Imagine the biggest, fastest, most terrifying ride you've ever been on.....
Quadruple the size. Triple the speed. Multiply the fear by the largest number you can comprehend. If your calculations were correct, you have Cedar Point's Millennium Force. Below are a few pictures from my trip to Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio; no question the best amusement park in the world. If you aren't a roller coaster person, stay at Holiday World and ride the choo-choo train and antique cars; Cedar Point isn't for you.

 

Click thumbnails to enlarge:


The entrance and slowest part of Millennium Force. Hundreds wait outside just to get a ticket with a time period that they are allowed to get in the que-line which then leads to the real line.


310 feet, 80 degrees, 92mph. What else needs to be said? Notice the strobe light for air planes at the top.


A distant look at the train taking its silent 92mph free fall.


All you can see from the line, the gigantic first hill that towers higher than the Statue of Liberty.


The second hill of Millennium Force, 180 feet tall, just 20 feet shorter than the record setting Magnum XL-200.


A distant view of the 310 foot drop and 120 degree nearly inverted turn from the Gemini roller coaster.


Another picture taken on Gemini with the Millennium in the background.


Just a small part of Gemini. Any ride at Cedar Point puts all other amusement parks to shame.


The Power Tower, 300 feet tall, Your choice: get blasted up, or dropped down


Don't be fooled by cheap imitations *cough cough* Hellevator *cough*, your stomach knows better. This is the real deal.


The Raptor. Six upside-down turns: one vertical loop, two inverted corkscrews, a zero-gravity roll and a "cobra roll" that turns riders upside down twice, at 60mph. Kentucky Kingdom should make T2 a kiddie ride.

 

Well, that's not even a fraction of the rides at Cedar Point, I was too busy RIDING THEM to take more pictures for you all. Just go there yourself, you haven't seen a real amusement park until you've seen Cedar Point.
