Alpine coaster - so would you do it?

jjirons69 · 11-22-2011, 11:19 AM

This thing starts hauling azz at the end. It's a single rail Apline coaster, much like the one in the picture. I'd do it! Has to be a hell of a wild 4 minute ride.

It would be a ball, but it's lacking some serious safety precautions. What if a deer is stradling the track half way down? Can't stop, no steel between you and it = pain or death. I'm guessing they launch more than one at a time, spaced by a minute or two. What if the one in front of you gets stuck, hits an animal or is otherwise broken down. You can't stop and hit them going 40 mph -ish?

It would be a lot of fun, but I dont' think I'd do it unless there were some emergency precautions taken.

elderboy02 · 11-22-2011, 11:56 AM

I'm game. First, let me swing by the local Wal-Mart to pick up a bottle of Grey Goose and some depends.

Emjaysmash · 11-22-2011, 01:12 PM

Well, that would eliminate, so to speak, the need to wear Depends,

No way, that looks like a death ride.

11-22-2011, 02:07 PM

Wow what a ride but I think I'd rather let someone else do the ride and I'll watch the video.
