    Fan of Roller Coasters? Check out the famous "King Da Ka"

    Have you ever heard of King Da Ka, Medusa, or Superman? Well, yes I live about 10 minutes away from Six Flags Great Adventure. Me, my mom, and my sister went to get our passes for this park activated and I thought I'd take some pictures.

    Now, onto the real subject. King Da Ka is the tallest and fastest roller coaster IN THE WORLD! I think it's like 100 MPH and 400 something feet tall. Freaky, eh? I like roller coasters but I WILL NEVER IN MY LIFE go on this one. EVER! They have ALOT of problems with this ride though. It breaks all the time and they have to do at least 20 ride test a day. I guess that's what you get. Sorry, the pics are so big. If I resized them on photobucket they would have been impossible to see.

    If your to chicken(like me) to check out the ride in real life. Watch the video. It's like being on it.

    This is just the second hill.

    Oh dear....now, I thought it was amazing Kay got me on the coasters in Florida...but I would NEVER go on that..............Man. We were on one coaster and it stopped at the top before going down this slope (which was nothing to that mind you) and there were bees flying around up there o_O

    You can actually get up there without puking. Ok maybe thats kind of an excuse. But I would never be able to. Maybe if you give me a million bucks. We should have a big ol' Pettalk meeting here so all of you could go on it.

    I prefer my guts to be inside my body, thank you very much.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Whoa! That's one steep hill. I love coasters but I dunno if I'd be brave enough for that.

    I get soooooooo bummed every time I think about roller coasters. I think they are SOOO fun, until i get so sick I almost black out and throw up. I rode Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America because I live about 30 minutes from it and it was like having a migrane and a sevire flu at the same time while flying through the air.

    That looks uh..... sickening lol . There is no way in the world that anyone would get me onto that.

    We are going to Movie World and Dream World on the Goldcoast (Queensland, Australia) in about 3 weeks time and i am having ride issues with that, we are definitely going on the following rides though.
