Good thing geniuses keep on coming up with new and unique ideas for roller coasters. Engineers just keep on aiming for taller drops and more twisted loops. Here are a few of the world’s craziest roller coasters that are bound to make you feel fear and fun both at the same time.

Top Thrill Dragster, Cedar Point Ohio. This one has no crazy loops. It’s actually a plain go up then down ride. But don’t get me wrong. This may be a short ride but it will surely give you a scare. The train runs in a dashing 120 mph on steel rails that stand 420 feet tall, with a drop that twists down at a 90-degree angle of descent!

Momonga Standing & Loop Coaster, Yomiuriland, Tokyo. Yes, we pay homage to the ingenious creativity of the Japanese! This ride may be old, but it is the first to innovate the seating of roller coasters. In 1982, Yomiuriland opened the world to the first stand-up coaster. As the name implies, the people stand up on the trains throughout the ride! Today, there are many operating stand-up rides around the world.

Tatsu, Six Flags Magic Mountain, Los Angeles. Steepness of the rails and speed of the trains are not enough to scare riders. The way you are seated also adds to the thrill, thus, people innovated roller coaster seats. Tatsu is a flying roller coaster. This means that the back of their seats lay flat on the rails overhead. The riders face down assuming a flying position. Because this is not a usual sitting coaster, you’ll get a totally different view. See yourself hanging hundreds of feet above the ground! Fly free to Los Angeles and ride this crazy train yourself!

The Skycycle, Washuzan Highland Park, Okayama. Ok, now the Japanese had their imagination going once again. It is not the fastest, it is not the steepest. But I assure you that this is the scariest and wildest ride you will be on! This is because there are no trains. You will be pedaling your way through the rails on a bicycle! Crazy scary!

Marine life holds an interesting collection, and people are finding more and more ways to get a close encounter with it. But some people are not satisfied with watching fish from a giant walk-in aquarium. They want to get wet themselves and swim with the magnificent creatures of the sea. There are various diving spots, depending on the risk you’re willing to take.

1.    Dolphin Encounters. Dolphins have to be the safest out of all the big aquatic animals. Being a harmless creature, there are many marine parks in the world that allow close encounters with dolphins. There’s the famous Sea World in San Diego, Dolphin Cove in Florida, Dolphin Discovery in Mexico, Dolphin Quest in Bermuda in Hawaii and many more. Think of a tropical country and they’ll probably have dolphin diving spots. Though safe, dolphin encounters require some training and educational session first. Fly to Mexico for free and start your adventures!

2.    Turtle Snorkeling. If you’re not up for dolphins, maybe turtles are a better choice. Hawaii is one of the places that offer great encounters with these cute green water critters. Like dolphins, these giants are harmless, making a safe and interesting encounter for tourists. Fly free to Hawaii and enjoy marine wildlife!

3.    Swimming with Whale Sharks. The world’s biggest fish and biggest shark can be found in Philippine waters and can be easily viewed from December to May. Don’t fret about swimming with these creatures because its name is a big misnomer. It is actually not a whale, and though it’s a shark, it’s another gentle giant. Its size can be intimidating but it won’t bite!

4.    Shark Expeditions. This time, I’m talking about real life-threatening sharks. Aquatica Charters in Los Angeles Harbor offers various ways to have a shark encounter. There are the caged dives where you can be in the same waters as the sharks, but you’ll be viewing them from a steel cage. Day and night, swimmer or sinker, you can take this aquatic tour. But if the thrill from a caged dive is not enough for you, you can get the Extreme Shark Expeditions where in you get to swim without the cage! There will be nothing between you and a fatal shark but water. This type of tour is obviously risky and thus requires expertise in diving and education about sharks. Whether it’s a caged or open water dive, LA will cater to your marine tour wants. Click here to fly free to Los Angeles! South Africa and the Carribean also offer these thrilling dives. Fly free to Bahamas and get a view of tiger sharks, hammerheads, lemonsharks and more!

Encounters with the marine wildlife can be intimidating and subliminal life experiences. It offers a different world of color and life. Just take note of whatever the tour guide says because these creatures deserve respect. Though some of these are harmless, there are some that enjoy solitude and do not want to be incessantly poked.
