Mumbo Jumbo, World's Steepest Roller Coaster, About to Open

from another article about a lift hill stalling incident caused by a thunderstorm, we find:

...The drama unfolded on the final day of test-runs for the park's new £4 million Mumbo Jumbo ride, which opens to the public today and is set to enter the record books as the world's steepest rollercoaster. It features the most extreme drop in roller-coaster history – plunging passengers down an incline of 112 degrees from a high point of 30 metres and putting them through the same sort of pressure felt by fast-jet pilots.

Officials from the Guinness Book of Records were due to visit the park today for an official record-breaking run at 2.30pm. "This is a fantastic achievement for Flamingo Land," said chief executive Gordon Gibb, 33, whose family have owned and run the park for 32 years. We are extremely proud of our new ride. It's a world beater and it definitely puts us in the theme park premier league. There's nothing like it anywhere in the UK or Europe. In fact, you'd have to travel to Indiana Beach in the USA to come anywhere close – and even then, our coaster is steeper by one degree....

Excellent video, with great POV, is also found in that article:

ONLY in Britain would something like this be found in the middle of an article reporting a different incident in the park! I love the reference to the crash test dummies having to relieve themselves after the ride, found in the video!
