I read that it would give the riders time to think things over, in case they realized they didn't want to die. The coaster would allow for those who change their mind to get off and descend once reaching the top of the hill, I think there was supposed to be a button riders could hit to signal the operator.
Wait... People would ride this WILLINGLY?! lmao
It was for euthanasia
Yeah, that's kinda the point. It's a euthanasia coaster for those who want to die painlessly while having the ride of their lives.
It was never meant to be built. It was a thought experiment. You shouting here shows the thought affected you in some way - that was one of the points of the idea.
But no, nobody ever expected this thing to be ever built, much less for anyone to ride it.
That's the point
