CP on the Discovery Channel

I love to watch these documentaries of CP on the Discovery Channel, and I was just wondering who all is going to be on this time? If you are going to be on it, can i please have your full name so I know who you are when you see it. Because the last time I watched, they had families and individuals riding the coasters and they would introduce them selves as the "Johnson Family" and so on.

Cedar Point is the best. I will never stop loving it. You gotta, You wanna, You have to hold on...Cedar point hold on!! :) :) :)

Actually.. it was the "Rockwell" family.. if I remember correctly??

Please don't kill me Chelsea... ;)

Maybe it was "Rockford"... Sorry, can't verify it. VCR's broken. I do remember the man on the Magnum was Dan Haverlock and the man on the Millenium was Howard Gilooley.(mispell?)

Yes, the Rockholds, parents and two teenage girls. I know they have or had a Web site with family photos somewhere. Couldn't tell you what the URL is.

Are they the folks that said Raptor was built in 1995?

And yeah they need to get the coasters right.

I don't think that's it... I thought they had more family stuff on there. Whoever owns it, that navigation gives me motion sickness.

Yeah, I didn't catch that mistake the first time I watched it, but I did the second time.

Speaking of this didn't the MF guy,(Chad) said millie went 95 MPH during the first airing? The second airing, he said 93.

It is the Rockholds, nice try Rob. One of the daughters is the one who said the "2nd hill on Raptor is so cool". Apparently although ridden 545x I've missed this 2nd hill? ;) (Right Hooper?)
In the upcoming "Discovery Channel's 2001 Top 10 Coasters Show" I do believe the Rockholds again did the POV for Raptor, and I had the TOTAL honor of doing the POV for Maggie. Yes, I am Magnum Jo.
That doesn't even sound right does it? The show 1st airs on Memorial Day then shows now and then threw out the entire year.
The autograph line starts here! ;)

So Jo, what did you say about the 2nd hill on Magnum? Is it as cool as Raptor ;).

I have it on tape, and the MF guy did say "...over 94 miles per hour"

Jo, can I have your autograph? :)
