    I’m a coaster fanatic but I can’t see myself walking up a lift hill to perform maintenance or to paint. The guy in the video is so calm, I wish I had the guts, I bet the sights are gorgeous up there. Could you do it? I remember one time being on Goliath at SFMM and the third train kept stopping at the top of the lift hill. I guess the timing was off and so the train kept being held to keep distance between the train currently going through the circuit. I happen to be on the 3rd train when it was my turn and I was scared out of my mind. 255 feet in the air and stuck…there was no way I would have been able to walk down those stairs. Any other roller coaster scares on 6Z?

    Nope no way on earth I could I’m too afraid if heights. I start getting a panic attack and would seize up with the quickness. Which is weird because I love roller coasters, mountain biking, hiking, zip lining, etc. I love conquering my fears but walking a coaster circuit is my cut off point.
