00:05The talented child star since Pulang Araw,

00:07the rising star Adelina de la Cruz,

00:10the role of Barbie Forteza.

00:11Here's Cassie Lavarias.

00:14Cassie!

00:15Hello, Kuya Chris! Hello, Mik-Mik!

00:17And Happy New Year, iBeliever!

00:21Hi, Cassie!

00:22I'm so happy because it's only been three days,

00:25and it's already 2025!

00:27That's right, it's almost New Year.

00:29Advance Happy New Year to all of us, iBeliever!

00:31Yay! Advance Happy New Year!

00:33Here, Cassie, Mik-Mik, I have a question for you.

00:36Do you have something that you want to do?

00:40Me? I want to go to the amusement park.

00:43I want to ride rides, like a roller coaster.

00:47Huh? I've never ridden one before.

00:50Is it scary to ride a roller coaster?

00:53Actually, it depends.

00:56Depends on what?

00:58On your courage.

01:01Because there are record-breaking roller coasters that are scary.

01:05So here, let's find out if you can handle these scary roller coasters.

01:12Okay? Let's take a look.

01:15You'll scream when you ride the tallest roller coaster in the world,

01:20which is 465 feet tall.

01:23That's Kingda Ka at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey.

01:28As for the fastest roller coaster,

01:30within 4.9 seconds,

01:32you'll go from 0 to 149 miles per hour.

01:36This is the Formula Rosa in the Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi.

01:40That's super fast! You should have a seatbelt.

01:43I have a question, iBelievers.

01:45What force stops us from falling while riding a roller coaster?

01:49A. Gravitational force

01:52B. Flational force

01:54or C. Centripetal force

01:57The answer is letter C, centripetal force.

02:01When you turn in a roller coaster loop,

02:03there's a force that pushes you to the center of rotation.

02:07This pushing force is also the reason

02:10why the roller coaster doesn't slide or wobble.

02:15Unbelievable!

02:16It depends on the size and shape of the loop,

02:18how stable the roller coaster is.
