Would you ride a roller coaster 420 feet tall?

jab1, they’re handing out bathroom passes so you can piss and not lose your place in line. They came to their senses and realized that the last thing they need is a thrill ride filled with people who desperately need to pee.

My bladder capacity is an amusement park legend.

Now see, if you said that you wouldn’t wear a t-shirt, you might have gotten more responses.

And the point of bumping this is to ask Merla how it was. Come on…spill the details girl, did you ride it? Was it worth it, or over too fast to really feel how high up you were?

Good god you people are fwip wippin insane.

I almost threw up watching the computer animation video.

My own vision of hell would entail being a passenger on a tour bus with the lot of you, traveling to amusement parks across the country… my face pressed against the glass…screaming…

I’m going to put a cool towel on my forehead.

My GF is going to want to ride this. I’m afraid. :frowning:

If they can shoe-horn my fat ass in there I’ll ride it… twice

Oh yes, yes, YES!!! I smell a road trip to Ohio!

Now that’s the smartest thing I’ve read in many a moon.

Still, a five-hour wait seems excessive to me. You wouldn’t have much time to ride anything else. Although I suppose you could use your rest room pass to go ride something else that has a short line and then come back.

Two weeks and I get to try this thing. I’m totally psyched. I imagine it’ll be a four hour wait to get on thie freaking thing, but it’ll be worth it.

Feh. Sure, it’s tall, but the layout is so simple. It just goes out, up, and back. Are people really waiting five hours for that? It can’t last more than 20 seconds.

I used to be a coaster junkie, until I went to Magic Mountain in Valencia and rode the Goliath. By the time of the helixes on the end, I actually started getting tunnel vision, and left with a wicked headache. (Made worse by the fact that it was 2000 degrees that day. Kelvin.) More painful than fun.

I think I’ll stick with Disney and the themed coasters; others can keep building them taller and faster and getting more and more jaded, while Space Mountain is a simple layout that’s almost 30 years old and still gives me a thrill every time.

Oh HELL yeah!!! I’m so jealous of all the stateside dopers who have the opportunity to ride coasters. AK has NONE.

Hell yes, I’d be there in a heartbeat.

'Nuther ceritfied coaster nut here. I live in ThemePark Central, and one of there days, I am getting my own coaster t-shirt designed.
