A documentary about why rollercoasters exist

[Shark]

Just found this on an Australian news website, I really enjoyed it and thought people on here might like it. Based on an Australian that loves rollercoasters.

Thank you for posting this, this is a fantastic little documentary. As I quickly approach 40 I can relate to this dude and his relationship w/ this hobby when it comes to his age, not to mention this goes way beyond the "look at how crazy this thing is" typical focus of coaster docs and really offers some interesting insight into the psyche of us thrill seekers. The incredible Cedar Point coasterporn is the cherry on top.

Awesome documentary. Thanks so much for posting this.

That was fantastic, thank you so much for sharing! Never thought a documentary about rollercoasters could be this emotional. Oh, and some of those coaster shots are absolutely stunning!

What a great documentary! Very different from the usual, honestly often trashy ones we get. I really hope a lot of people will watch this (I'll be showing this to friends who 'don't get it' !) Thank you!

Thanks for posting! That was very interesting.

This is what I liked the most (and also what made it the most "unusual")

Thanks for sharing. Can I take this moment to ask a question that has always bugged me: why do you not allow YouTube videos to be maximized to full screen out of the forum posts? I'd guess it's my problem, but other boards I go to (in the same browser, on the same computer) do not have the full screen option simply gray out wen you click on it (rather than expanding the video to full screen).

 

Thanks again, solid watch.

One word:

 

 

Nice.

That's a fantastic documentary. Something I've thought to myself before is "How am I going to keep myself away from this hobby if I were to marry someone in the future that's not a coaster nerd like myself?" This documentary just convinced me that I won't have to.

 

Right in the feels.

I'm bumping this because Facebook reminded me of it today and I just watched it again and if you haven't you should as its fantastic. Seriously, all the feels.
