Oldest person

I just wanted to know if anyone knew the oldest person to ride TTD because my Grandpa rode it on monday and he's 67!

Hands down our very own Old Timer Tim!

Thanks Dan! Do you that same math for your inventory?

I dont there age but I saw a couple on TTD the other night. My guess is around 70-75. they were up there .. but Kudos to them..

------------------
TTD rides =15
Time spent waiting for those rides= 39 hours.

I've seen many people in line/riding who appeared to be 65+, I think it'd be safe to say that somebody older than 70 has ridden it.

Thank you Tubby!!! I've been trying to get my mom (60) to ride and she didn't want to be the oldest person riding. Now to convince her that a 2 hour wait is worth it for a 30 second ride...

better watch out... they might put an age limit on the thing due to heart attack risk... or over excitement possibility

If they ever put an age limit on coasters there will be a LOT of us sceaming about that!!

I know people in their 70's who are in better shape than many people I've seen in their 30's!

You bet oldCPer Im 63 this year .The trick is to talk the wife into letting me ride the darn thing.

Health wise my doc says I m fit to ride I would have more trouble on the corkscrew or any big inverted coaster with a horse coller than Iwould on TTD.

cant wait:)

I'm not an old fogey, I'm just an old coaster rider..

Just as an FYI, there is an age limit imposed on Dodonpa in Japan (believe it or not!).

Wow. I'm mad at myself for even opening this thread. What a waste of my time for clicking on this completely useless subject, thanks a lot.

Well, Dick Kinzel is 63 and he rode it, so...um...yeah.

-Josh, who doesn't have to worry about age...yet

and apparently it was neccesary to post about your fault on the matter, selfish sam. if you did not want to read the thread, then why on earth did you click on it? why on earth did you post? a nuisance, thats what you are.

i wanna get my grandfather on this ride, and hes pretty darn near 70. ive seen some really OLD people in line, and one guy who looked like Steven Tyler from Aerosmith...

toledo blade has an article about a guy who is 87 http://www.toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20030909/NEWS18/109090094

There was a guy who rode with our group last time I was there and he was hands down at least 80 years old..I swear some of his skin flew back, fell off and hit me on the launch!

C'mon Dan..Tims not that old. Although if he'd protected his skin from the Sun over the years with a Sun Sports Awning he'd probably look a bit younger! ;)

Will this kid ever sleep through the night?!?

There was an old grandma who had to be 85 when i went, she was with, who im guessing was her grandaughter...it was funny thought because the grandma was dressed nicely, and her grandaughter was the punkest looking thing ever, she had tattoos and piercings and a leather skirt, and black hair, ha! i couldnt believe they were hanging out for the day.
