Cool coaster fact:

Did you know that the very first "roller coaster" was actually created by two Russian men. They created what was known as the "Russian Ice Slide". They simply put a large piece of wood on a solid block of ice and proceeded to ride down a slope. This was the very first "roller coaster". Fast forward to the mid-late 1800s, and this idea was already spreading in Europe, only this time, it was made of a wooden structure with a simple single drop. Riders would get in a car with a simple lap restraint and ride down the slope to the bottom. The car would have to be returned back manually.

I like roller coasters. I live about 3 hours from Cedar Point and used to go there every year as a kid. Last time I was there was like 2012.

Rainbow Rocks... at least how it could've looked... in a stranger, more interesting dimension :lol:

I've been meaning to deepen my rollercoaster pool. I always liked the simpler ones, but the upside-down ones used to freak me out. But after something VERY terrifying happened to me recently (that I don't like to talk about...:blush:), I like to think that I can handle rollercoasters better...not that I've had a chance to go on one yet :muffins: Here's hoping I get the opportunity to try some bigger rollercoasters someday.


It takes all sorts to make a world
Short and tall sorts, large and small sorts
To fill this pretty planet with love and laughter
To make it great to live in tomorrow and the day after!

D'oh. I should've mentioned I'm an avid fan of theme park sim games like Rollercoaster Tycoon, Planet Coaster and the like. I suck at them (especially Planet Coaster :muffins:), but I find them a lot of fun

Oh yes. I've been wanting to go to Six Flags for sometime now. It's been a few years since. That Iron Rattler :wacko: .... or the Goliath.

I went from not really liking them to basically going on any of them within the span of the last 2 years. Really wish I could've gotten to ride Kingda Ki before it got shut down out of nowhere last year. I have been on Top Thrill 2 but it's not quite the same thing since it doesn't have the hydraulic launch anymore.

I like to ride them, but I'm not one that lives and dies for the Roller Coaster.

Same.
