Gav's is a beauty, and yours Daniel - I can see it - not fun especially the electronic shocks

Mine was, went to Sydney a few years back to pickup a Whitewater and this guys house was cool but the most insane non pinball friendly set of steps, which were narrow and spiraled around 180 degrees from bottom to top. I was leading walking backwards and tripped on a narrow step on the turn and fell on my arse on to a higher step with the pinball sitting on my legs. It took another 5 minutes to get the pinball off my legs and reach the top of the steps - lucky the other guy had the strength to hold the pin while I struggled to get up. In the end I had torn the cartilage in my knee and needed surgery.

So after that I make sure there is no insane staircases and if so they will bring the pinball to the level ground as part of the deal.
