    Alton Towers have handled the situation better than Thomas Cook did. There PR team did it all right by apologising straight away, telling the injured to get legal help and providing support to those effected.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Alton Towers did act in a good manner, they apologized which many large companies don't seem to
    do, I feel theses roller coasters have a pretty good safety record ,! as theses accidents seem few
    and far between.
    Nothing is 100% safe that is designed, to thrill like theses rides to be honest I shit myself when I
    HAVE BEEN ON THEM.

    Even with the 7 million , im sure she would rather have had a safe ride and her leg back.
    But she at least can use the money and is set for life.

    working in a bodily injury department for a motor insurance company I have to admit that I'm extremely shocked that they have payed out that much money, I know that a lot of it comes down to the PR side of things but thats an extremely good pay out, it still doesn't justify the fact that she lost her leg though.

    I think that the payout for someone losing their leg from above the knee is around £100k

    It is PR and Alton Towers make £1 million a day so they can afford it. Moral of the story is, if you are going to lose a limb, do it there.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
