dejavu miscatch video

[tp41190]

Here is a video of the last ever miscatch around 7:30. The miscatch was on tower 1 and when we walked up to it it was sitting in the brakes.

Then I filmed it valleying back and forth until it stopped.

Thanks for posting those videos! I love seeing when rides malfunction - as long as it doesn't interfere with my wait times.

I like the V2 one. I actually was on V2 this year when it was E-Stopped.

[tp41190]

Thanks.

If you are interested there is also a Knex coaster POV, and a necropolis porta-potty video on my channel.

I got a miscatch on Deja Vu earlier this year. All the people on the train were freaking out and I was having a blast. When the train finally stopped in the station a mechanic asked me if I was okay. I told him I've been waiting for a miscatch since Deja Vu opened and that it was fun. He gave me a strange look and then pushed the train back a few inches.

I was in line for V2 a few years ago when there was an E-Stop because someone stuck there arm out towards the train when it launched. The ride operator in the booth said it stopped because a sensor detected his arm. I've been on V2 twice when it stopped during the launch but I don't know if they were E-Stops or not.

I was on that Miscatch, funny thing is I was on that ride using an exit pass I got from a tower 1 miscatch I had a few weeks ago

I guess i can say I was on Deja Vu's final F***up

I don't think anything will beat the one Aero filmed in '04.

[DejaVuGurl1203]

Ahahah. I'll never forget that miscatch I had in the summer. I took pics while we were just sitting there.

I don't think anything will beat the one Aero filmed in '04.

"Dutch piece of crap..."

[zjohn1988]

Do you clips of the miscatch and estop taking place right when it occurs?

[tp41190]

The V2 E-Stop was about 3-5 mins after the stop.

And the dejavu one was filmed about 5 mins after I saw it. We were about to get in line for Raging Bull when I looked at dejavu, it went up then down. I was like, "holy sh*t lets run over there". So we were able to run there pretty fast, then when we got there we waited about 2 mins for it to release.

Those were neat.

[tp41190]

Yeah, i wish I could have gotten the V2 "bloop" sound or the siren.....i already miss those sounds

I do too, as long as no one gets hurt.

Thanks for posting the videos, it's nice to see our 2001 coasters acting fussy again! It's too bad i've never had a miscatch, i've only got a mispark on Vu.

I just found this video on YouTube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=uzM8Pnq_cLI

It appears as though the train had a miscatch or vallied in between the second tower and the vertical loop.

[rcoaster]

^ Delete the period at the end and the video will work.... also i think this was already shown but still! any other miscatch videos? I'd love to see them!

[DejaVu2001]

^^"The url contained a malformed video id."

[coasterkid94]

^Sorry about that. I believe that the URL should be working properly now. Here are some other videos that I found of broken/malfunctioning rides:

The first ride appears to be some type of roller coaster where each row is an individual train (similar to RC). The second video is of a broken ride on SUF where the train got stuck on the chain lift.

[zjohn1988]

HAHA I love the first one!

[DvuRulz]

Hahahaha! I saw the miscatch! That was funny!

[Trailblazer Tony]

Great videos...and funny too!!!

[Danhockey04]

That first video you posted coasterkid is great, that is hilarious to see that kid slamming into that guy's car and getting him mad. Good laughs.

[DvuRulz]

This video makes me think of all the fun times of laughing at Vu that I will be missing It was always so funny (in a good way, of course) to laugh at Déjà Vu for getting messed up all the time. But that comedy will always continue, even though he aint at sfgam no more.

[cycamps]

Maybe TDK will have some humor...???

[tp41190]

^Maybe, but not as much as Vu because its only a mouse. Vu was funny because it was like "hmmm, is Vu open....I think I see it testing". Then you walk over there and everyone is lined up. So you watch then theres a miscatch
