MF's lift hill is so steep I lean forward noticeably on the voyage to the top. Anyone else notice that?
Also I sometimes make my own 3
inversions
by leaning hard right on the overbanked turns - it's pretty easy when you're sitting on the right side on the train. Throw in a little extra neck tilt and your brain says 180 degrees.
Just say no to trims
Haha. Oh wow.

Step away from the monitor, and go outside. ;)

I generally lean back on the way up. It's a 45 degree angle and a thing called gravity that make me keep my back against the seat.
We'll miss you MrScott and Pete
And honestly Tip, no one cares about how you ride Millennium Force. Most people just sit and hold on.
yea leaning over the edge is very dangerous I suggest not doing it.

Is it really that dangerous? May not be smart but I doubt anything would ever happen to you.

I've noticed a few people doing this on that last overbanked turn before. The first time I saw it I was like "Oh dear God, someone's restraint came loose." but then I saw them lean back over into their seat as they exited the overbank. It definately looks odd from the queue to see someone hanging out of the train like that. I've tried it once, didn't really get too much out of it though so I just went back to my usual hands in the air approach.

Pointbuzz is actualy not that large of a forum. And you have to consider it is 3:30 in the morning here in Ohio.
You want to know where I am at 3:30 a.m.? SLEEPING!

I do the same, lean out to the right.
The girl will not ride any ride on the side that goes with the banks. So I get the left on Maggie and the right on MF. I also get the left on TTD. After I showed her the video of it balanced at the top, she thinks if that happens to her, she will be on the platform side.
Walt,
I'll throw my name in the hat as a volunteer. ;)
I'm usually too busy being thrilled to think to lean one way or the other. I might have to try it next time though.
Goodbye MrScott
John
