Some people have backyard swimming pools. Some have basketball courts out back. Will Pemble built a roller coaster just steps from his back door.

How This Guy Built a Roller Coaster In His Backyard | WIRED
What about at the end of the ride, the roller coaster goes through water!
I absolutely love this. Ive always has an idea, or maybe a dream, to build something like this only with a drop of like 50 ft maybe. 😅 I think im actually more in love with the form and unique construction of roller coasters than actually riding them tbh
My apprehension about the safety of this thing definitely went down when I saw the crash test dummy on it. A 300 pound dummy to set a weight limit – okay I believe you about your engineering ability now.
Hmm not the best ride layout i get this was for kids but if your putting inversions on it, place it towards the end instead of the middle

Interesting to see you here ela.
HI
need your help
One of these days somebody is gonna get hurt on that thing.
Champion!
Add landscaping and a “lake” pond
Where in Northern California? I am near Sacramento and would love to see this!
It’s not crazy to think somebody can just build one of these in their backyard one of the greatest coasters of all time was pretty much a backyard coaster the beast at Kings Island in Mason Ohio that coaster is pretty much a backyard coaster and it still running today and it’s still a great ride it just shows you what somebody can do if they just put their mind to it
That is better than a pool
Needs a zero-g-stall
I need more bunny hops with air time. I’d rather have those than inversions.
In the UK, 10 x 6 bedroom homes could be built on that land!! 🤣
