Where is a good place for a theme park?

A good place to put a theme park is somewhere that is not too rural, but not super urban, and expensive. I'm doing a project, and I'm searching like crazy for somewhere that is a good place, too. But I'm sort of narrowing it down.

Like these...

-not too rural

-not too urban (b/c it will be expensive)

-somewhere where it will be easy to get to from numerous places

-somewhere where the climate is not unreasnoble (constant rain, hail snow...etc)

Hope this helps :)

Why dont you fall from roller coaster ride when we are upside down?

That is because the roller coaster is designed to accelerate you with enough force to experience more than 1G acceleration. When upside down you are being pulled down with 1G but up with more than 1G so net force is up, not down. Some rides give you 2-3 G up force.

Is it still safe to go to SeaWorld after the incident?

it is safe but stay away from the animals to be safe. You don't wanna end up like a trainer who died because of one of the shamu whales . She died. Do you wanna die? I think the best way to stay safe is not get near an animal because you could be next to lose your life
