Just out of curiosity. Is it possible to go down it? I've never seen it done that way.
I have no idea maybe Jake will try it for us.
just kidding buddy I would do that to you. I do know its called out as a one way deal but I am sure it could be done but I ant trying it, thats for sure.

BLUSHING! Stop that....ok, don't stop that. I'm still blushing, though.

Jeshua, OMFG dude that almost just gave me a heart attack. That video is soo sick, just like what I felt....ya fell twice too I have the biggest adrenaline rush right now you have no idea!!!!!!
Jakers! Why does this not surprise me? I felt exactly the same way. Unless you've walked, driven this there's no way to convey how frightening it is.

Now i know why Maureen has that look on her face after it happened to me FLASH BACKS!!!
YIKES!! still shaking just from watching it, no one could pay me to attempt going up that piece of crap again!!
Now for my next trick next year, I will be going down
You are SO right, Jake! Oh man. When Jeshua talked about posting it all I could think of was, "It's going to be like a car crash. You don't want to see it but you can't turn away."
When the change all fell down out of the center console I was just thinking, "I'm so glad I wasn't in there." It was bad enough being outside.
And, yes, when Ron yelled, "Maureen, get down here!" all I could think of was, "NOOOOOOO."
We're all here to tell the tale so that's what really matters.

You guys are making me laugh. Every time I come back to the computer there are more funny posts about those times.
You know, I've been on that trail exactly TWICE and this happened with both of them. I wasn't even involved on Jake's until I was called in by Ron.
I think I'm the bad luck charm!
