Dyrehavsakken (or just Bakken), in Klampenborg, Denmark, just north of Copenhagen, opened up in 1583 Though it looked very different than it does now, the park originated as a "pleasure garden" of fireworks, games and live entertainment. But it was an early adopter of cutting-edge attractions, opening a wooden roller coaster in 1932—the Rutschebanen, which is still operating today.

The theme park Lakemont Park, in Altoona, Pennsylvania, is home to Leap-The-Dips, a wooden "figure-8" coaster that was opened in 1902. It's been regularly restored and improved over that century-and-change, particularly during a 14-year hiatus in the 1980s and '90s. Still, more than 70 percent of the original wood remains intact.

Specifically, Coney Island, Brooklyn, which debuted the Switchback Railway in 1884, in which passengers sat in a vehicle that went down a 600-foot track along the beach, up to a second tower where the car was switched and made a return. This was soon followed by the Gravity Pleasure Road at Coney Island in 1885, and soon the rides were appearing across the country.

You might think that a roller coaster stuck on the tracks is the sign of something very wrong. But Six Flags says that while having to wait a few minutes while a ride starts back up again might not be ideal, it's actually a reflection of just how safe the rides are. "While it may look dangerous, and generate media interest, these controlled ride stops are proof that our ride safety systems are working exactly as they should," says the company. "All of our rides are engineered to stop in a safe location."

Safety remains a top concern for any theme park, which means checking the rides constantly to ensure they are running as they are supposed to. According to one Six Flags employee, "Every day, before we open the parks to you and your family, all Six Flags rides and attractions are thoroughly inspected by highly skilled maintenance and operations staff.

That would be Kingda Ka in Six Flags Great Adventure, based in Jackson, New Jersey. Reaching a height of 456 feet (36 feet higher than the next-tallest coaster—Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point), it then takes a 418 foot drop as it takes riders along its 3,118-foot-long track. First opened in May 2005, it's held the record ever since.

“Dabblers” are ducks that tip up in order to feed, rooting through shallow water and mud in search of plants and insects. These ducks will also nibble along the water's surface, and they feed readily on land as well, but they very rarely dive below the water. The most common dabbling duck species is the mallard, but the northern pintail, American wigeon, and different teals are also dabblers.
