How Do Rollercoasters Work?

In this episode, I go to one of Spain’s biggest theme parks for my birthday.
Between the screams, the speed, and the silence before each drop, I start to wonder how these machines really work.
Why don’t they fall off the track? Why do they feel so scary but stay so safe?
It’s a story about design, fear, trust, and how we find excitement in things that could never actually hurt us.
