Dreamworld's head of engineering will retake the stand at an inquest into the deaths of four tourists after admitting a series of equipment failures in the lead up to the tragic accident should have been investigated.

Chris Dreaves, who joined the theme park in 2012, will return on Wednesday after admitting there were multiple breakdowns which caused the water levels to drop on the ride before the tragedy in 2016.

He confirmed on Tuesday that malfunctions - on October 19, 22, 23 and twice on the morning of the October 25, the day of the accident which claimed the lives of Cindy Low, Kate Goodchild her brother Luke Dorsett and his partner Roozi Araghi - should have been investigated.

The four guests died when a water pump on the Thunder River Rapids ride malfunctioned, resulting in two rafts colliding and flipping.

Earlier in the proceedings, a former senior official at Dreamworld parent company Ardent Leisure apologised to the family of the victims.

"I would like to offer the families of victims a genuine and heartfelt apology of the indescribable suffering you have experienced," former safety manager Angus Hutchings said.

"I am dreadfully sorry for your loss."

External safety auditor David Randall from DRA Safety Specialists is also expected to take the stand on Wednesday.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
