Right next to Mt.Fuji, and full of crazy rollercoasters. 3.5 hours waiting in line for 2 minutes of THIS: Eejanaika You just never know when you’re going to go forward or backward or upside-down. Guinness record holder in the top number of flips. FFFFFFfffffffffffffffff. Not my video, and it doesn’t really do it justice, but […]
