Ultra Twister

This Japanese coaster seems to simulate how food travels down your small intestine. It may very well make your food go the opposite way. Sky Scream

A classic example of a coaster name that basically describes the experience. You’ll scream, in the sky. Hades Named for the Greek god of the underworld, who was well-known for his love of amusement park rides. Shivering Timbers The only wooden coaster named after the concept of substandard wood. Or pirates, possibly. Either way it makes it extra scary. Banshee A legitimately terrifying video, with a floorless upside-down ride. Takabisha Touted as the world’s steepest roller coaster, Takabisha has a devastating 121 degree drop. Its name is the Japanese word for “domineering.” Try giving your girlfriend that “pet-name” and see if she pushes you off a 121 degree incline. Helix The helix shape is most famous as the shape of DNA. Try to think about the work of Watson and Crick while you get completely scrambled on this coaster. Hair Raiser Or possibly Lunch Raiser, depending on when you watch this. Maverick The visible water in this video just makes it scarier. Steel Dragon 2000 A great name for a roller coaster or a pickup truck from the year 2000. The buildup in this is so long that it feels like torture. Formula Rossa This Ferrari-inspired coaster in Abu Dhabi is touted as the world’s fastest. Olympia This German coaster is both efficient and precise, though it does not pair well with beer or sausage. Full Throttle Sadly NOT a coaster version of “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle“. It does go backwards and forwards, however.
