I don't know about hair, but one year ('96 or '97) a lady lost her teeth on Raptor. Yes, they stopped the ride, and yes, they found them! Yikes.

I once lost my Mighty Duck hat on the Old Haunted Mill at Kennywood back a couple of years ago. I found it later at the station. I thought I lost my CD player on Viper at SFMM a couple of weeks ago but it was really in my sweater pouch. I felt like a dumbass.

Yes, indeed! Some little grandma-type, everyone's picture perfect "granny" (no offense!). Somehow, I can't picture my great-grandmother on any roller coasters! :)

Hah, I lost my wallet on the Hurler at Carowinds. Hey I was lucky enough to ride Hurler with ONE CLICK of the lap bar. MY GREATEST EVER ride on Hurler! Lost my wallet with $500 worth of season passes, cash, and more! Fortunately, it was found and mailed to me :)

This is kinda opposite, but I FOUND $10 on the Corkscrew at Cedar Point...I didn't really pay attention to the ride, for i noticed the bill during the ride, and I was trying to keep my foot on the bill so it woudn't fall out.  It bought me dinner...so I was quite happy.

I lost a hat on the Cyclone at Lakeside when I was about eight.  I wasn't mad though.  Now I know not to wear hats o coasters.

Besides the normally hats and sunglasses I have never really lost anything important on a ride.
During the MF media day a female reporter dropped her digital camera on the first drop and I remember Marcus brought it back for her.
Then one day back in 1997 my cousin and I were riding Mantis and he had his season pass around his neck and it fell out in the dive loop and it landed on one of the footers.  They stopped the ride and got it for him.
.....and I don't know why anyone would bring their camera rig on Mean Streak.

Dan, I actually tried to get an "on-ride" photo of Maggie from Mean Streak's second hill this year.  The train was banging side to side so badly I got a picture of the inside of MS's train - Jill says I'm just a natural photographer, LOL!

On Supreme Scream my friend lost 100 dollars. The bills, all 20s, just flew out of his pockets when we were going down. Believe it or not, 2 VERY honesty people who were waiting in line were able to show us where the money fell in the bushes, and they even helped us retrieve it.

Perhaps Dan was making a funny. I think he was the one who took a picture of Millennium Force from Mean Streak, in July of 1999!

Well, not me personally, but when I went on Yankee Clipper (now Ice Mountain Falls) with several friends and I consistently warned one friend, "You know, you really might want to think about taking off your hat."  Sure enough, we get to the end of our first ride, and lo and behold, someone's missing their 25 dollar abercrombie hat!

I have never lost a thing on a ride, although last year, I watched a couple on a skycoaster, and the man lost his toupee....... hilarious!

I have never lost anything on a roller coaster except for some change in my pocket on Apollo's Chariot.  It was cool because you could see it suspended in mid air on the on ride photo.  I heard once though that they emptied the lake at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and found dentures among other things.  The person must have been on the Pepsi Max Big One.:)
