Roller-coaster Record
22 Aug 2010 - People do strange things to get their name printed in the newspaper. I read that the number of roller-coaster rides a 78-years old man has taken in his life reached 4,000+ times. Vic Kleman, who lives in Knoxville, hit the milestone after riding a roller-coaster in the Pittsburgh area 90 times in one day. Kleman spent five hours on the Jack Rabbit roller-coaster at Kennywood Park. The wooden roller-coaster is celebrating its 90th anniversary - the number that prompted Kleman marathon riding session. One wonders though when Kleman started counting - so the record is not recognized by Guinness Book of Records. Big question: will Kleman make the 5,000?
