I also rode one up at Cedar Point when my son was a baby.Some rides didn't go very fast which was fine with me.
Thanks Tom!
It is a riddle and a joke.
--> Do a sharp break and bump the lion off the right side sharp drop-off.
--> If so, delete !
If you hadn't given the answer mine would have been ...
The horse is the fastest and the elephant the slowest...half the speed of a horse.
Only the lion and the kangaroo are slightly slower than the horse.
So...what's the problem ?
Nice one Jim.
It was simple and logical.
Jump onto the elephant!...Let the lion eat the horse and kangaroo!
Real swashbuckling stuff, you betcha!
Like the riddle about the carnival ride, Thanks,
