Humm you're a braver man than I. Never could go on those things :p
Love roller coasters. Go to Florida every year and go on them all. There are going to be some new ones this year and can't wait :D. The saw ride looks like Sheikra at Busch Gardens but doesn't look as big.

thats it rub it in. that is one ride ive been dying to go on since it opened but sadly not been back due to friends letting me down. the original oblivion at alton towers was what this ride was based on but of course the americans had to go one better and put loops in it.
i was a busch for the official opening of montu and rode it 18 times. the crocodile pit at the start of the ride now has metal bars over it as one of the crocks grew up and managed to jump up as the coaster went over it and it bit some poor sods foot.
i just hope i can get back to florida this year.

You might get some of the other guys on that but there are only 2 ways you'll see me on it:
1 - if I'm unconcious before, during and after the ride
2 - if I could drive it. I'll happily push a car to it's limits on track or dirt, then sit back and let a pro show me how it's really done. Same with flying, at least someone is in charge of the plane and I was originally going to join the RAF. If no one is flying, driving, steering etc my brain is usually pretty quick to say no, so that rules out SAW, jumping off a bridge with an elastic band tied to my ankles etc:):eek:

this can be arranged :p
next saturday we are getting the full vip treatment again.
in the park 1 hour before the public and then stay in the park after it closes and ride saw in total darkness.
you sure you dont want to change your mind Neil :D
Just saw (excuse the pun) this thread. Looks epic...
Ditto!! Neil..... There is no way on this earth you'd get me near the thing :eek:
I'll sit and watch you jim from a nice nearby (but not too near) Bar/cafe :p
*Jim!!!!!.........Your Nuts..............:rolleyes:
