Suicide by Roller Coaster


Want to enjoy the ride of your life along with the last ride of your life?  That's what Julijionas Urbonas envisions with his Euthanasia Coaster.  The three minute ride involves a long, slow, climb that lifts one up to a height of more than 1,600 feet, followed by a massive fall and seven strategically sized and placed loops.  The final descent and series of loops take all of one minute but the gravitational force, some 10 G's, from the spinning loops at 223 mph in that single minute is lethal.
