    This was the tallest roller coaster in the world when the video was taken. I would piss my pants.

    I rode this ride(Kingda Ka) when I worked at Great Adventure in New Jersey. Effin insane. Highly recommended :cool: :grin: ;) :p I worked parks for 4 years (thats really not that long) and counting the fact we had to be the guinea pigs in the morning and evening inspection I've never been stuck.
    Id'e freak the hell out.

    Impossible


    I worked Dungeon Drop too. :eek:
    That ride was a piece of crap yet fun. The weather hot, cold, windy, rainy all effected that ride in some way.

    I rode that coaster a few years ago, the Top Thrill Dragster. Waited more than an hour in line to ride it, and as much as it shocks me to say it, the 14-or-so second ride was worth it.

    It was a worker and you can see he went up in an elevator at 1:36 and that the elevator came down at 3:19.

    Man, I would have sued for reparations. Or at least an extra large cotton candy.
