Also the designer thought up to 50% of New Yorkers would ride it... Because he is unaware that most adults have no interest in riding 100 foot drop coasters

I’ve seen the POV of this coaster and it’s something that is absolutely built for enthusiasts. I’d have to imagine most kids getting on it the first time are going on a dare. It shakes by about 2-3” while it holds for a few seconds at the top of the chain lift.
