2 carriages crash on the Smiler rollercoaster.  16 people involved, 4 seriously injured.

Samdy was there today, hope he is OK.

Empty carriage was stationary at a 'low point' and was hit by a fully loaded carriage at full speed. Jesus. Hope they're ok  No

BBC also suggesting they are still trying to extract them from the wreckage, which considering it happened around 2ish is horrible!

I'm fine.

I was on The Smiler this morning and it broke down whilst I was queuing. I guess they should've shut it then.

The crash sounds horrific. I hope those involved make full recoveries.

Apparently, two people had to have legs amputated at the scene. Very sad.
