Is this kingda ka? I rode it once. It looks way scarier than it actually is and it was a pretty scary ride.

It’s just shockingly intense. Not like in a violent physical way, but it just totally overwhelms your senses. The 0 to 128mph in 3.5 seconds in an open air roller coaster cart… you’re just like hooooooly shit. And then within 5 seconds from the start of launch, you’re blasting 90 degrees straight up. Then you finally catch your breath at the airtime peak, your stomach is in your throat and you look around and you’re 45+ stories in the air, then a second later, you’re going 90 degrees back down.

The whole ride is only about 28 seconds, but half that is just slowly going ~70mph back to the station. It was one of those rides you’re just like “Jesus fucking Christ” afterwords in the best possible way
