Corkscrew rollercoaster (spinny thing when coming down?) and that huge loop PLUS the fast speed, the intensity and the steepness of that "slope"? And after that you wet your pants plus the heart thing?

No way. Nuh uh.

I'm afraid to look out of the window of a 5-storey building.

I would do it but I would be praying and holding, no, squeezing the hand of a friend the whole was. I have don one with a 320 foot vert drop though.

I don't think I would.
I love rollarcoasters... but that first too steep drop looks too risky to me.
I mean... that's just too much right there.. it looks like the cars could come right off of the tracks.
No way in heck I would get on that thing knowing that the people who do maintenance on it prolly don't give a crap.

I probably would... if I didn't have to pay to go on...not sure if you do, and as long as the bars are tight enough...I SWEAR on some of the roller coasters I've been on, I could slide under the bar...>_> scary...have to hold myself down -_-. Not sure how I'd handle it, but looks like fun xD and scary as hell! haha.

And i will always feel bad because that person is now immortalized on the internet. I'm pretty sure she never wanted that picture taken, nor did she want it shared. *sigh* Cest la vie. it gets the point of the roller coaster across.

Though personally, I will never meet that person in real life since we are apart by the oceans 0:)

Slightly off-topic, but this reminds me of a case here recently about a teenage girl who immoralized herself in video with her mobile phone, which got stolen by a jealous friend, and whose video got uploaded in the net. The video was spreading like wildfire, reaching as far as the US. She is now traumatized and is a subject of embarassment by her classmates. :(

Usually I'd be the first person to jump onto roller coasters, but seeing as I’m scared of dropping vertically rather then horizontally, it'd be a no.

The Star Wars Kid and the Numa Numa man faced the same fate. Mind you, their ventures were pretty neat, and i never heard of this other video you speak of. i'm all good with funny videos that make you famous, but cruel videos? that's just low...

First click of the link was spurred by my curiosity as to how high and complex this coaster was.

As soon as I saw the pictures... no.

Imagine what that would do to your spine and your center of gravity? Apart from being mentally shaken by the extreme fear you could encounter, you would be so screwed up physically afterward. I wouldn't be surprised if there have been a number of cases of slipped discs just from trying to sit through the drop, spin and speed of the coaster. That thing is probably a chiropractor's worst nightmare.
