so, since there are two different programs for the brakes because of the different types of trains, how hard is it on the brakes to have their programs being changed around so much right now? i mean to be running one program during the week and then switching over really quick for weekend operations had to be hard on them, doesn't it?

sounds like you had a great day ride wise, even if you did have a few rough patches (teen on voyage), you managed to make the best of it. i've seen so many people have something like that incident happen and let it ruin the rest of their time at that park. a great big pat on the back for you.

^you only keep referring to obesity, there are other things that cause people to take the "walk of shame" one of them is height. eating certain foods are not going to make a person's bones shrink, this isn't wonderland.

^you can look at all of my post, and as far as i can remember i am the last person you will ever see use something that is derogatory to one single set of people, i usually find myself pointing out people when they use stereotypes, all i did was post the true definition of the word "ghetto" which just refers to a "run-down" area. nowhere in this thread did anyone directly link the word "ghetto" to any one ethnic group and in all honesty it seems like you are the only one with the problem with "ghetto" being used.[/mini-rant]

i can't believe i forgot about this happening today in physics. my teacher was starting our unit on electricity when she told us the story of how a man's dog jumped into the oktoberfest pond and three people jumped in after him to catch him because everyone that was jumping in was "drowning," come to find out it was them all actually being electrocuted.

found this funny, from facebook:

^i think it's just the timberliners, if you watch the video of the four car timberliner testing on raven, that terrible noise is there too, just much less noticeable because of the trains distance from the cameraman/woman.

did Cedar Point remove the pov's from their web-site? they're not on the individual roller coaster's pages and they're not listed under the "video gallery" section of the site, am i just over looking them?

from dictionary.com: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ghetto nowhere does that refer directly to a single race.

i believe we have a psychic on our hands.

^which means you did say something? coaster_junky, in true interpreter fashion.

wow, you should imagine all of the comments made about us kentuckians before complaining about what's said about ohioans .

so ace of cakes made a cake for intimidator 305's media day. here's the youtube video of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSmplyg9nN4&playnext_from=TL&videos=G3NZKYRQBf0&feature=rec-rev-rn-1r-15-HM pretty awesome if you ask me.

^i didn't know the chipmunks were singing the names of the amusement parks now.

that marmaduke photo op is epic.

^ now aren't you glad that a certain fifth grader isn't a mod to this site. edit: sorry, i got my tombraider's mixed up lol, if that doesn't make sense to you sorry, if it does, then carry on.

The shot of Dragster is from 2003, the wheels are still on the train. ... and the shot of hotel breakers is from before that, top thrill dragster isn't even in that shot.

i just placed a number that popped into my head when i thought of the height of the Eiffel Tower, i'll go back and change it.

how are you gone from it for an hour or so? i thought they took loose articles as you boarded the train, but i've never had loose articles taken while i was on Flight of Fear, i usually just run my leg through the strings of my draw string bag. edit: i don't think it would be to big of a problem, as long as you're not on a ride like Diamondback, Invertigo, Delirium, or Drop Tower.

^it's been asked every day since that answer was posted, but there are other really good questions being asked as well. at least we have a start though, somewhere between 315'*- 500' is the height limit, just don't know where at in there. *guess what, i was wrong, lol, the tallest thing at the park right now is 315' in the air, not 314'.

a couple of days ago on ki's 5@5 they stated that Kings Island has a height limit because of a nearby airport, does anyone on here that can tell and will post, know what that height limit is?

i'd have to say the first time i rode Son of Beast in the dark, it was pitch black the whole entire ride, well except for when there was a police/security vehicle setting on the service road in the rosebowl with it's blue lights on. plus it was kind of awesome not knowing exactly when you were entering the loop because of the lack of light. -but the one time i got goosebumps on a night ride was when i rode Adventure Express back in '06 and Son of Beast had flood lights shining up against the loop. that thing was awesome looking with the shadows.

the only two Cedar Fair parks i've been to are Cedar Point and Kings Island. but my favorite park besides them is a tie between the four disney world parks.

^yes, but i would like to sound a little more professional than, "hey, could you please think about writing and images of america book on Kings Island in mason, ohio?"

which italian job and which outer limits: Flight of Fear did you get your lucky rollbacks?
