Yeah, rofl.

It's times like that I wish I didn't know anything about rollercoasters.. So I thought I was going to do, that would be scary.. But then afterwards, funny!

Although, it was funny anyway.. I was taking the mick out of my lil bro and mum because they thought it was going to crash! - The look on the faces of the riders in the front of the next car in the station, seeing a train coming towards you at 80mph not knowing it's going to stop.. LOL

During the past hour i watched a program where they where making kingda ka, it took a year make and they keep having snowstorms, they had to pull a wooden car around the whole track to see if the car would touch the sides and if people would get they arms mashed up :o
the head engineer stood on top of it with a whole camra crew and talked you through it, wouldn't wanna fall off.
