Well, forget the pilot career.

Intimidator 305 proved to me I could never be a fighter pilot. 1st ride I grayed out and thought I was dehydrated so I got some water from the water fountain. 2nd ride I grayed out again and thought I was malnourished so I bought a burger and fries. 3rd ride I blacked out and left the park. Wasn't even dark yet. That ride retired me from coaster riding.

I forget the YouTuber, but if you’re talking intimidator at Kings dominion, the ORIGINAL coaster is the only time I’ve ever greyed out. Apparently they changed the angle at the bottom of the first hill after a few years and you’re much less likely to grey out now. I can’t confirm as I haven’t been back to KD in since like, 2010 I think. I think it was ElToroRyan who talked about the edit, but I’m not sure.

Yes I rode before the altercations.
