ROLLER COASTERS, Holy crap.

I didn't even know this was happening, but Canada's Wonderland has apparently been building a new, BIG ASS ROLLER COASTER.

Leviathan is now the tallest and fastest roller coaster in Canada.
Leviathan is the third tallest traditional lift-style coaster in the world, behind a 96.6-metre monster in Japan and a 94.2-metre tummy turner in Sandusky, Ohio.
The Leviathon starts off with a 93.3m (306.10ft) drop at 80 degrees, going 148km/h (about 90mph)

I rode the Behemoth (formerly the biggest roller coaster Wonderland had) two years ago and that was amazing. Pants-poopingly terrifying, but awesome. The drop on this this thing is 20metres higher than that one.

I may have to shell out the money to go to Wonderland this summer and check this bad boy out. But I may just be too terrified to ride it once I see the thing...
 
I have to admit I don't appreciate as much as I should the fact that I'm only 3 hours from cedar point. I haven't been in years, either. Hopefully this summer...
 
Hmmm, I'm a reasonable drive away from Canadas wonderland and Cedar Point. Maybe this summer I'll compare and fill you in on all the results. You know, for science!

That sounds awesome.

I love going down to King's Dominion...recently fell in love with roller coasters. Frightened to death of them as a kid, liked them as a teen, now can't get enough of 'em.

Have you guys noticed that all roller coasters basically sound like sex acts?

Why not? You wait for hours, then you hang on for dear life while you get whipped back and forth, and then it's over in a couple of minutes and you have trouble walking.

I was terrified of roller coasters growing up, I don't think it was until I was 15 or 16 that I finally went on one that actually went upside down.
This was my first upside down roller coaster, and if I'm being honest, I have to say is still one of my favourites I've been on:

Short and sweet; drop, loop, loop back down, up, sudden stop, do it all again in reverse. :D

Wow... that does sound like sex.

Neat we have one of those at Hershey Park where I live:

Huh... I'm not too far from there either. The zoo is a nice day trip.
 
Yon estimation be super off.

I will definitely be going on that coaster next time I'm on that side of the country.
I typed it into the converter on my phone and that's what it came out with.
*EDIT> Hmm, must have made a typo. Right, more like 90mph. I thought it seemed low
 
It's closer to 90 miles, that's all.

100 miles = 160 km give or take.

NOT THE POINT THOUGH! That coaster looks awesome and I want to ride it.
