Coaster roll backs.

If you get stuck half way up on a coaster, do you get the feeling the coaster my start to go backwards once an a while I do. Anyone Else.
I used to, but after I found out about anti-rollbacks I never do anymore.

When I was a kid, whenever the Beast would stop on the second lift hill, I would always yell, "Now here's the part where we go backwards!" and it always got a big laugh. Actually a rollback from there on the Beast would be fun; you'd go a long way.
No more than when I put my car in park and take my foot off the brake -- it moves a few inches, then stops. No big deal.

Now, if the coaster stops like in the middle of an inversion (or comes close to stopping actually) there's more of an UH-OH! feeling there. :)
