This is a first person POV trip down the Rail Runner, America’s first (and currently only) single-rail mountain coaster, located at Anakeesta adventure park in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The coaster is 1,600 feet in length, has an elevation change of 400 feet, and each car holds a single rider, with a
This is a first person POV ride aboard the front row (back row?) of a reverse roller coaster at Gröna Lund in Sweden. The coaster goes backwards along a series of vertically dropping switchbacks, all but guaranteeing everything I ate waiting in the queue line is going to come right
