The KK commercial shoot http://www.darktipper.com/KingdaKa.htm
60 + rides in 2 days ( the person I brought the 2nd day even went to sleep on the platform ) I guess too much for her  (I?m sure some of you seen her crashed out).
One of the other riders a older gray haired man rode in the 70 + I think 75
He was on the first (camera) train
Yes the 2nd day was cold and we had to remove our jackets. BUT
The most fun slight headache I ever had.
I took a beaten to get to 60 + but it was worth every second I would drop everything and do it again in a heartbeat.
I used to plow snow and had to stay up for almost 2 days no sleep that is how I felt the next day of Ka.
I know I will never have an experience like that in my lifetime.
thanks to all that made it possible  2 days I will never forget.
NOTE: since then I only rode KK less than 10 times

this is one of my Fav pics camera

Being able to take all of the pictures in this update, but especially the ones on that page rank up there now with the other times I mentioned.

There's so much wood there it's crazy.  Wood everywhere the eye can see.  188 feet never looked so big before.  Could you imagine if this thing beat out SOB?! :shock:  :shock:  :shock:

SOB is a huge stack of wood. The only other time I've been that impressed by a pile of wood is when I was in the Zeppelin Hangars at Lakehurst. If ET was another 30 feet higher...Agreed: :shock:

Just think, they would of beat out SOB if they had more room to work with.
