No. Son of Beast's loop was 118 feet tall. Vortex is 148.

Ive heard that they are putting SOB's loop on Vortex.

Isnt Son of Beast's loop taller than The Vortex?

No way, SOB's loop is -6ft.

I just had to...

Now, that was good. True, too. Always a plus.

Topic: New Ride For Next Year..

"Thier getting rid of the bumper cars and knocking down skiline to build a log flume"

My friend who doesnt ride rides, actualy argued with me that Drop Tower killed 5 people, i nodded and walked away.

A guy named Shawn in my Gym Class says THE Crypt is a roller coaster. I try to explain it's a HUSS Giant Top Spin and he doesn't know what that is and probably never will.

I herded that the Diamond coaster broke down and everyone died.

^ your stupid if you believe that.

But the web cam is black. That means something bad happened.

^ No that probably means they stoped the webcam or the webcam is down..

Diamondback is still running, unless it blew up over night

Blewed? Word? No.

Is Diamondback still running? Yes.

Are you an idiot? Yes.

^^wow, that has to be the funniest rumor i have ever heard.

But it has 35 deaths so far, I think they blewed it up on purpose.

Lil' Sammy is back, again!

And he/she is gone, again!

Some guy was in line at Drop Tower behind me and was freaking out becuz he said someone got their feet cut off on this ride....FAIL

Where: Line for FOF

Topic: FOF launch

Ok, ive never heard this one before.

Person 1: " I am NOT riding this ride!"

Person 2: "Why not!!?!"

P1: "I heard someone flew out on the launch of this ride last year, hit a pole and died!"

P2: "WHAT!"

(both left line)

I couldn't breathe I was laughing so hard!

And he's Back, again, again!

I like that they included the person hit a pole, stating that it was the ejection from the coaster that was the proplem, but the pesky support pole the blocked the person from landing safely on the cement .

^ Or possibly hitting the one of the walls hahah this really made my day.

in line for The Beast:

guy 1: why is the line so long?

guy 2: because it's the last year to ride The Beast.

guy 1: why is that?

guy 2: because Cedar Point sold it to japan so they could pay for Diamondback.

between this and someone saying how much they hate wood-bee's (bumble-bee's) i couldn't stop laughing.

Well, i dont know about these rumors, but im not even kidding. we were out going to get lunch outside the park and my friends mom and i both swear we saw something fall of Son of Beast. not kidding

we saw something fall of Son of Beast.

Yea, popularity.

My science teacher said that the first time they tested The Beast that the trains came back without the head board and all of the dummies were chopped in half.

Actually, the first time The Beast trains came back they didn't have head boards.

They also didn't have dummies...

*clears throat*

They didn't have headrests, seat dividers, seatbelts, they had 4 rows per train (Which you can see in the way the station is set up) and a yellow slash down the side, they also had claw marks on the front at one point, when it opened the second tunnel was two individual tunnels and the last tunnel was not added until 1980, the first turn after the first drop was retracked to bank it more, and the origional brake fins were replaced with magnetic fins after a minor incident.

Jackson, who remembers things like that without even trying, and wishes he could memorize math formulas that easy.......

...and the last tunnel was not added until 1980

Eh, not quite... Part of the structure was present in 1979, but it wasn't fully enclosed until 1980.

Which is why Son of Beast has consistently had long lines since it re opening

Consistently? Not really, considering it was a walk-on last Friday (but then, so was everything else except FH).

What do you consider long? I'm often at the park and it's only a 30-45 minutes wait, many times less. Most of the other rides are then a 30 minute too. There are many factors that control the line length. It could be it has a lower capacity, so there appears to be more people, bad ride ops, etc.
