Hey guys, welcome back. I hope you all are staying safe and in good health. I came up with yet another very interesting topic for a blog.

The Blazing Fury is a really fun indoor coaster. It does not have any major thrill elements and it is a very mild coaster. It can reach up to 22 mph and it is 22 ft tall. The ride in general, is meant to be a relaxing experience. There is one element that puts this coaster on the list. There is a 20 ft drop at the every end of the ride.

He added a full loop to the coaster with an engine-powered conveyor chain, support towers, and he even managed to decorate his coaster using flags. He named his
