World's Fastest Roller Coaster In Abu Dhabi!

11/15/2010 7:10 PM ET | Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True

This roller coaster looks cray cray!!

The world's fastest roller coaster is called the Formula Rossa and is located at Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi.

The ride goes as fast as 150 miles per hour and uses an "aircraft carrier-like hydraulic launch system" to shoot its coasters along the twisty track.

Just watching the roller coaster's take off even makes us a little queasy!

These arabs in the Emirates are so materialist and shallow. It pisses me off how badly they treat the indians, pakistanies and phillipines.
They are all the opposite their Coran says. Thats for sure.

There has been a ride in the US for a few years designed with the same hydraulic system. It goes 0-120 MPH in 6 seconds to a hill that is 420 feet tall. It is called the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. Lets be proud of what we have in our own country first

If you want to go halfways around the world to go ride in a rollercoaster built by terrorist capiltalists, go ahead. The rest of us are ok with DisneyWorld.

I think its starting to make sense why Sex and the City 2 took place in Abu Dhabi…. They were probably PAID to film it there, to make it look luxurious and glamorous, and to appeal to rich shallow women. There was absolutely no need to take the movie OUT of New York City. And it proved to be disastrous… There is nothing about Abu Dhabi that appeals to me, especially their cookie stamped, veneer architecture.

Look how well dressed they were, just like the nasty trash that goes to Great Adventure.
Great Adventure is like a Zoo, you go watch Ugly Americans in the wild.

Prince William & Kate Middleton's Baby Birth Will Be Announced On Twitter!?

Back when Prince William was born, the tradition was to post a note announcing the birth on the front gates of Buckingham Palace!

But times have changed, and William and Kate Middleton's child will be announced a bit differently- via Twitter!

According to Now Magazine, the news of the royal baby's birth will be posted immediately to the Clarence House website, which will automatically tweet the story!

But the Palace wants everyone to know, they are NOT planning on bucking tradition. They officially stated:
