Someone posted this on Bungie.net, and after doing some research, I discovered that this is legit. It's a rollercoaster that is 7.5 KILLometers tall and is designed to kill the people riding it. Do you think such a rollercoaster should be constructed or should it be banned by the government? I think it should be perfectly legal, since there is nothing wrong with doctor assisted suicide in many cases. Here's the Wikipedia article and a fitting video:

You may think there is nothing wrong with assisted suicide, but it is a very contentious subject. Such a roller-coaster does not need to be banned since safety regulations already prohibit anything like it from being made available to the public.
You could always just drive off a cliff.

On the plus side I imagine there would be no queues.
Kinda made me think of RollerCoaster Tycoon...

It looks expensive to build/maintain, and I can imagine lots of people having issues with it, so I highly doubt it will ever be constructed.

This looks like the creator's website:

I wonder if it has a camera at the end?
I would've just strung some cheese wire at about neck height, but I guess you can do that too.
A severed head can feel pain and is still aware and conscious for a few seconds. Beheading is definitely less merciful than this proposed coaster or lethal injection.
That does'nt seem to be a nice way to die.
I'd just shoot myself or something.
