Hitech has got the black out right.

Went to Kings Dominion on Tuesday with hymijr's band class and got to ride some rollercoasters. There was one that was called the Intimidator, after a 305 ft drop, you go into a hard right turn at 90+ miles per hour, at this point is where i experienced a g-induced black out, it lasted about 10 seconds until i woke up and got my bearings. Hymijr also experienced some tunnel vision during the ride. Overall it was a pretty interesting senstation to black out and then realize what had happened. Here is hyperlink of a animation of the ride.

Any idea how many g's you were pulling in that first turn?  Looks intense!

[LLogann]

THAT LOOKS AWESOME!!!!

[hymi]

i believe it was around 5 g's on the first drop and turn, the ride also had a lot of positive g's in it also.

I think I'll stay away from that coaster.

You must be in Virginia.  I went to K.D in the 1980s, what fun that was.

you should look up the dragster at ceadar point. i think it drops from around 400 feet straight down.

This is much like the one about 20 minutes from me in an old run down town.  The KD version is ours on crack really but very similar.

Honestly for both of these, if you can...get in the front.  That climb , looking over the sides is pretty crazy...but wait till you peak at the top and look over the horizon.  Out of this world
