Was it a test ride or are the Japanese silent on roller coasters?

Steepest? Really?

Maybe I don't understand what steep means, but it seems to me that there is a maximum steepness that anything can achieve and it has been achieved for many years on lots of roller coasters.

I read in another news article that this coaster has an incline of 121 degrees for it's drop. A coaster with an outside loop (common on inverted coasters) would have a 180 degree incline so there must be something else to this "record".

Was reading the record on this, and they define "Drop" as the main acceleration point, or drop from the highest point of the coaster where max speed is usually reached. It is the angle of that decent that is being measured. Kind of arbitrary, but so are most records

My balls!!! They've retracted!

@2min

I wouldn't trust this rollercoaster with my life.. Nope, absolutely not, nooo way.

Is this the first ever *asia sift that's not also * wtf? Could be its own record...

I'm surprised that this guy recorded the video without making any noise himself.

I'm wondering why his camera lens isn't covered in vomit and tears!
