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

Obtuse angle. If you're going up, then suddenly going down, it can be more than 90 degrees. The starkest example would be a change from going up vertically to going down vertically, which would be a drop of 180 degrees. And would probably kill you.
