I haven't been to Canada's Wonderland since 1994. I was there to see a Depeche Mode concert. I need to go back some day though because I love roller coasters.

I've never heard of it. Looks like fun though


I have been to the West Edmonton Mall back in the early 1990's and went on the rides there. Not sure if they still have it, but there was a roller coaster that was so fast that you were literally pinned to your seat from the G-Force and if you had your eyes open at the time the ride took off, you couldn't close them, LOL

They also had a "Drop of Doom" where you were seated in a chair and taken straight up to the top of a really high tower and then just dropped at full speed! Now that was freaky.

They have one like that at Wonderland. I have never been on it though because the line is always really long and the ride doesnt hold many people so it takes a loooong time to get on.

Would you believe that when that ride was new to Wonderland that we stood in line for 3 hours for one turn? Yup, pretty nuts, but oh it was great!


I'm 60 years old and I've never gotten over my love for the rides. I still go with our daughter.

I believe it. Yesterday I was in line for over an hour for The Italian Job ride....twice! My cousin wanted to go on it after we had gone on, so we lined up a second time.
It was worth it though.

I was there once in 1994 or 1995...can't remember which. I was still in high school and there was a class trip to Toronto.

All I remember about it was Smurf Village and the giant mushrooms.


I think they closed that. It was also very cold that day since it was March.
