Ship in a small forest of those from California, youll be all set. New noise barrier AND much increased height restriction. :D

LMFAO, I had actually been thinking about that a little while back considering whether the height limit would really grow if a bunch of Sequoia's or Redwoods were shipped in, the shipping fees might be a bit big though.

LOL, yes, but infortuantly the height restriction isnt actualy the hieght of the trees. The actual statement says that no rides should be visable above tree height. So having one 400ft tree in the middle wont do much good...unless it went straight up the tree and back down...LOL

Also, was there any need for the man dancing on the tree? lol

They could just ship in a few hundred of em and put em around then borders of the park, wouldnt that be a nice cheap solution.(note sarcasm)

Yes, you needed the dancing man to show scale :P

Hey ya know, you could always get some saplings and bio-engineer them to grow really quickly. :P

A big wall of trees would work! On more of a serious note, Would they be able to make a large indoor coaster or would the building be part of the ride?

Also the dancing man was quite useful.

I think the building would be part of the ride. People would complain that it was unsightly ect. if you had a big building rising from the woods.

If AT did bring in some redwoods, people would still probly complain. lol

BTW I forgot to mention, dancing guy comes standard with every shipment of 10 trees or more.

If you order right now within the next 10 minutes well double your dancing guy from not 1, but to TWO dancing guys per 10 trees. What a bargain!

probaly right of the topic but i think they should leave the height resticion as it is cause itn forces the designers to create great rides on a low level, if it was not for the restriction we probelly wound not have such great rides such as nemisis, oblivion or air. heigt and speed is not everything.
but saying this i think the dancing guys would make a great attaction if moved to toyland tours[lol][lol][lol]
