	Roller coaster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A properly designed roller coaster under good conditions will have enough kinetic, or moving, energy to complete the entire course, at the end of which brakes bring the train to a complete stop and it is pushed into the station.
		The first roller coasters in the USA were based on gravity switchback trains developed in the 1880s.
		Because roller coasters are intended to feel risky, accidents, such as the September 5, 2003 fatality at the seemingly tame Disneyland Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, attract public attention.
