My son is going to a theme park this week with school. He is really exited about going on the roller coasters.
He cant wait and he keeps looking up "on ride" videos on youtube and "statistics". Not just of the park he's going to but of coasters all over the world.
I've had to endure loads of them including the tallest, fastest, most extreme coasters in the world 
If that wasnt enough, he's also making enormous coaster on the game "Roller Coaster Tycoon".
I'm not a roller coaster type person so watching all these videos etc makes me giddy
I'm sure he'll love it though.

i bet he will have a wonderful time, they probably wont be able to get him off the rollercoaster by the sounds of it !!!!
jon still likes the little rides that you put 50p in, but being 9 he is now finding it pretty difficult to squeeze himself in them !!!

This is one of the videos he has shown me. It is Kingda Ka (in the USA?)
Its the highest and fastest roller coaster in the world!
Speed goes up to 128mph, and height is around 460ft

LOL, I have had to sit through many many more than that 
They are bad enough on video, goodness knows what they are like for real.
