It's his turn to feast, when you ride the Son of Beast.
My list includes:
Wildcat at Hershey park-I don't remember it being as brutal as it is now..they even raised the height restrictions in the last 2 years
Viper-SFGAD- this is torture! A definate whiplash machine
King Cobra at PKI- Thank God its gone!!
Son of Beast- belts you around pretty good..maybe if it wasn't so FAST...LOL..speed isn't everything ya know!
Scream Machine-SFGAD..especially in the last car
Thunderhawk and Hercules at Dorney Park- They need to get a new wooden..these 2 are real headache makers

I just remember that when the Flight of Fear train came to a stop back at the station, there was no "yeah!" or "cool!" or any such reaction. The only reaction was audiable expressions of pain and "Ow!" and "god I'm glad that's over". It wasn't just my friend's neck that was hurt. My neck was as well, and I saw SEVERAL people getting off rubbing their necks.
I have no idea how they haven't gotten their pants sued off them for that ride. After that one ride, I would have petitioned to have the ride demolished if I could have. I honestly will NEVER step foot on it again, ever. Yes, the ride was THAT bad and THAT painful.
So PKI fixes the problem that caused the headaches and caused the neck pain (yes OTSRs can cause neck pain, when your head stops but your neck keeps going it's going to cause problems), and you still refuse to ride the best coaster in the park? You do realize that PKI REMOVED the OTSRs correct? The ride is now COMPLETELY painless, and incredibly enjoyable. Why you refuse to try this completely new and PAINLESS (did I say that already?) coaster is beyond me.

Predator at SFDL is by far the most painful coaster I have been on! I tried it again after a few year break a few weekends ago because my kid was older enough for it and wanted to try it. It was still painful and even she said "This ride stinks!"

How is it possible to not like Mean Streak?! 3 words.
Rough. Woodens. Rock.
And Mantis is not harsh is you push the restraint down one click lower than you're s'posed to. My fav. part of Mantis is the G's, when all the blood rushes to your legs!

Why do they report power outages on TV?

Mean Streak use to be, but the trims have destroyed the ride.-----------------
I look at the trims on Mean Streak as life support. Without them the ride would commit suicide. With them, it's merely comatose.Painfully Fun: Astroland Cyclone
Painfully Painful: Flashback (SFMM)
