    Most physically straining coasters

    I love the Smiler, I really do, but I can't re-ride that thing immediately. Give me a chance to figure out which way is up, and I'm good for another couple of rides, but it's not one I can get straight back onto. Rollercoaster at the Pleasure Beach, when it was running without any restraints...

    Bizzarre Coaster Occurrences
