Rollercoasters are both terrifying and exhilarating but they are certainly not for the faint-hearted.

In fact, there is one particular ride that even the most veteran adrenaline junkie would likely be petrified to try.

It’s been dubbed as the “world’s most dangerous rollercoaster” built for “death” as it reaches 300mph in mere seconds.

August 16 marked National Rollercoaster Day and a resurfaced clip of one TikToker discuss the ride known as the Euthanasia Coaster is doing the rounds on social media.

In the video, @jakebsweetfacts talked about the ride that was reportedly designed as a concept by Lithuanian artist Julijonas Urbonas.

It was first designed in 2010 and the sole intention of the rollercoaster is to kill all of its passengers.

The ride begins with a steep climb up to 1,600ft where people are then given the option to exit the coaster before it becomes deadly.

For those who wish to carry on, they simply press a button to proceed.



The TikToker said: “You can only ride this rollercoaster once. This guy designed a rollercoaster called Euthanasia Coaster and it's capable of holding up to 24 passengers.

“Once everyone's on board, it starts slowly ascending up a massive hill.”

After the buttons have all been pressed, the carts plummet down the hill at 300mph before going through seven hoops.

The TikToker continued: “Each hoop gets smaller and smaller! It's designed so riders maintain 10 Gs of force for 60 seconds. Everyone on the rollercoaster's blood rush to their feet, leaving no more blood in their brain.

“This causes them to lose their vision and eventually black out and die. And it's designed for people with incurable diseases who wanted a no painful death.”

The ride lasts just three minutes and 20 seconds and at the end, the coaster returns to its starting point where the dead bodies are removed to make way for new passengers.

Taking to the TikTok comment section to share their reactions, one user wrote: “Toxic trait I def survive this.”

Another wondered: “How do they know it’s unpainful? It's not like they asked someone how it was.”

A third added: “I can't believe it's real.”

A fourth asked: “What happens if they don’t press the button?”

To which another user replied: “I think they go backwards slowly, or there's a tower beside with someone to unstrap you”.

The deadly coaster debuted as part of the HUMAN+ exhibition at Dublin's Science Gallery in 2011.
