    After seeing a lot of these comments, I want to clarify a few things. I did not build this roller coaster, rather I live very close to where it was located and know the guy who built it personally.
    This ride was safe, and he made sure to test it and keep it running properly through the years. There were certain height and weight requirements to ride in order to make sure everyone was as safe as possible.
    Finally, this ride was recently retired and relocated to a place in Ohio called "Haunted Hoochie" where I do not believe it will ever run publicly, but is there as sort of a decoration to pay homage to this famous ride.

      @@Valhalla05 the thing is, theres also the jerk that plays a role on how comfortable the ride is. As acceleration is the change of the speed over time, jerk is the change of acceleration over time. So it would feel less comfortable if you went from 1-2 G's to 4,5 G's in a fraction of a second than going in a milder rate. Thats why enthusiasts hate Vekoma SLC's or togo's transistions
