Maybe they're human after all.

Thanks to everyone for the pics and videos! I noticed Carowinds' Facebook page updated their profile photo - and it's the park logo with some Fury-colored track behind it.

The only problem is it's poorly rendered Arrow-ish track and not B&M. I felt compelled to create a more fitting profile photo using one of Jetp's great images:

If it's okay with you Jetp, I'd like to send it along to the park for consideration, lol.

another stellar Google translation from Chinese website... :)

"The world's most terrifying roller coaster Fury325 [highlight=#ffff80]look at the video to scare urine[/highlight]"
Studies have shown that people suffer from strong external stimuli (such as a roller coaster ride) was very easy to fall in love with the opposite sex. If this conclusion is true, then sat Fury 325 people should be able to directly get married.

Fury 325 can take a maximum of 32 passengers, after the start of operation, the car will slowly climb 325 feet of altitude, 63.58 seconds you have time to think about their own life, followed by a 81-degree angle with the ground plane of speed dive , followed by a 157 feet high and 91 degree tilt sideways horseshoe-shaped U-turn, followed by a huge S-shaped curve of rotation. Then double helix "Carousel", up to [highlight=#ffff80]hundreds of feet "Hump Mountain[/highlight]", the whole process lasted [highlight=#ffff80]25 minutes[/highlight], with an average speed of up to 95 mph (about 153 km / h).

Fury 325 developers already invested [highlight=#ffff80]$300 million[/highlight], which will be open to pick up the goods this month, if you do not have a fear of heights, the point can preview the video below.

The same story on another Chinese site translated a little differently by Google :)

It is said that after the sex subjected to strong external stimuli can easily fall in love, if this statement is true, then sat Fury325 people should be able to go directly to the licensing.

This is located in Charlotte, North Carolina Carowinds theme park, known as the planet's most terrifying roller coaster Fury325, finally going to open at the end, and [highlight=#ffff80]everyone premeditated good little heterosexual partnerships which bring it[/highlight] Fury325 a maximum of 32 passengers aboard, it will slowly climb 325 feet in the air, during which about [highlight=#ffff80]64 seconds of your time can be used to regret[/highlight], followed by 81° is the speed dive,[highlight=#ffff80]this time all your language is sharp called[/highlight],again a 91° tilt of sharp turns, plus a huge S-shaped curve rotation, [highlight=#ffff80]has been unable to estimate your mood with a voice to express[/highlight].

The whole process lasts 25 minutes, [highlight=#ffff80]once get on, can only regret what you think of[/highlight].

The video from the tallest Giga Coaster in the world are staggering. Make sure that your meal will stay in your stomach. A test video released in action and shows the highest giga coaster in our world causes nausea. Although the video below awe from beginning to end, we should also mention the initial fall from a height of 325 feet and angle 81 degrees which is a guarantee that you will feel your stomach on the ceiling.

Getting to test drive: This is the tallest roller coaster in the world. Adrenaline junkies take note: In the spring there is a new mandatory destination. Then take "# Fury325" its operation on - the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world.

Always open, that library. I wouldn't expect anything to come of my submission, but the current image is pretty egregious.

Edit: It's now the graphic for the opening day countdown on carowinds.com as well. It's a small detail but still a pity, as they likely shelled out good money for an advertising firm to miss the mark. Even GP can tell it's not the correct track type.

The library isn't always open lol lol. I think they have their own media division out in cali. That's why its generally Knott's footage in the commercials. Its a dream for all parks to have their own footage in their commercials but alas, too expensive.
