Yeah, sometimes I get a little scared and I close my eyes but that's part of the excitement, part of the exhilaration and I still love it.

It was kind of sort of completely pouring rain, and it felt like we were getting pelted with coins. In a way, it really added a whole new layer to the coaster (how much of your body can you cover up at once?), but I much prefer the amazingly smooth ride as it was originally intended.
