Whos done the best things for an On-Ride Photo?

When I was much younger, my friend and I went somewhere and got chili with our meal, (I think it was The Chili Dog place that was where Ricochet is) so we brought it with us to top gun and he put it in his mouth on the stairs. He held it until we got to the pics and spit it out perfectly. We've never laughed so hard at anything, you'd have to see this picture. (We sit on the end of the back row, so we didn't cover anyone behind us) It was the greatest "puke" picture ever lol. :lol:

What about you guys?

Since you didn't specify that it had to be at Carowinds, I think I can fully qualify with this photo. Well, I'll give ya CRAZY & STUPID! Drayton Manor park in England is known for allowing enthusiasts to ride their Intamin stand-up coaster <a href='http://rcdb.com/installationgallery814.htm' target='_blank'>SHOCKWAVE</a> facing backwards while standing in the car. So, I thought I'd give it try. Let me tell ya, it was very uncomfortable and kinda painful at times. Nevertheless, I did it for the picture knowing this would be the only true visual memory I would ever have for doing such a stupid & crazy thing! As you can see in the photo, there were about 8 others doing it too.

I wonder if they had the on ride photo running when that group of nude coaster riders took over Nemesis Inferno (I think that was the coaster) for that marathon? I'm sure those would have been some interesting shots.

oh yeah that would win it :lol: . Me and my friend Glenn (who owned a website called Coaster Kingdom but then closed) were at Dorney and we put our heads under out shirts to look headless and layed down as much as we could, it was great. :lol:

I've seen a photo of that somewhere. Maybe it was the latest First Drop magazine. You know those Brits are much less inhibited than us Americans.

That reminds me of the time I was riding the <a href='http://rcdb.com/installationgallery775.htm?Picture=2' target='_blank'>Pepsi Max Big One</a> in Blackpool back in 1996. At the photo booth where you buy your on-ride photo they have a whole wall of photos tacked up as examples of what people will do for the camera. There was more than one photo up there where the girls had lifted their shirts exposing their breasts for the camera.

Of course, breast exposure isn't nearly as tabu in England as it is in the US.

One of my favourite pics is of two m/m and f/f couples making out on a log flume. It was just hysterical to see.

That must have been hard to do since the log flume has one, narrow bench seat in the middle.
