Death ride down a mountain (mountain coaster, no brakes)

Ironic: I was actually paragliding in Meiders, Austria... I always wanted to try this

That's one awesome mountain coaster! I've only been on Jiminy's. This one in the video is on a rail. I wonder how you get to the summit. Is it a cable pulling the car & driver up like at Jiminy? If so that looks like one long ride up.

I'm guessing you ride up in the gondola
