  1. i'm not trying to start an argument here, but i honesty don't see where this ride is that rough(i'm talking about Son of Beast) and i don't see how some people, for example me and dropzone99 can feel little to no pain what so ever, then some people like beast1979 and markr can come off feeling like they have been hit by a car, it just doesn't make sense, i know i can't be that tough that i don't feel any of the pain you all do.

  2. Let's see, things in the video that never were built:

    - The billboards and fake highway beneath the drop immediately following the 88 degree banked turn.

    i thought that turn was steeper than that

    The ride opened with some of the effects working. I can only remember a few times actually riding it during the 2005 season where "everything" was working. The following things worked off and on from 2005 - 2006

    - On board audio (as far as I can remember, gone after 2005).

    - Lights on the vehicles (as far as I can remember, gone after 2005).

    - Stair effect (gone after 2005)

    - Fog before the tunnel (worked a little bit during the 2007 and 2008 season, now gone)

    - Watter effects in the "warehouse"

    i rode this ride multiple times throughout the first season and the only one i ever saw/felt/heard work was the water effect.

  3. these are some of my favorites that i've taken so far this season, but it isn't even close to all of them

  4. so if Cedar Fair does remove nick u. next year, will the web-cam be turned so we can watch the re-construction of it?

    and i just had a great idea for avatar: the last airbender, paint the track and car/buggie/or whatever you call it, and then replace the giant avatar with the red baron

  5. I work at Keyhole photo and the things people do everyday just amazes me.

    Have any of you ever thought that our parents made us get summer jobs and this is all that is open for hiring?

    I have to pay for a car, insurance, and school.

    At least we are out there working and not sitting on our asses playing video games and eating ****.

    We dont like attacking you or being out there for 5 hours straight watching our friends snub us to go ride rides. Our job really does suck and on top of that people are SOOOOOO rude. (preteens are the worst!)

    By the end of the day I am so sunburnt, my legs hurt, and i have been told off by at least 20 ppl to only have made about 50 bucks.

    so next time you say something ****ty or waste our time put yourself in our position.

    who likes being *****ed out everyday?

    oh and btw we have a certain shooting percentage we have to make every hour or we are in trouble and we get paid hourly with bonuses for pictures sold.

    oh and we are told to be full of energy and second ask ppl and do everything you ppl pointed out or we will get into trouble.

    i'm sorry to hear you hate your job, and i must ask do you get in trouble for people not buying the picture or you not having enough pictures taken?

  6. ^i don't know because i too wasn't tall enought to ride it while it was there, but i remember very clearly setting in my stroller and watching train after train go threw the loop.
