An 'Amusement Tower' is being proposed for central Birmingham (England)
The 175m [574ft] tower would have numerous intamin rides including an 8 seat giant drop, forty flight trainer capsules that move around the rim of the obligatory observation deck, a freefall parachute drop ride, Gyro tower above the observation deck and an 8 seat bungee drop ride. Also (guess what?) a high level seesaw thing as well.

Planning permission will be applied for in May

I can't help but doubt this ever seeing the light of day, but it would brighten up my train journeys to uni in Bristol!
