Best Answer

A roller coaster is called des montagnes russes (always plural), which literally means "Russian mountains". According to Wikipedia, the reason is that the idea for the first Roller Coasters was based on sled rides on snowy hills in St. Petersburg.

A modern steel roller coaster with loops and/or other "extreme" elements can be called un grand huit or un manège grand huit.

Verbs of movement in French are used quite differently than in English, So you'd say you were on a roller roaster (j'étais sur les/des montagnes russes)

What is the rock'n roller coaster?

The rock'n roller coaster is a fun fast upside down roller coaster that you will love. This roller is based on needing to get to Aeroesmith's concert on time for them to play. You will enjoy riding in a fast limo to go in a glow in the dark room with lots of lights and action. Ride it once and you will be thrilled to go again. Oh, at the beginning when they say keep your head back - KEEP YOUR HEAD BACK. When you go from 0-70 in 2 seconds you're going to need the advice. This awesome ride is at Hollywood Studios in Disney World.
