Alpine Coaster with no brakes!

[Playinghardball]

Jaw dropping, high-speed, brakeless journey down the mountain.
Austrian downhill coaster is nevertheless terrifying.” The coaster located Mieders, Austria, starts at the top of a mountain, reachable by a cable car.
It’s pretty simple: single pipe, single person, single giant sloping, winding hill. But throw hundreds of pine trees whizzing past you on tight bank curves and it gets a bit scarier. Oh, and try not to clutch the brake — that’s right no brake.

4. Or to get killed

I have no problem with roller coasters, but I prefer the brakes to work.

3. I never used the brake on the one in NH

A lot of people didn't and flew off the track all the time, but no one ever seemed to get hurt. I just pretended I couldn't hear the spotters along the trail warning me to slow down. The crazy things one does when still a kid.
