Thank you. I spent a few summers with my parents when they worked for carnivals (dad was a professional magician who wasn't above doing side shows), so got to ride everything for free when I wasn't a miniature clown passing out half-price coupons. A teacher sent me to the principal's office for "lying" on my Summer Activity report. She learned something.

Anyway, the greatest ride was "The Bullet" which was so brutal the operator kept a hose handy for spraying out the barf. Here's a video of one running at half his speed:

The "Vomit Comet"
