The Mysterious, possible footers

It amazes me how someone with 1 post prior to this thread can cause such a tempest; but given that this is such good entertainment, I am willing to host the picture on my CMU account. :) This way no one has to deal with the free web hosting service pulling the plug when bandwidth gets exceeded. E-mail your image to me and I should be able to have it up by a little after lunch time. dtk@andrew.cmu.edu

What a bunch of garbage! A truck driver knows the height and name of the coaster already. Whatever. So prove us wrong Mr. Bean...we're waiting....

No one will ever see this picture because it doesn't exist gang..Why are you guys even feeding the trolls..Just ignore it and move on peeps..The guy has 3 posts total and obviously just came hear to get a rise out of info that is ficticious...

well....beleive it or not...i know that for a fact...maybe this is somekind of special flat ride...but to my knowledge its not a flat ride.

Huh? Whaa?

I'm just trying to figure out what you know for a fact here. I'm confused.

You know for a fact that it's not a flat ride unless (of course) it's a special flat ride, in which case you didn't know for a fact is wasn't a flat ride at all and really that would only be if it's a special flat ride....not just any special flat ride but the somekind special flat ride, correct?

Tell us more, please. Clearly you have a leg up on the rest of us wretched, mud-encrusted peasants. :P

While I'm at it, here's a monkey wrench for Mr. Bean's coaster train story.....anyone who's followed the MF or WT construction diaries will recall that the trains are among the LAST items delivered, not the first. While WT track was being erected in October, there's no photos of the trains until January 23rd. Check for yourself.

If you had a friend who was a tightrope walker and one day you are walking down the street with him and he suddenly tripped & fell, that would be completely unacceptable.

Once you drop, the fun don't stop!

What about the other guy who said he saw cars for a ride on the turn pike. Can he find a ride and a picture close to what the cars looked like.

There was no cars, track, or whatever spotted on any highway near CP or headed into CP. If someone were to take a pic of it, that's the first thing you would see. I know I would send it around to all of you if I had one. This cat is full of it.

"the 400 footer that was going to Heide Park now going somewhere in the U.S." Don't you think somewhere in the U.S might be Cedar point....What other park would get that kind of coaster.

Well if the footers are for a coaster, why start so early? With the web cam down they could be putting more footers in the area. They didn't start putting footers down for Millennium Force until september. The only reason I am kinda thinking 400ft coaster is you would have to start pouring footers and ground work really early. And Werner Stengel himself did say they were building a 400ft coaster in the U.S.A. So there is a chance. My friend said Cedar point has a news letter that goes out to people who own stock and stuff. It mention something about the new ride. I am going to read it soon so I will let you know what it says.

I'm afraid your friend is full of bunk. As a Cedar Fair investor, we get newsletters all the time. But I haven't seen one yet that details anything about any new or upcoming rides for ANY of the Cedar Fair parks until the ride is officially announced by the park. BTW, you don't invest specifically in any Cedar Fair park. Investments are made through Cedar Fair and includes ALL Cedar Fair parks.

Have a little patience. I had to figure it out. Here is the link.

sorry, but it looks fake to me. aside from the inconsistent blurriness of the cars as compared to the flatbed itself (which i supposed could be explained by plastic covering), there are clear perspective issues with the coaster trains. check out this quick mock-up, which displays the issue clearly:

That is sooooooo FAKE dude come on.

Mr. Bean:

Can you tell me when they planted trees on the RIGHT hand side of the causeway as you are heading into the park?

LOL. I think *fake* is an understatement. That was funny

J4 rule, I have spoken, seen, and heard dumbasses before, put you take the cake. First off, those cargo ships don't dock at CP, they dock in Cleveland and are then put on trucks and taken there, or some other ports in Ohio. Second, you have no idea what you are saying as far as broad daylight, and yes, most deliveries are made after the park closes, for reasons known to CP. Thirdly, get off of this I support everything everyone tells me, if someone came up to you and told you to jump off a cliff because CP said so, would you?

Fourthly, that truck+road with trees on the right+trains for some other coaster was pretty good, until I recreated the same thing in my imaging program with the same images off of different websites, keep the BS up your a** where it belongs, don't post unless you can back up your "knowledge"
