Become The Favorite Parent & Enrage Your Spouse By Purchasing This Homemade Backyard Roller Coaster For The Kids

From WPVI:

A dad in California built a roller coaster for his kids, and now it can be yours.

Bruce Sales says the family is moving out of their San Diego home, and the new one doesn’t have enough space for the coaster.

So, he’s giving it away. There’s even a car seat for the little ones.

The engineer got tips from YouTube to help him build it, so someone with a knack for DIY projects would be a good fit.

Also, you probably have to go pick it up.

He says he is taking applications by email.

If you want to be a hero to your kids while simultaneously making your spouse want to absolutely fucking murder you, hit up that email & snag that coaster!

I mean… that thing is pretty much a plywood lawn chair with zero safety features hitting sharp turns on the edge of steep mountain terrain, which I think only makes it 10x more exciting. Plus, it’s FREE!

And it might not seem like much with such a short ride, but kids love repetition… You’ll either have a ton of new free time as they ride it over & over & over & over, or they’ll ride it once and get bored, but occupy themselves with all the boxes it shipped in for at least the next month.

Unfortunately for my future children (sorry in advance little buddies) this is about as elaborate as it’s gonna get:

As for the more homemade versions, I’m surprised IKEA isn’t selling pre-mades yet. You just hammer a few toogles into some buund-glackens, move some stuff around the yard, & you’re all set.

Really though, backyard coasters are very much a thing & if you look it up on YouTube *hundreds (*several) of them pop up. The video below shows a ‘top 10′ of some of them (but FYI: the guy has a monotone voice & the countdown doesn’t actually start until 00:55 so I’d fast forward):

Looking at all the space we have in the new office, I gotta say I feel like getting one here would be a hit. Also, I’m lazy & would just like one between the floors so I don’t have to take the stairs anymore. Dave, I’m sure you’re reading this… Please sir, can we have a coaster?
