Who In The World Is Bort?

Bart might be a naughty, stubborn, misunderstood, rowdy, and possibly dangerous kid, but he doesn’t deserve to be treated like this. How would you like it if your name was misspelled like this for the entire world to see? They really did him dirty on this one.

Then again, this is a dark secret for super Simpsons fans. If you’re among them, you’ll remember the episode where the eldest child and only son of Homer and Marge Simpson couldn’t find a souvenir with his name and opted for a “Bort” one, only to discover hundreds of Borts are out there.

Slingshot – Six Flags

Nope! Here are another one of those rides we wouldn’t dare ride in a million years. It only has two cables, and it’s called Slingshot. Basically, you’ll be a human-sized pebble ejected out of an enormous rubber band. But if you’re curious, it’s located in California’s Six Flags Magic Mountain amusement park.

Death is another reason we’ll never get on this thing even if you pay us. Francesca Galazzo, a 27-year-old mom, passed away after falling out of another Sling Shot ride, this time in Italy’s San Benedetto del Tronto carnival. Still up for the ride?

A Kid’s Worst Nightmare

Imagine being a kid, and you see this sign for the first time in your life. What would go on in your head? Well, if it were us, we’d surely lose our marbles by the thought of our parents swapping us for another kid. Of course, Disney can’t actually do this.

Child Swap, also called the Rider Switch, simply lets members of a group take turns riding those kinds of attractions while the remaining group members watch the group’s non-riding youngsters. The first group waits in line, while the rest can ride after with some waiting time.
