Legal info needed.

Anyone know if you can claim compensation for whiplash after going on a roller coaster? I can hardly move.

Unless there was a fault with the roller coaster, you have little chance according to my DP. He is a legal boffin.

I agree - unless something wrong with it which you could prove unlikely that you would succeed. However it is always worth a letter to the owners as they may be willing to offer you something - even if just more tickets - if you want them of course!

I went on the Big One, Van Halla, Avalanche and the Mad Mouse at Blackpool. Although I think it was the Mad Mouse that did the damage. It's brutal and the corners are 90 degrees. How can that not cause whiplash at high speeds?

I think they would claim that you were aware of the dangers before you got on - or, if you weren't, you should have been. Rollercoasters are known for whipping you round corners so you should have expected some sort of muscle ache. So they would say.

They all tend to have warnings on them about back.nec problems don't they?
