As a grown adult, it took me about 4-5 years, 8 hours a day, to get used to moving around at 24 feet up at work, with a safety harness. :( I had what they call "magnet shoes" during that time.* Wild Thing at Valleyfair freaks me out. Heck that old white rollercoaster freaked me out. Too high.

*Think if you were wearing shoes with hardcore magnets, and walk around like that. Big step, CLOMP.

You know how we're The Second Best Feeling in the World? Meet #1.

310 feet up, 300 down @ 80 degrees, 93 MPH. When this thing hits the brakes at the end it's still doing 65.

1. Those pipes are a war crime.
2. No spiral loops -- yay!!! Does anybody like those? I get nothing from them but back pain.
3. Beautiful use of the trees. We haven't been to CP and now it looks like we never will but I am impressed by how simple and pretty it is -- like old style parks.

The real war crime is the random T-rex from Dinosaurs Alive sitting in the middle of the thing.

Oh we got those too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb2H-8CQuyY

Though Raptor always beats me up when I ride it. Used to love it.

Get there. Do what you have to do. It is the be-all end-all of coaster parks.

I'm only a 5/10 on heights - it takes A LOT of height for me to sweat. I'd suit up for it, if I were there.

I love heights. To the point I don't really seek them out in a uncontrolled way. I'm afraid I'll do something ridiculously stupid and kill myself.

I used to hike around all kinds of crazy trails around here. Yes, there are natural places where you'll kill yourself if you fall in Minnesota. Hard for some to believe, but it's true. I dangled by one arm off Palisade Head when I was 19.

A friend took a picture of it. When I see it now I'm like "THAT WAS AWESOME WHAT A RUSH" but at the same time "HOLY CRAP WHAT WERE YOU THINKING YOU WERE NOT QUALIFIED FOR THAT."

Age. Funny thing.

I know this about soh from personal experience. He went over and sat on the edge of the cliff near Copper Harbor MI a couple years back. If he fell, we're talking calling in a helicopter to get his dead body out from the woods.

Aside from the obvious dog whistle racism the thing I see hurting Vince is his lack of funding, $100 million isn’t enough to get a league off the ground, especially a football league. If he’s short cash he’ll need investors, which is bad because Vince has an ego the size of Asia and doesn’t work well with others.

This is basically another McMahon ego attempt at trying not to be remembered as “just a wrestling guy”.

his shows are some of the top rated on cable for the desired demo. he will be getting contracts.

Something to ponder. I wonder if he looks at Dump, compares resumes and intellects and thinks, "well I mean... why not?"

Nope. Vince has always hated being a “wrestling guy”. Why do you think he insists on calling it “sports entertainment” or the wrestlers “WWE Superstars”? He’s always been desperate to be known for something else.

Jim Cornette has a good breakdown on Vince’s attitude and how that permeates WWE’s corporate culture: https://youtu.be/Ep62_gAmdZI.

IIRC, he HAD to call it sports entertainment because of sports licensing issues in NY or NJ or something, years ago. Court cases and such.

That was an element of it yes.

I’d suggest watching the Cornette video though, he gives a good breakdown on Vince’s desire of not being a wrestling guy since the 80’s (remember the World Bodybuilding Fed?).

The Top Comment switched, even though it still has the most up votes. :( I don't get it.

Anyway, I think my points were:

1. F-ck Boston
2. F-ck Tahhhmy
3. F-ck the Rots
4. They're going to win anyway of course because JFC Dump is president
