I did it!

[VJ]

For the first time in my life, I went on a rollercoaster that went upside down!


It was in Walibi, the rollercoaster is called Vampire: http://www.rcdb.com/id922.htm

Here is a movie of the attraction (from a passenger point of view) which I found on the internet:

When will we see a video of you doing that trick with your plane?

[Rakido]

You obviously haven't seen Final Destination 3

nah seriously, that's a nice coaster. My last one was this one:





Doesn't look too impressive, but it's nearly 50m high and you have *no* over-the-shoulder restraints:

The Vampire is ony of my favorites in Walibi , but you should check out the Typhoon in bobbejaanland it's awesome.

I can't go on any rides anymore, I get really sick for hours, even if I go on ONE stinking ride.

You have to try Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point in Ohio. It's amazing. All of the following is done with just a lap bar, no shoulder restraints:

Inch forward to drag stip style lights
Wait for the lights to go green
Accelerate from 0-120mph (0-190km/h) in under 4 seconds (don't bother trying to breath during this part )
Go vertical, and climb 420 ft while doing a 90 degree twist
Go over the top, and then straight back down 420 ft with a 270 degree twist.
Coast back into the station.

Only 23 seconds from start to finish, and it's the best coaster I've ever been on.

@agallag: My roomate showed me a slideshow of that ride, and at the end it shows a pic of this really cute girl who peed her pants, hehe.

Seems like a thrill indeed! Too bad I'd probably get sick for a day and a half afterwards though.

TTD is indeed capable of making some lose control

I've got the oposit problem, the older I get the less I'm affected by these rides

There was a documentary about the the Top Thrill Dragster on the national geographic channel a few weeks ago.
