Worlds of fun- Timberwolf

Worlds of fun's oldest ride, it opened when the park did and is the only coaster from the park's opening still operating (Oriental closed in 2005). This was shot with the camera on the front bumper of the coaster car, as opposed to in the seat. It makes the ride look more intense than it actually is.

Wrong, the coaster did not open when the park opened. It is the oldest currently operating, though. Screamroller/Extremeroller (Corkscrew coaster, later America's first standup) was on the site of Timberwolf, and was removed in 1984 for the building of Timberwolf. None of the original roller coasters still exist at Worlds of Fun

i like this ride although it gives everyone i know a headache and someone died on it trying to switch seats

@SplEagles Screamroller/ EXT was removed in 1988 due to track stress caused by EXT stand up cars so they saw that it was cheaper to tear it down and put in Timber Wolf..... now the 2nd most painful coaster in the park. Boomerang is the most painful to me.... physically and emotionally.

@SplEagles wrong. flying dutchman, that sticky wall one, octopus, and many others still live at the park.

@Lethalis1234 I agree, haha. I rode this for the first time yesterday since it was the only coaster in the park I hadn't ridden... HUGE MISTAKE. I had a horrible headache and my neck is STILL sore.
