    Actually, your pronuntiation of Rutschebanen wasn't far off. The only thing you got wrong was how you pronounce the A. Fun fact: In danish, the word "Rutschebane" both means rollercoaster and slide.

    les montagnes russes à belleville was not a coaster because it bet you a milllillion dollars if it were built today it would not classify as a coaster
