Escape rollercoaster

And right when you start to think that rollercoasters are a terrible waste of steel and precious human adrenaline (rarer pee and even rarer poop), some wise guy comes up with the idea that these things can be used for some good, like... escape pod!

And that makes me think - how much would this rollercoaster thing cost to install in every new skyscraper so the events of September 11th are at least partially prevented? Not that I don't think going 100-150 floors below ground level is a lot cooler than building a skyscraper...

1 - Add a roller coaster to a launch pad? Good idea. As if an exploding space shuttle isn't exciting enough. (Comment this)
