pgathriller Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Some roller coasters have some very weird names. I just wanted to know if anyone knew what these coaster names meant. Kingda Ka Powder Keg Sheikra Sorry for asking such a stupid question.
CoasterCrazy88 Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Hello pgathriller! Sorry, I don't know about Kinda Ka or Powder Keg, But I do know about Sheikra. A "Sheikra" is a type of hawk known to dive straight down for its prey. Hope that helps! Antonio"That was not a stupid question"G.
BiCoastal Kid Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Powder Keg is obviously named after the old barrels that used to be used to transport and store explosive gun/black powder. It fits the theme as there is an explosion right as the train is launching. Kingda Ka is some weird language for "King of Coasters" I believe. Probably an African language due to it's theme.
Coasters 4 ever Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 I had exactly the same question. Now I don't have to ask it! Yay!
