Very few devices in the world can accelerate you that quickly. This is one of them.
Top Thrill Dragster in Cedar Point, Ohio. After being catapulted for 4 seconds, kinetic energy alone takes riders to the top of this 420 feet summit. They fne-tune the acceleration with braking plates so that riders "just" make it over the hump. It is known that the calculation is off occasionally and the cars don't make it over and it reverses course.
I went on it - very cool indeed. The entire ride is 17 seconds. Fortunately, the line was short and I had to wait only about 20 minutes.
The cars shown here are already going 120mph and I'm surprised that 1/1500s captured them. Standing this close, it's hard to turn one's head fast enough just to follow them.
Anyway, if you're in the area, have at it!
