rare pic of the coaster at Buckeye Lake Amusement park, Ohio called 'The Dips', which ran out over a part of the lake. Replaced a coaster that was thrown down by a tornado in 1924(an omen perhaps)? It had already had 3 fatal accidents when, in 1958, the cable broke when the ride was near the top of the first hill, the pin to hold it in case this happened sheared off, and the coaster plunged backwards down the lift and crashed into the lake with 18 people on it. This was the last ride..and finally another storm blew the whole abandoned, weakened coaster into the lake in the late 60's-coasters were such fun back then!
