    bugger that !!!

    there’s another reent one called ‘top thrill dragster’, goes up like the one in the first image (google it and you can see a short vid), comes down verticle and includes a corkscrew on the way down, does 100mph apparently !

    this pic is apparently of a girl who just got off it !! it looks very similar to the original image, maybe it ?

    Hugh, checked out http://www.thrillride.com/ttd/ttd.html and it is the same ride I’m sure.

    I feel sorry for the girl, I am not into thrill rides myself, but admire anyone with the nerve to give it a try 😮

    Those type of rides are my worst nightmare, I break out into cold sweats just thinking about it 😮
    I went on a banana boat recently at Thorpe Park ( kiddies ride ) and had to shut my eyes cos I was so scared 😳

    I wonder what happens, about money and keys etc, when you go the the twist roller coaster in Chessington or Thorpe park, they have a safty net up; you should see all the things that have fallen out, money, keys, sweets all sorts.. not too bad if you only 4m above ground, but could you imagine the damage it could do 90 stories up????
    Must say i love these fast roller coasters.. hoping to get up too black pool to the Pepsi big one…

    i just dont agree with them, i dont find them so much scary as i do vomit inducing !! i feel sick on the twister after 3 mins !

    maybe the bigs ones, being over so quick, wouldnt have that effect on me ? but then i’d probably avoid the evening’s worth of guinness and a dodgy kebab before heading to the funfair !

    i do find the big wheel un-nerving tho 😳
