Talk:Magnum XL-200

[edit] Testimonial
the Magnum was always a fun run ride for me. But I realised I was "coaster spoiled" when I was so bored on this great ride that an inexperienced rider lost his hat. That does not sound ike much, except that during the first hill when he lost his cap... I caught it!!!.
I do not care how great you are the skill to catch some guys hat in less than a second from when it comes off is not just chance, but it almost divince. Lookm you are screaming your head off going down a hill at (what seemslike at the time) 800 miles per hour. And you happen to break from being 15 and your random life experiences to catch a HAT!
I know it doesnt sound that big... but if a guy on magic mountain yells "my hat", do you thin you can catch it?
really, the ride is blazing along, i see a hat flying at mee at what seems like a billion miles per hour. I catch it and calmly say to the guy 4 rows in front of me in mid-ride, HEY BUDDY! IS THIS YOUR HAT?!?!
I know no one will ever see this, but think how hard it would be to not only see someone losing their cap 4 rows in front of you on a FAST coaster be to even SEEE, but to catch it... What I did was a miracle (If God was shallow enough for my purpose in life to save a baseball cap!).
For example, imagine driving on the freeway down a big hill at 120 miles per hour and you saw "something!"
catch it and yell to the car going fast as hell, "HEY, I Think I have your HAT!"
How crazy is that?
At Cedar Point!

- Sorry, this isn't somewhere to discuss how someone caught a hat on a Roller Coaster, it's to discuss the article. Brag elsewhere, please! Darkhooda 20:03, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
Agreed. This is not the place for stories about hat catching. Teh Janitor 04:13, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
