I'd go on it... but I think I'd be unimpressed. They have something similar (though I'm guessing not as quick or high) at Thorpe Park and I thought it a waste of queueing time. Also the seats didn't work for 6'6" people - so much so I almost asked to get out before the ride!
I prefer my roller coasters to last a bit longer!
NO
I do have a height problem thats why have got the kawasaki lower gel seat on my gtr1400 ;D seriously thou! if I was with a few mates would have ago, suppose that would be better than the stick I would get if I chickened out ;)
Done it ... same as " Stealth " at Thorpe Park ... massive acceleration and then up up up and straight down on the vertical ..... easy ! ;D ;D
Your'e all mad!! :o
Only 120 mph? A bit slow, isn't it?
And waiting in line for over an hour for a 20 second ride?
I'd rather go sky diving!
More to the point... would you be brave enough to bungee?!

She IS a lucky girl ... always bungee over water and that's the reason why !! I havn't done it and don't know if I could given the opportunity ... I suppose you never know till your'e up there !!
Anyone else Bungeed ??
Bungee? F**K that!
I'll jump out of a plane but will never bungee.
As for the ride,... a bit slow and not that exciting.
Can have more fun on my GTR on a sliproad. 8) ;D
I guess the ride would be exciting to Mr & Mrs Ford Focus TDI.

Mr boomer! what are you surmising ;) have got a ford focus and I do get excited when driving, when the wife is wearing suzies ;D
That lass had obviously had one too many Fray Bentos pies the night before, even the crocs were looking forward to a bit of steak & kidney! :o
Very, very lucky indeed.

No way could I bungee jump I would die of :o before I even jumped! don't do heights at all. funny really providing I can't see the ground I'm ok. even painting the outside of the house, I'm ok if I can get one hand inside a open window because I feel secure. but there's certain places like corners where I have no excess to windows and can't get a tight grip when on the ladder. I just get the old knee slapper, "don't mean the wife" I mean when your 2 knees start knocking together very rapidly ;D then I just taped the brush to a long pole to finish the job off.
Rollercoasters, bungees and the like, its just not natural. :-[

your welcome to look at the "GTR" and the "ZZR" but "MRS" is for my eyes only ;) may bring the sussies with me on the cotswolds meet, if the wife will let me borrow them again :-* but don't think they will have the same effect on a hairy leg ;D but you never know! ;) ;D :o

Er no thanks :'(
Blimey ! Now that would be a challenge !!!! Hand on heart ??? ... I think not ;D ;D
Looks boring actually.
If it wouldn't be high up on top of a high rise building I guess nobody would be thrilled at all.
Last time I came through Vegas I wanted to go on the roller-coaster they have on top of one of those hotels but since we experienced a thunderstorm at the time - it actually bucketed down - all the rides were closed because of lightning. :(
And I don't think I'm going back to the States again if I can help it.
