No Way, No How, Not For Me

A roller coaster I would never get on:

It's called Goliath and it is at 6 Flags Great America in Gurnee, IL., by Chicago.
From Wiki:
Goliath is a wooden roller coaster at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois. Manufactured by Rocky Mountain Construction and designed by Alan Schilke, the ride set three world records for wooden roller coasters: the longest drop at 180 feet (55 m), the steepest drop at 85°, and the fastest speed at 72 miles per hour (116 km/h). The 100-second ride also features two inversions.
The ride was constructed over a nine-month period from September 2013 on the site of the former Iron Wolf roller coaster. Following its opening to the public on June 19, 2014, the ride has received favorable reviews.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goliath_(Six_Flags_Great_America)
Yeah, I would never ride this, even if paid a couple of thousand of dollars.
