Switzerland. Home of mountains, chocolate, Nazi gold, and now the most insane amusement park ride.

I grew up in the town that hosted the State Fair each year. When I was young it was also known as "Daycare". Parents would just drop us off in the morning, then pick us up at night. I hung around the games of chance most of the day. I would leave with a little stuffed dog, that ended up costing 50 bucks. But at least I didn't leave with puke on my clothes.

My friends would all hit the rides as fast as they could. They liked the Zipper the best. It's the one where you sit in a yellow cage that spins until you puke. Never saw this as fun. Mainly because my glasses would spin off my head leaving me blind and sickly. Not a good look.

Since we're about ready to begin a holiday weekend, I figured I'd show you some insane, crazy rides, to help you get in touch with your decision making process. First up is a new one in Switzerland, but I'm sure it will be making it's way over to the States soon.

 

  • TOURBILLON

    Which Way do They Go?

    This looks more like a machine you'd use to jump to a different dimension. But, I'm guessing that when it's done, you'd wish you were somewhere else.

  • Frisbee

    Six Flags Fiesta

    I saw that China had a version of this. They had the riders facing the outside of the ride. That's no fun. Face the inside so everyone can hit by puke.

  • Airwolf

    Hamburg Germany

    Ve have vays of making you sick. At first I thought this one looked O.K., then they cranked up the speed.

  • Texas Sky Screamer

    Six Flags Over Texas

    400 foot swing ride. Which means when you poop yourself, the feces falls 400 feet on someones head.
