Chimpcoaster

Monkey Controlled Rollercoaster

Monkey or Chimpanzee sits in a very comfortable "enclosure" (not a cage) he gets to move around and he has access to controls for the roller coaster.

Maybe these controls are actuators on the jumpsuit that he wears a form of motion type control system.

the monkey determines the speed, ride duration, forward or reverse, restraint locking and unlocking etc...

your ride could take 2 minutes or it could take an hour monkey decides.

People would be discouraged from giving him sweet treats or snacks.

       The monkey should have a microphone in his cage, hooked up to the sound system. In case he wanted to scream or shriek at the riders for some reason.

       Man, you can make a whole park out of this. My favorite is the sloth's lazy river. The gerbil farm fun house is pretty rad, too!+

       If you had ever been to Blackpool Pleasure Beach (a misnomer if ever there was one), then you would mind these simians dressed in people suits running all the rides.
