Danger? That's What Made It Fun
-
It was, by reputation, the most insane, dangerous amusement park ever. I grew up not too far from Action Park in Vernon Valley/Great Gorge, New Jersey, but I moved to Philly the year the summer water park was opened. Good thing, because the place had... well, let this video's co-producer Mashable say it better: "A lawless land that was ruled by drunk teenage employees, frequented by even drunker teenage guests, and filled with rides that seemed to defy even the most basic notions of physics and common sense. Let's put it this way: The park had a waterslide that went in a complete loop. One more time: A waterslide. That. Went. In. A. Complete. Loop." Needless to say... AWESOME. Got any outrageous local amusement park memories? OF COURSE YOU DO. (Newark Star-Ledger; Mashable)
