Do you love the adrenaline rush you get from riding a roller coaster? For those of us crazy enough to get one, we experience all our emotions throughout the ride. Roller coasters have the power to do that. They make you laugh so hard you cry, scream out of excitement, close your eyes out of fear, then you experience pure joy and even a sense of relief knowing you've made it safely back to the station...ALIVE.

Is that you? Do you go through all of those emotions only to turn around and get on that same ride again? If so, that makes you a bit of an adrenaline junkie, which is pretty darn cool! Some people choose to keep their feet on the ground and aren't interested in being scared out of their minds or laughing and crying at the same time. To each his own.

But for those of you who love the thrill of climbing several stories in the air, plunging to depths unknown, then rolling into a few full 360 loops and spirals at 100+ miles per hour. You'll be happy to know, that millions of people share your appetite for having heart-pounding fun and adventurous spirit. Once a year, these risk-taking, adrenaline-seeking people flock to the nearest theme park to celebrate National Roller Coaster Day!

It's a real day of celebration that started with roller coaster enthusiasts in the 1980s. They designated August 16 as National Roller Coaster Day in honor of roller coaster pioneers like Catherine the Great (Imperial Sleigh with wheels), J.G. Taylor (inclined Railway), Edwin Prescott (loop-the-loop coaster) Stephen E. Jackson and Bryon B. Floyd (wooden coaster), and many others.

Here are some of the most dangerous, death-defying, but relatively safe, coasters to try out this year during National Roller Coaster Day, August 16. Below is a list of the top 10 biggest, scariest, and fastest roller coasters in the world, followed by a few videos on even more terrifyingly fantastic rides!
