The legendary Great American Scream Machine, even though it is not about the serious culture, it was become one of American people's symbols, so that someone has also dedicated the tribute. When in May of 1989 I saw on television its spot, I was a kid, and I wanted to give me from my parents a trip to America, only to ride the GASM. Not so much fun, but for the reason that it was one of the roller coaster more "artistically" well-made in the world (I remember the Italian advertisement, but it is not there on youtube).
I read (not sad news because these are not the bad things that happen in the world; now the world is French, recalling with maximum respect the victims of Charlie Hebdo) news that on July 18, 2010 GASM was taken down to be replaced by another modern rollercoaster.
Does anyone know if it was dismantled to be sold in another park in some other part of the world, or has been completely erased from the face of the earth?
