Universal Orlando is celebrating a major milestone for its newest thrill ride.
The theme park announced on Saturday that 1,000,000 people have ridden the Jurassic World: VelociCoaster.
"We've hit 1,000,000 riders!" Universal wrote on Facebook, using dinosaur egg emojis as the zeros.
"Rode it on Monday! Wow, what a ride!!! Most thrilling ride I’ve ever been on," wrote one rider.
Another said, "Best ride ever I would do it a million times."
VelociCoaster officially opened on June 10 at the Islands of Adventure park but had been letting riders preview it for about a month. On opening day, Universal's app listed the wait time as hours long.
It has been described as "a series of intense maneuvers that will send guests catapulting up to 70 mph and more than 150 feet in the air with the swiftest of prehistoric predators" by the theme park company.
