Would you take a ride on this hand-made backyard wooden roller-coaster?


Jeremy Reid created a fully-working roller-coaster ride in his backyard. It cost him $5.500 and 9.500 pounds of lumber and 7,000 Screws & Nails. Track Length is 444 feet, and the cart (made out of Wood and Steel) is fit for a single rider. Top Speed is 20 mph. you can see more pictures here

Haaa!  That looks very cool :) Mary wants to put a miniature golf course in the back yard.  I want a vegetable garden - watermelons, pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes (or tomatos), etc.

sure, what's the worse that could happen? it's not like the thing turns over or goes too high.

i don't doubt jeremy's creativity or gift for engineering, but I would not ride any roller coaster even the most popular and safe example, or even amusement park rides that spin round and round and move up and down fast. So no I definetely wouldn't ride this amateur budget rollercoaster. however i'd come to jeremy's back yard and look at it. I might even eat a corn dog with the guy!
