            For those unaware.

            “Some early riders came back with lacerations to their bodies, whose cause was later determined to be teeth that had been knocked out of riders’ mouths and become lodged in the interior walls.”

              This is like reading about early oval racetracks in the US, which were made out of wooden boards: the drivers were getting splinters flying in their faces, aside from a host of other problems.

              A former Navy physician found that riders were experiencing as much as nine Gs of acceleration as they went through the loop.

              v2 / r is a bitch.

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
