Cedar point to me is the Roller Coaster Mecca of the World. I think it has over 15 Roller Coasters. And most of them pretty darned good ones, too.

there was/is this huge coaster there at cedar point when i went. i don't remember what it was called, i think it was "the mantis", but that roller coaster freaked me out. the drop was insane. it was the highest i had ever seen.

It was called the Millenium Force 2000. They measure that one first drop at over 300+ feet and that is higher than the statue of liberty.

Here's the link to Millennium Force. Awesome Ride. Was that the one you rode over there. It opened in 2000 I think. www.cedarpoint.com/public/park/rides/coasters/millennium_force/index.cfmThey also have another one that is 420 feet tall. Top Thrill Dragster is a tower coaster reaching speeds of about 100mph and it has a Vertical Tower that drops you down 400 feet. |

What a Moron!!!!Why risk your life like that for a hat. And to know you had to jump to fences to retrieve your hat is just more reason to wonder what he was really thinking out there. Feel bad for the family, but this should've never happened. |
