Wow Kingda Ka looks scary just by looking at the picture, has anyone actually ridden this ride?
i have ridden it it was terrific and terrifying but i want to go on it again and again
Ive been on a few rides through my life , the best ride ive been on in my life is the one and only Logers Leep in thorpe park, surrey.
trust me you fools go on it
YES MATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Boomerang at Pleasure island is Fantastic and so is Jubilee odyssey at fantasy island you can see it a mile away they the Best iv’e been on
it looks exactly like the top thrill dragster , minus the better color of the dragster . they definitely stole the design .
Bin on pepci max, infusion, Kindga ka, boomarand, big dipper , grand national , rita- Queen of speed , Air , Nemises, duel etc etc.. But nothing is as good as OBLIVION at Alton towers ENGLAND get your buts there or be scared all your life.
Just one thing if you go on oblivion Dont look down!!!
pepsi max iz da best ive been researching and every1 says blakpool is da most best theme park in uk
Top Thrill Dragster looks more terrifying in my opinion.. Because you don’t have the over-shoulder restraint… I think it’s just a lap bar and a seat belt.
Oh, and the best rollercoater I’ve experienced is probaly Inredible Hulk or The KraKen.
al;ton towers is the best theme park in the uk nemesis oblivion and air are the best =]
BLACKPOOL is the best theme park in the uk, pepsi max, infusion, irn bru and also bling, are the best rides there!!
BEST THEME PARK EVER!!(:
