Ferrari World Discussion Thread
Midgetman82 replied to Captain Jack's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think there is going to be huge lines at Ferrari World, but I would say that the simulator would probably have a pretty low rate of capacity; it mostly depends on how many simulators they have. -
I was playing with Photoshop way back in '05 and this was one of the pictures I made. In 2006 I had to use a picture for my youtube account, thus this picture was used. When I joined this website, I used the same picture, but put the words "Midgetman82" on it. Why I used a stick figure skydiving for a username "Midgetman82", I have no idea!

Ahh, now I get it! This probably keeps them from having to make pop-up anti-roll-back brakes which probably cost more than just putting trims on the first hill, right? -

We all get amped up about the coaster, we see footage of it, then we make judges from what we see. What one person says can effect what everyone else thinks about the ride. I'm now going to shut up about what I guess what the ride will be like until the ride actually opens and people bring back reviews of the ride, or until I have ridden it. Until then I'll go with one unofficial rule that I saw on another thread here: -
Technically it is a coaster: My Journey to Atlantis (Sea World Orlando) trip stopped because a boat apparently got stuck on one part of the ride. Luckily for me, I was stopped right before the big drop and my boat was told to evacuate! You can already imagine how many flights of stairs it took to get to the bottom ! Soon got tickets to skip the line once it reopened. Would you go base jumping for free?

Well, now I'm starting to change my view on that video. Looking back at my last post here would be more of what it would look like other than the invisible sonic boom this video made the coaster create. I should look at dubaidave's video and this video to compare. -

I absolutely agree with you, there is no doubt that was sped up. In fact after it crests the hill it seems to dramatically slow down. If it were going that fast, it would be pulling at least 2 negative g's at the crest of the hill. 20mph faster than would look that fast to me, especially if the camera is on a tripod and not shaking. -
Yes, blind the audience with your shiny instrument while you perform so they can hear you better! Do you ever have to mow your grass?

Eric's 2009 Theme Park Adventures - RESURRECTED!
Midgetman82 replied to live2tell75's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Nice report, I don't think I've ever seen a Mind Blaster ride before. -
It's probably because they don't want guests losing their cameras on the tour and ask to go back to look for it, they also might know where they lost it but it's in a really bad spot (crocodile pits, hippo pit, fell off of bridge or cliff and probably destroyed). It might even be hazardous to the animals for they might find it and eat it. I dunno, maybe they might soon try this, then call it safe for people to bring their own cameras. Other than the camera policy, I like this idea. It seems nice to forget you're in Florida for a while.

The "Say Something Random" Thread
Midgetman82 replied to robbalvey's topic in Random, Random, Random
If you have not seen the movie Jackass, then you need to see it NOW! -
Wow, so what it looks to be is a ZacSpin, S&S tower, possibly a crazy eurofighter, A strata coaster, and a parking garage! Well, the Idea seems to be coming along. Edit: dragonskeep mentioned a top hat coaster and a ride 425ft tall. I think that's what the arch thing is on the third photo. Look carefully to the right and read how high it goes!!!!!

Yes, well probably, I've never been on it. Have you ever been on an airplane for longer then 10 hours?
