Amazing Amusement Park Rides

Some amusement park rides are so extraordinary it's hard to grasp their incredible size and speed-unless you have something to compare them to. For example, the Steel Dragon 2000 roller coaster has a track that runs 8,133 feet (2,479 m). How long is that? If it were laid out in one straight line, the track would stretch across 27 football fields placed end to end!
