I went last year to Australia and went to a few theme parks but what stuck in my mind was the Giant Drop heres the story.I saw from a distance a tall pin like structure with a cradle with people on screaming as it plunged so asked my lad Luke (12) if he fancied it so off we went,after walking up to the thing I though I'll get the best effect by sitting on the end (me being a veteran of bungie/parachutes/skydiving/mountain climbing).It was a row of seats and the restraint was pulled down over your chest.up it went and went and went...my feet are dangling and the view is beautiful but all of a sudden I think Feck this is high and its slowly comes to a halt and I'm thinking drop you ****** but it justs sits there then it drops and I feel my guts in my head and TBH I cannot belive I never soiled my pants.Only recently have I found out that its 390 feet!!
