Smile False leg found underneath ride

After 28 years the corkscrew at Alton Towers is being dismantled. They've found lots of interesting things whilst clearing the site, one being a false leg.

Now if you were riding the corkscrew and your leg fell off you'd notice...right? They are appealing to anyone who might have lost it?!
