Another coaster marathon

Not a publicity stunt this time.

Darren Brettell rode the Millennium Coaster at Fantasy Island for 20 hours last weekend, to help raise money for Cancer Research UK.

He raised £365 in total.

Good on him! For a good cause and a good reason to do it. I've often thought about doing a similar sort of thing, albeit for a different charity. I guess until it affects oneself directly, there's no need to raise awareness.

He deserves praise because there's no way I could ride a Vekoma coaster for more than 20mins, let alone 20 hours.
 
To be honest, the Millennium Coaster is a really good choice for a marathon on a 'large' coaster. Its tame, doesn't really do much, and is widely regarded as dull, yet it is fast, and has 3 inversions, so you can still get away with calling it an extreme coaster.

Now 20 hours on JO would be a completely different situation.... :tard:
