Japan creating a new world record breaker?
« on: Apr 26, 2006, 11:43 »
I heard a rumor from a maintenance man, who seemed quite into the coasters and visiting amusement parks, was telling me about how the Japanese was building a new coaster that would be over 500 feet tall.  Has anybody else heard of such a thing yet?

Well it would only make sense to go Meso-coaster as that is the next layer of the atmosphere.

Did you know that off hand, or did you have to look it up? :angel4:

Knew it (I wasn't on the academic bowl team for nothing)  I was also thinking Exo-coaster as that is the outermost layer of the atmosphere and I honestly do not see coasters going any higher than 500'.  Even I might think twice about getting on a 500' coaster.

I wouldn't ride it. Still hesitant on riding Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster.
