Illustration: At a Japanese amusement park, a roller-coaster car tips over the crest into a steep descent. One adult rider screams with mouth wide open, jaw dropped, neck muscles tense and shoulders raised against the restraint. Their hands clamp around the safety bar while their hair lifts with the sudden drop.
