Magic Park Verden hosts roller coaster endurance world record attempt
A group of approximately twelve amusement park enthusiasts attempted a world record for continuous roller coaster riding at Magic Park Verden in Germany. The objective was to ride for three hours and 15 minutes without breaks, bathroom use, or exiting the ride.
The attempt faced several setbacks, including technical malfunctions with the available train and a medical incident involving one participant. These issues necessitated two restarts. Following a third attempt conducted in darkness with improvised lighting, the group completed the challenge. Including the time from the failed attempts, the total duration recorded was six hours and 15 minutes.
