However, bosses at the theme park say they pulled all of their planned advertising campaigns in the immediate aftermath of the Tsunami accident.

"We ordered its removal as soon as we were alerted to it and ClearChannel has assured us that its mistake will not be repeated.

The M&D’s website says: "The Giant Condor has landed at M&D’s! It’s gigantic, it’s awesome, it’s the only one of its kind in Europe.
"You can soar into the sky to over 30 metres in 28 custom built gondolas built for two!
"It’s big, it’s very scary, it’s the Giant Condor."
