[Thanks to Mark F.] Passenger on a fighter jet, video (the sound is quite loud and you can't dial it down).
While I'd prefer that all that toughness and money went to, say, space exploration or education, there's no denying that the male lizard brain loves what military hardware can do.

Like to try that -as long as i was not on camera!
Saw an incredible in-cockpit video of Patty Wagstaff years ago -the visual of her very full head of hair flying up/down, every which way combined with the view outside was very dramatic. Here's a newer one of her, nicely produced video (maybe a bit long . . .) with some similar scenes.

Thank you Mark F. & Anon for these vids. Very COOL!! Wish I had the stomach for it! I can't even get on a roller coaster, anymore! lol!
It's quite a rush to watch the Blue Angels perform their acrobatics. I highly recommend it. San Francisco is a pretty cool place to watch them. :-)
Adulthood seems to challenge wild rides. A friend and me, then in our thirties, visited the Tivoli park in central Copenhagen. It's a very civilized little garden place, and we had a nice time until we took one of the rides, then we both got felt dizzy and awful for a long time.
