According to one urologist, kidney stone patients could consider taking a ride on the Big Thunder Mountain roller coaster at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida , to relieve their pain.
Chu Lang-hsuan, a doctor in the Department of Urology of Taichung Hospital, said on Thursday that after accompanying a group of Rotary students bungee jumping over winter vacation, a chaperone suddenly had severe pain in the back and stomach about 10 minutes after the activity. Upon his return to Taichung, he went for a medical examination, where blood studies and X-rays gave a preliminary indication that a kidney stone had lodged in the urethra. The stone was about 0.
One of the more interesting findings Wartinger reported was that out of the three Disney World roller coasters he and his co-researcher tried, only one of the rides achieved the desired result: Wartinger went on to explain that these other rides are too fast and too violent with a G-force that pins the stone into the kidney and doesn’t allow it to pass.
In interviews, Wartinger went further than simply reporting the results of his study, to the point of actually proposing a roller coaster ride as an alternative non-medical remedy for kidney stones:
