longest time on a rollercoaster?

[Kage]

ok very weird question:
dose any one know the world record for longest continuous ride on a roller coaster?

Does that give the longest continuous ride Ollie, or just the usual "with breaks"?

Is it possible she's asking for something that you can't easily find on Google???

 

[Kage]

well you all might be wondering why i asked this question

 

[Pokemaniac]

Do you mean which ride has got the longest ride time, or the longest time anybody have spent on a coaster, with multiple laps?

A trip to the local library and a look in one of the latest Guinness books should provide an answer for the latter, I think.

 

[Kage]

^ i mean the longest time anybody spent on a roller coaster

and i have tried the Guinness world site and nothing

Here's some possibly dubious information...

"Dangerous Dave" completed the world record attempt with a total time of 24 hours, 14 minutes and 45 seconds. Well done to Dave and Twin Lakes!

That's for being on a fairground ride, which I assume includes roller coasters.

ok thanx

the only reason i ask this question is because i am going to attempt to break the world record for longest continuous ride on a roller coaster but there is going to be twist to it if and when i do it

 

[Intricks]

How can you add a twist to it?

Switching between the hideouts'...

 

[Kage]

well the twist is i am going to do it blindfolded

 

[Intricks]

....::snicker::...

Ummm...why? Wouldnt it be easier (and safer I think) to just close your eyes or take a very heavy seditive before riding?

Switching between the hideouts'...

How can you count down the days to Ghosterforce and be at home for when your costume arrives if you're riding a rollercoaster blindfolded for ages?

 

[Josh73]

Which coaster is it gonna be?

....
really?
why blindfolded? What does this achieve?!

Especially as she's planning on doing it on X:\NWO

To train, (this is serious), you need to sit on a moving chair (say a swivel computer chair wheeling backwards and forwards and gently round and round) with your blindfold on and for very long periods, increasing each period until you can last for over 24 hours.

Biggest problem is being able to hold a bladder for that long, but it's certainly not something that you should go into lightly.

^so you can't just get on nemesis one day and sit there for the next few days? Well ****, there goes my world record attempt out the window...

Alton Towers operates a no re-ride policy. Please exit the ride.

How are you going to organise it Rebel? Don't forget that the park has to shut so how are you going to keep it open all night and convince staff to stay and operate it for weeks?
What if the ride breaks down as well or it rains? How are you going to eat?

If you want to break a world record, why not just do something simple like sticking pegs to your face?

 

[Kage]

....

yes really.
well i will achieve a completely new and different world record which no one has tried before.

Which coaster is it gonna be?

i am not sure yet what roller coaster it will be as i will have to chose a theme park and ask permission to do it then the roller coaster at the that park.
but also i need to think about travel as well.
