roller coasters
Amusement park attractions
Roller coasters are amusement park rides that carry passengers along a track with steep drops, sharp curves, and loops, using gravity and momentum rather than continuous power.
The thrill comes from speed, weightlessness, and controlled fear.
Figuratively, anything with dramatic ups and downs is a roller coaster: The stock market has been a roller coaster this year, an emotional roller coaster.
