to result in tragic events occurring on a
    variety of rides and amusement attractions. Injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to broken bones and
    head trauma resulting in brain damage are possible. Accidents on the most dangerous theme park rides
    result in deaths as a result of the danger involved. In the end, it all simply comes down to the rides and
    related mechanical issues that resulted in serious accidents that resulted in multiple injuries and deaths.
    The cause of this incident is a failure to comply with regulations as well as a lack of maintenance
    management, the substitution of out-of-date rides, and inappropriate procedures that put people's lives
    in danger.
