Last I checked, 3 people in 187 MILLION people in the US have died from taking the vaccine. There IS no risk. People spouting this right wing/anti-science propaganda are helping perpetuate the virus. This is now a pandemic of the non-vaccinated. Almost everybody hospitalized/dying right now are the non-vaccinated. Their final death bed regret being that they trusted anti-science propaganda sources. Scientists have been studying these coronaviruses for decades. This was not an overnight vaccine. Selfishness and misinformation is killing Americans left and right and we still have selfish "my freedom" people shouting from the rooftops. There is a reason why America has been the Covid hotspot of the world despite being the most medically advanced country in the world. The virus has been politicized. Sad and scary at the same time.

Covid is not lethal? Have you been living in a cave? I suppose you are one of those "Covid is no worse than the flu" people. There are tons of people that have serious side effects a YEAR after contacting this disease. The long term health effects will not be known for some time. Downplaying this virus is not helpful.

Fox News tells bigger lies every hour than that USA decapitation story so my advice is to take everything with a "grain of salt".

Have to beat around the bush and choose words carefully. Political discussion not really allowed here unfortunately. Hard to stay non-political when discussing this countries Coronavirus response/policies.

I purposely did not include healthcare. Are you kidding me? The party in power is in court trying to strip healthcare from 30 million people with no backup plan. It would also kill protections for people with cancer and such where they can get locked out of even being able to PURCHASE insurance. All this happening during a 100 year pandemic. SMH

America is #1 in the world in medical research, medical innovation, and top healthcare professionals/facilities. It's not even close, but we are the absolute epicenter of the Coronavirus pandemic. Also not even close. You have to ask yourself why? Who is responsible? I think we know the answer.

I have now read dozens of comments around the internet on how Orion may have the best drop out of all the giga coasters. Everybody who has ever called Orion a "hyper" can officially insert foot in mouth now.

Please don't leave your house either.

Sorry. Anybody badmouthing KI to the public while they work there needs to be fired. Stupidity beyond belief.

A giga is a giga is a giga. Like arguing over which supermodel is hotter. They are all hot. lol

They maybe should have put some man made water under this thing for added scenery/atmosphere. Anybody agree? Scenery is what gives MF a little extra boost. Anyhoo, sounds like a great ride all around regardless.

You mean how good was the mask enforcement? C'mon people. It's a pandemic here and America is the epicenter by far. Thus thing is on the verge of being out of control again and theme parks will be forced to close again when that happens. Wear your masks and quit being selfish.

Of course I did. I was using your post as a prequel/companion to mine. Kudos for your original post.

Sorry. Anybody that refuses to wear a mask in public when it is impossible to socially distance 100% of the time is an incredibly selfish/heartless human being. As we are finding out, there are a lot of these people in America. I'm not remotely in the high risk category, but no way would I ever go out around large groups in public right now without wearing a mask and trying to keep my distance. It's not about you. Anybody could have this virus asymptomatic and be harming or killing other vulnerable Americans. Also, don't kid yourself. This virus KILLS many more people than just the feeble/elderly. It also does serious long term damage to many that do not succumb to it. I wish I could speak about how we got here as a country, but alas. I think anybody with sense can figure out who is a at fault.

This is far more than politics in this era. It's right vs wrong. Decency vs immorality.

Hopefully America will have a change in leadership to handle a second or third wave. The response has been nothing short of pathetic.

Yep. I do all my running/biking at night. Hardly see a soul these days except for occasional Cops.

Elections have consequences.

At least they are more truthful than the American Govt. SMDH

This can't be a serious post can it? America's response to this emergency has been pathetic. Our President called it a HOAX, purposely prevented health professionals from getting a jump on it because he is worried about reelection, and slashed CDC funding. Only 8 people in the ENTIRE country were tested yesterday despite tens of thousands being tested in countries like South Korea. EVERY major sport here are CANCELLING their seasons. I suggest you get informed. This is too serious not to.

How can you not be at least concerned about it? Even people that are younger can potentially pass it to vulnerable family members or general public that are a bigger risk. You may not even be aware you have it and be passing it around. NBA just suspended their season tonight and I look for NCAA to suspend their tournament tomorrow. Can theme parks be far behind? Only if Corona ends up slowing way down in hot weather do I not see this affecting parks as much. Theme parks will probably have to delay their opening days this year I would guess. America's response to this has been pathetic beyond words.

Unless her name is Stormy. Then she said, "was it ever in"? Oops! lol

Coaster looking great! So did KI decide to go with intensity, ride experience, and rider capacity over all out record breaking stats and track length? This could end up being a better ride than many of the stats coasters?

The 91 MPH happens at the bottom of the first drop correct? Yes, it's long enough to go 91 MPH. I'll take speed, intensity and airtime over ride length any day.

I have noticed time and time again that this coaster often appears a bit shorter/smaller in pictures because the supports and track pieces are so massive that you have no visual scale to go off of. When you see a picture with workers or something, then you realize the massive scale of this thing.
