<div class="IPBDescription">The ejection seat at the Calgar Stampede</div> OOH MAN WHAT A RUSH!!!
oh gotta tell you guys what happened!
Well I'm known in the past to not ride just about all the rides cause I'm scared of them(well not the bumper cars though <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> ). Anways I've changed quite a bit since last time I've been to the crappy Stampede since I think its just a cheap outdoor carnival, anyways my friend was bugging me to go with him and his girfriend and brother, well I just aahhh what the hell I'll go **** so I went. soo long story short his girfriend is fearless and goes on anyride, well theres just about the scarest ride the ejection seat where two or one person sit in a metal sphere and get shot up like 5 storys or something (not sure on the hight but really friggin HIGH!) well they asked me if I wanted to go on it, and at first I said no, then I said well if you paid for me to go on it (its 35 fricken dollars!) I'd go on it.
My friend being a smart **** said he'd pay for me thinking I'd chicken out. Well you only live once so I said screw this! LETS GO LITTLE MAN! FORK IT OVER!!! so he paid and we waited in line (small line composed of like four people LOL)
I went with his girlfriend heheheheh he tried to chicken me out but I was calm and cool the entire time even sticking it in his face that I was really excited. When the guy opened the gate I RAN to my seat eheh also you get a video of you in the seat as well! they watched that live while the ride went on. Funny thing when we were about to get "ejected" the girl that was in charge of releasing the "sphere" said "see ya!" LOL well thats my story lol
*edit* god dang it typed too fast and forgot the y on calgary doh!

We also have this other one where u get strapped laying down on your front side to this big board type of thing. You then get lifed up about 180 feet. Then you pull a cable and you drop straight down and swing up like way way far away its so cool. Its basically like bungi jumping but u swing out instead.

I live near one of the 6 Flags parks, The one in NY. Although it used to be a privately owned park till they sold out to 6 Flags 3 years ago. But stil lots of cool stuff to fo there. I love roller coasters and that kind of stuff.
EDIT: Oops. It's not lol.
you can guess what happend. unfortunately, he didnt hold on hard enough, and he fell to his death. the ride video shows him slipping out of the seat.
RIP
not to put a dampener on your mood, just dont get too fat
