People often forget busch gardens, it's one of my favourite parks  just a shame you have to travel a fair distance if you stay in the popular parts of Orlando (I-drive for example)

I'd say bg is the best for roller coasters but for simulation rides universal studios is amazing.
But then there's 6 flags etc etc with kingda ka love to ride that.

Montu at Busch Gardens is like Nemesis only much longer, last time I went there were no queues, you literally jumped off and straight back round. Nemesis is still brilliant but it'd be better if you got two laps.
Air would be good if it wasn't so slow, you always think it's going to speed up but never does.

I grew up near this place in Germany, loved it as a kid, but haven't been for 20 years.

Can't compare much to Florida. The mummy ride in universal studios is great I think
Incredible Hulk ridden at night in islands of adventure is just the greatest.
I wasn't that impressed with bushe gardens when I went but it was having alot of work done on it at that point.
Kraken in seaworld is good too

America had the idea long before they soon copied the idea?
How can some company soon copy an idea long before? Doesn't make sense.
Never the less, still a shit idea, and I wouldn't queue a stupid amount of time for a ride.

Nope. Perhaps Alton towers touched you as an adult?
