Adrenaline Junkie rides Rollercoasters naked for charity
A rollercoaster fan has let it all hang out for charity – by taking on some of the countries biggest rides NAKED
Richard Jones, 27, rode Nemesis at Alton Towers in the nude after traveling across America and Europe to tackle 298 different roller coasters and clock up a total of 10,000 rides.
Richard, a supermarket worker from Churchdown, near Cheltenham, admitted the naked rides ”were very cold”.
”Ever since I was four I have been hooked on roller coasters. It’s an escape from time because it takes you somewhere you don’t normally go,” he said. ”Hurtling along at 80mph also gets the adrenaline going.
Doing it naked is a lot more difficult because it does get very cold.” ”But it was still a good experience and I will definitely be doing it again in the future.
I have broken world records and raised money for charity through my roller coaster riding.”
When asked Richard Jones said that he fell in love with roller coasters aged just four when his parents took him on the Zipper Dipper in Blackpool.
Since then he has ridden a total of 298 different roller coasters with his favourite the 400ft (122m) Top Thrill Dragster in Ohio, America.
In May 2004 he broke the Guinness world record for the largest naked roller coaster ride while riding the Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park with 112 other fans.
