Death-row convicts, suicidals, terminally ill patients, and extreme sports freaks that are beyond all reality could go out with flair and gusto at this unique amusement park.

Rollercoaster -- Part of the loop is missing, but that's ok. It's part of the design!

Log ride -- The log is made of Pyrex and rides in a stream of nitric acid. But don't bring your camcorder; you'll get very wet!

Spinnaker -- Centrifugal forces will pin you to the walls of this open-air 100 ft cylinder, plus you'll get the added bonus of the ride's tangential velocity passing Mach 1! Chuck Yeager never had it so good!

Slingshot -- This is the familiar bungee catapult seen at state fairs that launches you from the ground into the air, however NASA has constructed a mammoth version on a 1-mile long bungee cable to test the viability of using this to shoot payloads into space. You'll be on a radio headset and will report if you see the Space Shuttle as you whiz by. Spacesuit rental is an optional $950 (50% deposit required).

       And the Shooting Gallery I presume lets Citizenry maim and injure the Doomed before their final ride on The Concentration Camp Train?

       Jack Kevorkian helped people who were in need of a death with dignity if they had no chance of a cure or a death with dignity, and he gave it to them. I don't think that the Doctor would appreciate this idea and just the thought of it is barbaric.

       Could there be some sort of "Shadrac's Flaming Funhouse?"
