12. I've only been on the Zipper once.
It made me feel like my stomach was going to come up into my throat. I was very glad to get off that ride.

7. I got sick watching the
crappy quality video of that horror show of a "ride" ----

Doesn't Blackwater use this instead of waterboarding if they have a large group to torture?

11. I think that should be the fate of the Bush/Cheney administration.
But just leave it on permanently.

13. That is definitely one wicked ride.
I have skydived and that is scary enough, but there is no way in hell I would ride that thing.

14. There were people counting. Were they were going for some type of record or something?
I've seen this ride at the local county fair. But it never goes on anywhere near that long.

It usually lasts about 10-15 seconds once it starts going full tilt.

16. I was wondering about that too....
It is difficult to watch the video all the way through because it is soooo long.

I am still sick from watching it yesterday... :rofl:
