You must be this tall to ride the ride.

This ride is not recommended for pregnant women and people with heart conditions.

Capacity: 36/5 persons.

I love extremely dangerous contraptions of the past. The accomplishments of the "Who gives a fuck, lets get shit done" era are still important today

If you're interested enough to read a tome of a book, The Path Between the Seas, about the Panama Canal, really captures that era well. I enjoyed it a lot.

The first attempt at the Underground Railroad still needed a bit of work.

That's a picture of miners in South Africa, at the Kimberly Diamond mine. Basically a huge whole in the ground.

Not any good pictures there of it being excavated, unfortunately; it was an insane network of cables and scaffold; people getting killed all the time.

I'm thinking those aren't slaves.

[–]Womec 21 points22 points ago

Miners, could have basically been slaves if paid in stuff that was only currency at the company store.

[–]camopdude 15 points16 points ago

But technically free to come and go at will.

Probably a large number of whites amongst them as well. As in this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pfVvqLM_e4#t=30

Of course, after you pay off your debt at the company store for your pick-axe and explosives and such.

Slave roller coaster. It tells you right under the picture.

I find it funny that the white men are in the back of the cart

They all have that "I don't give a fuck" Splash Mountain look.

Wait how was this taken? I thought you needed to stand still for about 4 minutes for a camera in those days to take a picture.

[–]edgen22 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I was thinking the same thing. That cart must have brakes, and they must be just sitting still...

I preferred the slave railroad when it was underground.

Could I get an African American gentleman to verify that it is alright for me to laugh at this?

[–]GoLightLady 1 point2 points ago

You only go to hell for laughing if you are white and your family owned one of these. Its fair game for ME to laugh, I have forgiven your asshole ancestors!

I know the weight of the cart alone, not to mention the people, would hold that cart on the wires but it still looks so flimsy and unstable.

I feel like one wheel is going to pop off and the entire thing would just flip and kill them all.
